| E8-20162 | Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Improved Retention/Improved Utilization | Rule | NMFS announces the approval of Amendment 72 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska. Amendment 72 amends the FMP to state that the Council will annually review information on the discard of shallow-water flatfish in Gulf of Alaska groundfish fisheries. After review of this annual information, the Council may recommend revisions to retention and utilization requirements if the discard rate for shallow-water flatfish falls above or below a specified threshold. This action is necessary to support the Council's initiatives to monitor and reduce bycatch in the Gulf of Alaska groundfish fisheries. The intended effect of this action is to conserve and manage the groundfish resource in the Gulf of Alaska in accordance with the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. | 2008-08-29 | 2008 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/08/29/E8-20162/fisheries-of-the-exclusive-economic-zone-off-alaska-improved-retentionimproved-utilization | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-08-29/pdf/E8-20162.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS announces the approval of Amendment 72 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska.
