| E8-4810 | Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Prohibited Species Bycatch Management | Rule | NMFS issues a final rule to repeal regulations providing for a groundfish vessel incentive program (VIP) that was designed to reduce the rate at which Pacific halibut and red king crab are taken as incidental catch in Alaska groundfish trawl fisheries. The VIP has not performed as intended because of the costs associated with implementation and enforcement, the relatively small number of vessels covered by the regulation, and the implementation of more effective bycatch reduction programs. This action is necessary to reduce a regulatory burden on the industry and to reduce the administrative costs necessary to support a program no longer considered an effective means to reduce bycatch rates. | 2008-03-11 | 2008 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/03/11/E8-4810/fisheries-of-the-exclusive-economic-zone-off-alaska-prohibited-species-bycatch-management | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2008-03-11/pdf/E8-4810.pdf | Commerce Department; National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration | 54,361 | NMFS issues a final rule to repeal regulations providing for a groundfish vessel incentive program (VIP) that was designed to reduce the rate at which Pacific halibut and red king crab are taken as incidental catch in Alaska groundfish trawl fisheries.... | 0648-AV96 |
