Title: Amendment 7 to the South Atlantic Shrimp Fishery Management Plan 
Abstract: The South Atlantic Fishery Management Council is proposing to take action to maintain a viable rock shrimp fishery in the South Atlantic region. Actions in the amendment would: 1) Remove the 15,000-pound landing requirement; 2) reinstate all endorsements lost due to not meeting the landing requirement in one of four consecutive calendar years; 3) reinstate limited access endorsements for vessel owners who renewed their open access permit in the year in which they failed to renew their limited access endorsement; 4) rename the limited access endorsement and the open access permit of the existing permit system to reduce confusion; and 5) require all South Atlantic shrimp permit holders to provide economic data if selected.
