        <RULE_TITLE>Restrictions for 2007 Purse Seine and Longline Fisheries in the Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The National Marine Fisheries Service announces the 2007 conservation and management measures for international tuna fisheries in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. The purse seine fishery will be closed for six weeks from August 1, 2007, to September 11, 2007, and any national longline fishery that reaches a catch level for bigeye tuna equal to the 2001 catch levels will also be closed. The intended effect of this rule is to limit fishing mortality caused by purse seine fishing and longline fishing in the ETP, and to contribute to long-term conservation of the tuna stocks at levels that support healthy fisheries.  This will conform to the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission recommendation that was approved by the State Department.]]></ABSTRACT>
