View Rule

This action contains one correction to the Biennial Specifications and Management Measures regulations that published in the Federal Register on January 3, 2013. This notice corrects 2014 shorebased trawl allocations for several species of groundfish in the shorebased trawl allocation table that were inadvertently misreported in the Biennial Specifications and Management Measures final rule. This will result in a very minor increase in quota pounds (the number of pounds of fish this particular sector is allowed to catch) for several species. Historically, this sector has not caught the full quota of those species, so there is not likely to be an economic impact due to this correction. The following species will be affected: English sole, Lingcod N. of 40'10º N latitude (OR & WA), Lingcod S. of 40'10 N latitude (CA), Minor Slope Rockfish North 40°10' N. lat., Other Flatfish, Pacific cod, Shortspine Thornyhead, and Yellowtail rockfish.
