This proposed rule would establish annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures (AMs) for bottomfish management unit species (BMUS) in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). The proposed ACLs and AMs would apply for fishing years 2026 through 2029 under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act; 16 U.S.C. 1801, et seq.). Consistent with the process outlined in the Fishery Ecosystem Plan for the Mariana Archipelago (FEP) and implementing regulations at 50 CFR 665.4, the Western Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) recommended an ACL of 72,000 lb and an ACT of 66,000 lb for fishing years 2026 through 2029. The fishing year is January 1 through December 31. As a post-season AM, catch in the fishery would be evaluated after each fishing year to determine if the average catch of the three most recent years exceeds the ACL. If it does, NMFS would reduce the ACL and ACT in the subsequent year equal to the amount of the overage through a separate rulemaking action. The proposed rule supports the long-term sustainability of the fishery through the combination of ACLs, ACTs and AMs.
