Title: Generic Amendment Addressing the Establishment of the Tortugas Marine Reserves Under the Fishery Management Plans of the Gulf of Mexico | |
Abstract: The Generic Tortugas Amendment would amend the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council's fishery management plans to establish a marine reserve for Riley's Hump (Tortugas South) and for the part of the Tortugas north area that is within the Council's jurisdiction (the Tortugas Ecological Reserve). The Generic Tortugas Amendment would prohibit fishing for any species and the anchoring of fishing vessels within the reserves. Along with regulations issued by the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (under NOAA's National Ocean Service), the Generic Tortugas Amendment would protect unique and valuable reef resources. | |
