Title: Modify American Lobster Regulations Under Atlantic Coastal Fisheries Cooperative Management Act | |
Abstract: This action would provide an exemption from the lobster trap regulations to black sea bass fishers in the southernmost lobster management area. The action would grant an option to substitute (for the gear restrictions) an incidental allowance equal to 100 lobsters per day to a maximum of five days to vessels having limited access eligibility in both the black sea bass and lobster fisheries and fishing in lobster management area 5. The program would be implemented through a new lobster permit category and provides dual black sea bass and lobster fishers an opportunity to fish as closely to historical practices as possible. | |
