Title: ●Establish an Interim 2016 Pacific Coast Tribal Pacific Whiting Allocation 
Abstract: The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is preparing its annual proposed rule for the tribal Pacific whiting (whiting) fishery off the coast of the state of Washington. The purpose would be to establish an interim 2016 tribal whiting allocation. NMFS is developing this proposed rule after discussions with the affected tribes and in consideration of the non-tribal fisheries interests. As in prior years, this allocation is an interim allocation that is not intended to set precedent for future years. The allocation is similar to previous years.
