Title: Amendment 45 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico 
Abstract: The Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council developed and implemented separate federal for-hire and private angling components for red snapper management measures to better prevent overfishing while achieving the optimum yield. Amendment 40 defined the components, allocated the recreational red snapper quota between the components, and established a three-year sunset provision for the components. The purpose of this action was to extend the sector separation sunset provision established in Amendment 40 for five additional years to allow completion of component-focused management strategies.
