Title: ●Special Management Zone Designation for 13 Artificial Reef Sites in the Exclusive Economic Zone | |
Abstract: In response to a Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council recommendation, NMFS has proposed management measures to implement Special Management Zones for 13 New Jersey artificial reefs under the black sea bass provisions of the Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Fishery Management Plan. The implementing regulations for the Special Management Zones require NMFS to publish proposed measures to provide an opportunity for public comment. The intent of these measures is to promote orderly use of the resource by reducing user group conflicts, and help maintain the intended socioeconomic benefits of the artificial reefs to the maximum extent practicable. | |
