Title: Pacific Island Pelagic Fisheries; Exemption for Longline Vessels to Fish in Portions of the Large Vessel Prohibited Area in American Samoa | |
Abstract: Current Federal regulations prohibit vessels, defined as vessels equal to or greater than 50 ft in length, from fishing for pelagic management unit species within the large vessel prohibited area 12 nautical miles from American Samoa (the "large vessel prohibited area"). This action would implement any decision by the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council on an exemption for longline vessels 50 ft and longer holding an American Samoa longline limited entry permit to fish within certain portions of the area. | |
