<p>The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic - Comprehensive Annual Catch Limit Amendment for South Atlantic (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition).</p><p>Updated as of May 29, 2018</p><p></p><p>NMFS issues this final rule to implement the Comprehensive Annual Catch Limit Amendment (Comprehensive ACL Amendment) to the Fishery Management Plans (FMPs) for the Snapper-Grouper Fishery of the South Atlantic Region (Snapper-Grouper FMP), the Golden Crab Fishery of the South Atlantic Region (Golden Crab FMP), the Dolphin and Wahoo Fishery off the Atlantic States (Dolphin and Wahoo FMP), and the Pelagic Sargassum Habitat of the South Atlantic Region (Sargassum FMP) as prepared and submitted by the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council (Council). This final rule specifies annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures (AMs) for species in the Snapper-Grouper, Dolphin and Wahoo, and Golden Crab FMPs. This final rule also describes the current terminology and measures in place in the Sargassum FMP that are equivalent to ACLs and AMs. For Sargassum, this final rule does not specifically set an ACL because there is currently a commercial quota in place which functions as an ACL, and there are commercial closure provisions in the event the quota is met or projected to be met which functions as an AM. To implement the Snapper-Grouper FMP, this final rule revises the snapper-grouper fishery management unit (FMU), including the removal of some species, designation of ecosystem component (EC) species, and the development of species groups. This final rule also establishes a daily vessel limit for the recreational possession of wreckfish and creates a closed season for the wreckfish recreational sector. To implement the Dolphin and Wahoo FMP, this final rule prohibits recreational bag limit sales of dolphin from for-hire vessels, and sets a minimum size limit for dolphin off South Carolina that complements the existing minimum size limit off Georgia and Florida. The intent of this final rule is to specify ACLs for species not undergoing overfishing while maintaining catch levels consistent with achieving optimum yield (OY) for the resource.</p><p></p><p>This ebook contains: </p><p>- The complete text of the Fisheries of Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and South Atlantic - Comprehensive Annual Catch Limit Amendment for South Atlantic (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition)</p><p>- A dynamic table of content linking to each section</p><p>- A table of contents in introduction presenting a general overview of the structure</p><p></p>
