This book was released on 2014 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC), of which the United States is a member, develops and agrees on management measures for highly migratory species caught by WCPFC members and Participating Territories in the Western and Central Pacific Ocean. The U.S. Participating Territories include American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. The WCPFC may agree on conservation and management measures, such as catch and effort limits, that are applicable to U.S. pelagic fisheries operating in the western and central Pacific Ocean. This amendment to the Fishery Ecosystem Plan for Pacific Pelagic Fisheries of the Western Pacific Region (Pelagics FEP) establishes: 1) A management framework to establish catch or effort limits applicable to the U.S. Participating Territories that includes the authorization for the U.S. Participating Territories to use, assign, allocate, and manage the pelagic management species catch and effort limits agreed to by the WCPFC through agreements with U.S. vessels permitted under the Pelagics FEP for the purposes of responsible fisheries development. The Western Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) could also recommend and the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) could specify catch or effort limits in the absence of such limits or additional or more restrictive limits than the WCPFC for conservation and management purposes. The framework also provides for consistency review of Territory agreements with the Pelagics FEP and other applicable laws by the Council and NMFS, as well as annual review and specification recommendations by the Council. 2) This action also includes the specification of catch limits for bigeye tuna caught by longline of 2,000 metric tons (mt) per year for each of the U.S. Participating Territories, of which 1,000 mt may be transferred annually under agreements consistent with the Pelagics FEP and other applicable laws to eligible U.S. vessels permitted under the Pelagics FEP. The Council and NMFS prepared this FEP amendment, which includes an environmental assessment (EA) and Regulatory Impact Review. This document serves as the basis for NMFS to determine whether to prepare an environmental impact statement. If approved by the Secretary of Commerce, the document also informs NMFS in its development of regulations that implement the selected action. NMFS solicited public comments on the draft FEP amendment and EA, and proposed rule. See sections 1.2 and 1.3 for how NMFS solicited comments, the public review process, and a document overview.

Book excerpt: This book takes the lead in analyzing the essential fish habitat policy in detail and offers insight into how scientists and managers around the country are implementing and supporting habitat research and policy. In 27 chapters, this symposium proceedings presents the findings and conclusions of scientists and policy makers who have been working on EFH policy, and Sea Grant-funded researchers who have been studying fish habitat. Pacific salmon, summer flounder, northern pike, spiny and American lobsters, fishermen's knowledge of habitat, restoration of marsh habitats, and remote sensing of habitat are among the wide variety of important topics covered in this publication.

Book excerpt: A review of Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) components in the North Pacific Fishery Management Council's (Council's) fishery management plans (FMPs) should be completed every 5 years, and the EFH provisions should be revised or amended, as warranted, based on the best available information. The 5-year review that concluded in April 2010 evaluated new information on EFH, assessed information gaps and research needs, and identified whether any revisions to EFH are needed or suggested. Based on the 5-year review, the Council determined that new habitat and life history information is available to revise many of the EFH descriptions and recommendations in the FMPs. Amendment 98 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area, Amendment 90 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska, Amendment 40 to the Fishery Management Plan for Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands King and Tanner Crabs, Amendment 15 to the Fishery Management Plan for the Scallop Fishery off Alaska, and Amendment 1 to the Fishery Management Plan for Fish Resources of the Arctic Management Area revise EFH provisions of these FMPs. The impact of the changes under these amendments is not substantively different from that analyzed in the 2005 EFH environmental impact statement. None of the changes require regulatory action, and the 2010 EFH 5-year review concluded that no change to the 2005 conclusions on the evaluation of fishing effects on EFH is warranted based on new information from the last 5 years.
