This book was released on 2019-01-07 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law Library presents the complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery - Framework Adjustment 22 (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 NMFS is implementing measures specified in Framework Adjustment 22 (Framework 22) to the Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery Management Plan (FMP), which was developed and adopted by the New England Fishery Management Council (Council). The specifications in Framework 22 are based on, and are being implemented in conjunction with, the management measures in Amendment 15 to the FMP (Amendment 15) that establish the process for setting annual catch limits (ACLs) and accountability measures (AMs) to bring the FMP into compliance with the requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA). The purpose of Framework 22 is to set the following scallop management measures for the 2011 through 2013 fishing years (FYs): The overfishing limit (OFL), acceptable biological catches (ABC), ACLs, and annual catch targets (ACTs) for both the limited access (LA) and limited access general category (LAGC) fleets; open area days-at-sea (DAS) and Sea Scallop Access Area (access area) trip allocations; DAS adjustments if an access area yellowtail flounder (YTF) total allowable catch (TAC) is caught; LAGC-specific allocations, including access area trip allocations for vessels with individual fishing quotas (IFQs), the Northern Gulf of Maine (NGOM) TAC, and the incidental target TAC; management measures to minimize impacts of incidental take of sea turtles as required by the March 14, 2008, Atlantic Sea Scallop Biological Opinion (Biological Opinion); and the elimination of the default Georges Bank (GB) access area rotation schedule. Consistent with proposed measures in Amendment 15, Framework 22 sets FY 2013 management measures as precautionary default measures, to be applied if a new biennial framework adjustment is not implemented by the start of FY 2013. This ebook contains: - The complete text of the Fisheries of the Northeastern United States - Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery - Framework Adjustment 22 (US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Regulation) (NOAA) (2018 Edition) - A dynamic table of content linking to each section - A table of contents in introduction presenting a general overview of the structure

Book excerpt: "This emergency action closes the Delmarva Scallop Access Area and redistributes vessel trips from this area to the Closed Area I Access Area for the 2012 fishing year. This closure prevents potentially high levels of scallop fishing in this area, which could reduce long- term scallop biomass and yield from Delmarva, and could compromise the overall success of the scallop area rotational management program"--Cover letter; Portfolio comprised of two related PDF documents digitized and organized by: NOAA Office of Program Planning and Integration (PPI) National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) staff.
Download or read book Sea Scallop Stock Assessment Update for 2005 written by Deborah R. Hart and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This report is an updated assessment of U.S. sea scallops, using data through the end of the 2005 calendar year. The methodology used here is identical to that used in the last fully peer-reviewed stock assessment (NEFSC 2004), but is updated to include two more calendar years of landings and fishery-independent survey data (2004-2005). The Atlantic sea scallop, Placopecten magellanicus, occurs in continental shelf waters of the Northwest Atlantic between Cape Hatteras and Newfoundland. It supports one of the most valuable fisheries in the United States, with an ex-vessel value in 2005 of over $430 million, and is the most valuable wild scallop fishery in the world. Major commercial concentrations of sea scallops in U.S. waters occur in the Mid-Atlantic Bight (Virginia to Long Island), on Georges Bank and surrounding areas (including the Great South Channel and Nantucket Shoals), and near-shore areas in the Gulf of Maine"--Introduction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Rebuilding depleted stocks is a central part of the fisheries governance agenda. By analysing the available literature, Part 1 of "Rebuilding of marine fisheries" provides a global review of the emergence of the rebuilding paradigm, its key concepts, the trends in fishery resources, and the empirical evidence available on stocks depletion, collapse and rebuilding. It addresses the bio-ecological, economic, and human dimensions of rebuilding or restoration of stocks, multispecies assemblages and habitats/ecosystems and touches on the need for rebuilding at the whole sector level when depletion has become widespread and chronic. The human imensions of stocks and fisheries are given particular attention, looking at conflicting objectives, the bio-economy of rebuilding, its costs and benefits, and the distributional effects of the related reform among actors with their potential social consequences in the short and long terms. Governance is addressed in detail: legal and policy frameworks; rationale and objectives of a rebuilding regime; alternative rebuilding strategies; reference values and protocols; regulatory time-frames; risk management and harvest control rules; impacts of climatic oscillations; management tool-box; implementation guidance and performance evaluation. The document ends with a review of the determinants of success of a rebuilding programme."--Publisher's description for part 1.

Download or read book The Sunken Billions Revisited written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report updates previous studies that measured in economic terms the extent of biological losses attributable to overfishing globally. The new estimates assess these 'sunken billions' at $83 billion annually. The report further shows that a clear path can lead to the recovery of these considerable losses, including through significant reduction in global fishing overcapacity. A breakdown between regions is also included, showing that the effort needed to achieve this reform will not be felt equally throughout the world. While the cost of such reform will likely be high, the expected benefits include an increase in biomass by a factor of 2.7, increase in annual harvests by 13 percent, and a 30-fold increase in annual net benefits accrued to the fisheries sector (from $3 billion to $86 billion annually). This urgent call for action is reinforced by the impacts of climate change on fish stocks and fisheries worldwide.
Download or read book Atlantic Sea Scallop Placopecten Magellanicus Maturation on Georges Bank During 1993 written by Frank P. Almeida and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sea scallop gonad samples collected by U.S. commercial scallop vessels fishing Georges Bank during January-August 1993 were analyzed macroscopically and histologically to determine maturity stage and time of spawning on the bank. Reports of a possible winter-early spring spawn on Georges Bank prompted the analysis, which has important biological and management implications. The analyses indicated a general progression from early developmental stages iwinter earlyly spring to ripe in July-August. Gonadosomatic indices indicated a steady progression of maturatIon during July-August. There was, however. a single male scallop, collected south of Martha's Vineyard in early February, that appeared to be actively spawning and two females collected from the Great South Channel area east of Chatham, Mass. in early May in a late developing stage. It is not known whether these three scallops were contributing to a spring spawn in the Southem New England area or on Georges Bank, or were simply maturing earlier during 1993 in response to environmental conditions.
