This proposed action is based on a review of satellite tagging studies depicting endangered short-tailed albatrosses ’ usage of Bering Sea habitat and hook-and-line fisheries ’ spatial and temporal harvest of Pacific halibut and Pacific cod in the eastern Bering Sea. This seabird/fisheries interaction analysis concludes that the requirement of using seabird avoidance measures in a portion of IPHC area 4E may be unnecessary due to limited usage of this area by seabirds of conservation concern, and in particular, a low probability of fishing vessels encountering short-tailed albatrosses. Alternatives in this analysis eliminate or modify the required use of seabird avoidance measures for different vessel size classes in IPHC Area 4E. The objective of this proposed regulatory amendment is to improve the efficiency of current seabird avoidance requirements by relieving unnecessary regulatory burden and its associated costs in areas where the incidental take of short-tailed albatrosses and other species of conservation concern is extremely low.
