Amendment 89 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska Area Closures for Tanner Crab (Chionoecetes bairdi) Protection
This EA/RIR/IRFA analyzes the impacts of four alternatives to close specific areas of the Central Gulf of Alaska Regulatory Area (Central GOA) to the use of trawl gear and pot gear or as a suboption, in lieu of a closure to require additional observer coverage in these areas. Based on the Council’s...
