The Spring Gulf of Mexico and Northeastern United States Monitoring Areas for bluefin tuna will continue to be open to fishing with pelagic longline gear from April 1-May 30, 2021 and June 1-June 30, 2021.
This action reduces the Atlantic herring quotas for 2021-2023 as compared to 2020, and modifies in-season management measures to allow the Atlantic herring fleet more access to the Atlantic mackerel fishery.
Today we are announcing, through a final rule, the amount of allocation each sector may carry over from the 2019 to 2020 fishing year, which ends April 30, 2021. This rule also corrects minor errors published in Framework Adjustment 59.
