SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery Management Plan (PCGFMP) and
its implementing regulations at 50 CFR part 660, subparts C through G,
regulate fishing for over 90 species of groundfish off the coasts of
Washington, Oregon, and California. The Pacific Fishery Management
Council (Council) develops groundfish harvest specifications and
management measures for two-year periods (i.e., a biennium). NMFS
published the final rule to implement harvest specifications and
management measures for the 2019-2020 biennium for most species managed
under the PCGFMP on December 12, 2018 (83 FR 63970). In general, the
management measures set at the start of the biennial harvest
specifications cycle help the various sectors of the fishery attain,
but not exceed, the catch limits for each stock. The Council, in
coordination with Pacific Coast Treaty Indian Tribes and the States of
Washington, Oregon, and California, recommends adjustments to the
management measures during the fishing year to achieve this goal. At
its April 4-10, 2020 meeting, the Council recommended increased trip
limits for limited entry fixed gear (LEFG) and open access (OA)
fisheries for sablefish, lingcod, canary rockfish, yellowtail rockfish,
nearshore rockfish, shelf rockfish, slope rockfish and flatfish.
Pacific Coast groundfish fisheries are managed using harvest
specifications or limits (e.g., overfishing limits [OFL], acceptable
biological catch [ABC], annual catch limits [ACL] and harvest
guidelines [HG]) recommended biennially by the Council and based on the
best scientific information available at that time (50 CFR 660.60(b)).
During development of the harvest specifications, the Council also
recommends mitigation measures (e.g., trip limits, area closures, and
bag limits) that are meant to mitigate catch so as not to exceed the
harvest specifications. The harvest specifications and mitigation
measures developed for the 2019-2020 biennium used data through the
2017 fishing year. Each of the adjustments to mitigation measures
discussed below are based on updated fisheries information that was
unavailable when the analysis for the current harvest specifications
was completed. As new fisheries data becomes available, adjustments to
mitigation measures are projected to help harvesters achieve but not
exceed the harvest limits. Measures implemented in this rule took into
account fisheries data through the end of March, 2020.
The increased trip limits were requested by industry stakeholders
and the Groundfish Advisory Subpanel (GAP) to relieve some restrictions
for non-trawl commercial fisheries off the coasts of Washington,
Oregon, and California, and to allow increased potential for
utilization of available stocks where markets exist. The trip limit
increases in this action are intended to expand access to certain fish
stocks for the commercial non-trawl
[[Page 35211]]
fleets during overall market declines and state restrictions that may
limit fishing effort, and will help meet the current and rising demand
of smaller domestic markets that are providing fresh fish to coastal
communities and grocers. These increases to trip limits are intended to
provide some relief to coastal fishing communities that have sustained
severe disruptions in markets and decreases in tourist income due to
state fishery closures.
Limited Entry Fixed Gear and Open Access Trip Limits
Due to changes in markets and state restrictions, projections of
catch through the end of the year were expected to remain low, given
lower than expected effort and landings. For example, sablefish
landings north of 36[deg] N lat. were expected to reach only 40 to 70
percent of its non-trawl allocation under the existing trip limits
through the end of the year, down from a projected 68 to 93 percent
attainment through the end of the year, when 2020 trip limits were
previously set at the end of 2019 (85 FR 250, January 3, 2020).
The Council recommended, and NMFS is implementing, trips limits
that provide economic benefits for fishery participants coastwide, but,
primarily provide increased opportunity in California and Oregon,
because Washington does not have a nearshore fishery. Trip limit
changes north of 40[deg]10' N lat. for LEFG and OA Pacific groundfish
fisheries for periods 3-6 (i.e., May-December) are described in Tables
1 and 3. Trip limit changes south of 40[deg]10' N lat. for LEFG and OA
Pacific groundfish fisheries for periods 3-6 (i.e., May-December) are
described in Tables 2 and 4.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
The changes are expected to increase landings for most species. For
example, for lingcod, the current coastwide estimate for LEFG and OA
mortality is 212.5 mt. With these trip limit increases, total coastwide
LEFG and OA landings of lingcod could increase to between 258 and 289
mt, and ex-vessel revenue could increase by a high of $537,000. The
actual increase in landings will vary depending upon new entrants to
the OA fishery, full attainment of trip limits, and access to healthy,
stable markets. Harvest of these species' non-trawl allocations are
projected to increase between 0.07 percent and 66.7 percent from
expected 2020 catch under current regulations and loss of markets,
depending on the stock. Harvest is not expected to approach or exceed
2020 catch limits through the end of the year (Table 5). Therefore, the
changes in trip limits do not change projected impacts compared to the
impacts evaluated in the 2019-2020 harvest specifications because the
harvest specifications assume that the entire ACL is harvested.

\1\ Assumes full harvest of allocations in individual fishing quota (IFQ) fisheries, exempted fisheries, and
tribal fisheries. Assumes no changes to trip limits or RCA boundaries from what was scheduled to be in place
for 2020, as of December 2019.
\2\ Assumes full harvest of allocations in IFQ fisheries, exempted fisheries, and tribal fisheries. Assumes trip
limit and RCA boundary adjustments recommended by the Council are implemented.
\3\ These values were considered a range of projections due to uncertainty. This table presents the highest
projection from the range of impacts considered by the Council.
The projected increase in landings is expected to occur with only
minor increases in bycatch of non-target species, including yelloweye
rockfish and cowcod. Modifications to the trip limits are projected to
increase mortality of yelloweye rockfish, which is the last remaining
rebuilding groundfish species, between 0.6-1.8 mt. Projected mortality
of yelloweye rockfish due to the increased trip limits remains within
the ACL, with less than 60 percent of the ACL projected to be
harvested. While there is uncertainty in projections, projected impacts
to the yelloweye rockfish mortality in the LEFG and OA fisheries could
double from what is projected to occur and total impacts, when combined
with all other sources, would still be below the ACL. Therefore, the
changes in trip limits do not change projected impacts compared to the
impacts evaluated in the 2019-2020 harvest specifications because the
harvest specifications assume that the entire ACL is harvested.
Classification
This final rule makes routine inseason adjustments to groundfish
fishery management measures, based on the best scientific information
available, consistent with the PCGFMP and its implementing regulations.
This action is taken under the authority of 50 CFR 660.60(c) and is
exempt from review under Executive Order 12866.
The aggregate data upon which these actions are based are available
for public inspection by contacting Gretchen
[[Page 35214]]
Hanshew in NMFS West Coast Region (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT,
above), or view at the NMFS West Coast Groundfish website: http://www.westcoast.fisheries.noaa.gov/fisheries/groundfish/index.html.
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b), NMFS finds good cause to waive prior
public notice and an opportunity for public comment on this action, as
notice and comment would be impracticable and contrary to the public
interest. The adjustments to management measures in this document ease
restrictive trip limits on groundfish fisheries in Washington, Oregon
and California. No aspect of this action is controversial, and changes
to trip limits were anticipated in the final rule for the 2019-2020
harvest specifications and management measures which published on
December 12, 2018 (83 FR 63970).
At its April 2020 meeting, the Council recommended increases to the
commercial trip limits be implemented as soon as possible so that the
few harvesters that have viable markets can harvest available quotas
that would otherwise be unharvested during a lull in fishing effort.
Each of the adjustments to commercial management measures in this rule
will create more harvest opportunity and allow fishermen to better
attain species that are currently under attained without causing any
additional impacts to the fishery that were not previously considered.
Each of these recommended adjustments also rely on new catch data that
were not available and thus not considered during the 2019-2020
biennial harvest specifications process. New catch information through
March 2020 shows that harvest of these target species (sablefish,
lingcod, canary rockfish, yellowtail rockfish, nearshore rockfish,
shelf rockfish, slope rockfish and flatfish) has been much lower than
anticipated due to diminished effort due to current market conditions
expressed by industry and the Council. Without the actions taken in
this final rule, fishermen that have access to markets might find it
challenging to meet demand, while overall harvest will be much
diminished from that projected during the 2019-2020 biennial harvest
specifications process. Markets will likely take time to recover from
current conditions. As they do, further action can be considered based
on updated fishery data to keep harvest of these groundfish species
below their respective management points (i.e., HG, ACL, and non-trawl
allocation), while providing fishing opportunity to meet market
demands, through the end of the year.
These coastwide trip limit adjustments are anticipated to help
offset economic losses to coastal communities from state fishery
closures and stagnant markets. Coastal communities, across all three
states, would normally be expecting approximately $68.3 million in
economic contributions from recreational fishing between March-May
2020. Recreational fisheries closures or delayed seasons in all three
states will severely limit the expected economic contributions that
those fisheries provide to coastal communities. In commercial
fisheries, effort is down due to market issues, and the changes in this
final rule could provide up to an additional $2 million in ex-vessel
revenue to harvesters, not including benefits to communities and
associated businesses, from what was estimated without this action.
Delaying implementation to allow for public comment would likely reduce
the economic benefits to the commercial fishing industry and the
businesses that rely on that industry because it is unlikely the new
regulations would be published and could be implemented before the end
of the calendar year. Therefore, providing a comment period for this
action could significantly limit the economic benefits to the fishery,
and would hamper the achievement of optimum yield from the affected
fisheries.
Therefore, the NMFS finds reason to waive the 30-day delay in
effectiveness pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(1) so that this final rule
may become effective upon publication in the Federal Register. The
adjustments to management measures in this document affect commercial
fisheries by increasing opportunity and relieving participants of the
more restrictive trip limits. These adjustments were requested by the
Council's advisory bodies, as well as members of industry during the
Council's April 2020 meetings, and recommended unanimously by the
Council. No aspect of this action is controversial, and changes of this
nature were anticipated in the biennial harvest specifications and
management measures established through a notice and comment rulemaking
for 2019-2020 (83 FR 63970; December 12, 2018).
