SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Agenda

Monday, December 6, 2021

    The Charter Halibut Management Committee will meet to discuss and 
recommend charter halibut management measures in International Pacific 
Halibut Commission (IPHC) Areas 2C and 3A for 2022. The Committee will 
first review the ADF&G analysis for projected charter removals for 2022 
under different management scenarios to determine the measures that may 
be required to keep the charter halibut sector under its allocation. 
Since the allocations are set after the IPHC first determines the area 
apportionments for halibut, the Committee will indicate a range of 
preferred management measures contingent on where the charter halibut 
catch limit is set. The Committee will also discuss upcoming meetings 
and any other business. The agenda is subject to change, and the latest 
version will be posted at: https://meetings.npfmc.org/Meeting/Details/2561 prior to the meeting, along with meeting materials.
