NMFS proposes an emergency rule under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) to implement measures intended to reduce overfishing on species managed under the NE Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). This proposed rule would continue measures specified in the Settlement Agreement Among Certain Parties (Settlement Agreement), which were implemented as ordered by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (Court) in a Remedial Order issued on May 23, 2002 (Order). These measures include: a freeze on days-at- sea (DAS) at the highest annual level used from fishing years 1996-2000 and a 20-percent cut from that level; a freeze on the issuance of new open access Hand-gear permits; gear restrictions; modifications and additions to closure areas; and restrictions on yellowtail flounder catch. In addition, this rule would implement a NE Multispecies DAS Leasing Program (Program), which is being proposed to mitigate impacts of these measures and to provide flexibility to some segments of the fishing industry. NMFS and two of the plaintiffs filed a motion with the Court requesting an extension of the August 22, 2003, implementation schedule until May 1, 2004. The Court granted an extension of the Court-ordered timeline for Amendment implementation until May 1, 2004. This emergency action is necessary to ensure that the regulations governing the NE multispecies fishery continue to be in compliance with the Court's Order.

Proposed emergency rule; request for comments.
NMFS proposes an emergency rule under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) to implement measures intended to reduce overfishing on species managed under the NE Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). This proposed rule would continue measures specified in the Settlement Agreement Among Certain Parties (Settlement Agreement), which were implemented as ordered by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia (Court) in a Remedial Order issued on May 23, 2002 (Order). These measures include: a freeze on days-at- sea (DAS) at the highest annual level used from fishing years 1996-2000 and a 20-percent cut from that level; a freeze on the issuance of new open access Hand-gear permits; gear restrictions; modifications and additions to closure areas; and restrictions on yellowtail flounder catch. In addition, this rule would implement a NE Multispecies DAS Leasing Program (Program), which is being proposed to mitigate impacts of these measures and to provide flexibility to some segments of the fishing industry. NMFS and two of the plaintiffs filed a motion with the Court requesting an extension of the August 22, 2003, implementation schedule until May 1, 2004. The Court granted an extension of the Court-ordered timeline for Amendment implementation until May 1, 2004. This emergency action is necessary to ensure that the regulations governing the NE multispecies fishery continue to be in compliance with the Court's Order.
Comments must be received no later than 5 p.m., local time, on May 27, 2003.
