Specific fishery management measures vary by fishery and by area, and establish fishing areas, seasons, quotas, legal gear, recreational fishing days and catch limits, possession and landing restrictions, and minimum lengths for salmon taken in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) (3-200 nautical miles (nmi)) off Washington, Oregon, and California. The management measures are intended to prevent overfishing and to apportion the ocean harvest equitably among treaty Indian, non- treaty commercial, and recreational fisheries. The measures are also intended to allow a portion of the salmon runs to escape the ocean fisheries in order to provide for spawning escapement and to provide fishing opportunity for inside fisheries (fisheries occurring in state internal waters). 84 FR 19729 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2019-05-06/2019-09064 2019-09064 fr06my19-8 RIN 0648-BI05 3510-22-P Docket No. 180702602-9400-01 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2019-05-06/2019-09064 https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-05-06/html/2019-09064.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-05-06/pdf/2019-09064.pdf 14 p. 19729 19742 84 FR 19729 Title 50 Part 660 50 CFR Part 660 RIN 0648-BI05 Fisheries Off West Coast States; West Coast Salmon Fisheries; 2019 Management Measures; Federal Register Vol. 84, Issue RULE 2019-09064 DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 2019-05-06 Docket No. 180702602-9400-01 3510-22-P 2019-09064 Final rule.

Through this final rule, NMFS establishes fishery management measures for the 2019 ocean salmon fisheries off Washington, Oregon, and California and the 2020 salmon seasons opening earlier than May 1, 2020. Specific fishery management measures vary by fishery and by area, and establish fishing areas, seasons, quotas, legal gear, recreational fishing days and catch limits, possession and landing restrictions, and minimum lengths for salmon taken in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) (3-200 nautical miles (nmi)) off Washington, Oregon, and California. The management measures are intended to prevent overfishing and to apportion the ocean harvest equitably among treaty Indian, non- treaty commercial, and recreational fisheries. The measures are also intended to allow a portion of the salmon runs to escape the ocean fisheries in order to provide for spawning escapement and to provide fishing opportunity for inside fisheries (fisheries occurring in state internal waters).

This final rule is effective from 0001 hours Pacific Daylight Time, May 6, 2019, until the effective date of the 2020 management measures, which NOAA will publish in the Federal Register.
