Magnuson-Stevens Act Provisions;
General Provisions for Domestic Fisheries; Application for Exempted Fishing Permits National Marine Fisheries Service NMFS, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NOAA, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice; request for comments.
AGENCY:

The Assistant Regional Administrator for Sustainable Fisheries, Greater Atlantic Region, NMFS, has made a preliminary determination that an Exempted Fishing Permit application from the Coonamessett Farm Foundation contains all of the required information and warrants further consideration. This Exempted Fishing Permit would allow a participating party/charter fishing vessel to temporarily possess undersized black sea bass for tagging and biological sampling purposes. Regulations under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act require publication of this notification to provide interested parties the opportunity to comment on applications for proposed Exempted Fishing Permits.
DATES: Comments must be received on or before March 17, 2021.
ADDRESSES: You may submit written comments by the following method:
Email: NMFS.GAR.EFP@noaa.gov.
Include in the subject line Comments on CFF Black Sea Bass Tagging EFP. If you cannot submit a comment through this method, please contact Laura Hansen at 9782819225, or email at Laura.Hansen@noaa.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Laura Hansen, Fishery Management Specialist, 9782819225, Laura.Hansen@noaa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coonamessett Farm Foundation CFF
submitted a complete application for an Exempted Fishing Permit EFP on October 26, 2020, to conduct fishing activities that the regulations would otherwise restrict. The EFP would authorize a participating vessel to temporarily possess undersize black sea bass while conducting tagging procedures and biological sampling.
This research is designed to tag and release black sea bass to study movement patterns, habitat usage, and migratory cycles for up to the 2-year battery life of the telemetry tags.
