NMFS
manages the groundfish fishery in the BSAI according to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area FMP prepared by the North Pacific Fishery Management Council under authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
Regulations governing fishing by U.S.
vessels in accordance with the FMP
appear at subpart H of 50 CFR part 600
and 50 CFR part 679.
The 2021 blackspotted and rougheye rockfish TAC in the CAI/WAI of the BSAI is 169 metric tons mt as established by the final 2021 and 2022
harvest specifications for groundfish in the BSAI 86 FR 11449, February 25, 2021. In accordance with 679.20d2, the Administrator, Alaska Region, NMFS Regional Administrator, has determined that the 2021 blackspotted and rougheye rockfish TAC in the CAI/WAI of the BSAI has been reached. Therefore, NMFS is requiring that blackspotted and rougheye rockfish in the CAI/WAI of the BSAI be treated in the same manner as a prohibited species, as described under 679.21a, for the remainder of the year, except blackspotted and rougheye rockfish species in the CAI/WAI caught by catcher vessels using hook-and-line, pot, or jig gear as described in 679.20j.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Classification NMFS issues this action pursuant to section 305d of the Magnuson-Stevens Act. This action is required by 50 CFR
part 679, which was issued pursuant to section 304b, and is exempt from review under Executive Order 12866.
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553bB, there is good cause to waive prior notice and an opportunity for public comment on this action, as notice and comment would be impracticable and contrary to the public interest, as it would prevent NMFS from responding to the most recent fisheries data in a timely fashion and would delay the prohibited retention of blackspotted and rougheye rockfish in the CAI/WAI of the BSAI.
NMFS was unable to publish a notice providing time for public comment because the most recent, relevant data only became available as of July 30, 2021.
The Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA also finds good cause to waive the 30-day delay in the effective date of this action under 5
U.S.C. 553d3. This finding is based upon the reasons provided above for waiver of prior notice and opportunity for public comment.
