Description:

Amendment 34 would authorize the allocation of up to two percent of the annual specification of total allowable catch of Atka mackerel in Eastern Aleutian Islands District/Bering Sea subarea to vessels using jig gear. The purpose of the amendment is to provide an opportunity for a local small-vessel jig gear fleet to fish for Atka mackerel to supply a bait fishery and a fresh fish market for this species without direct competition from the trawl fleet.
