Description:

This document contains a Regulatory Impact Review and an Environmental Assessment evaluating the economic and environmental impacts of an action to enhance monitoring and enforcement measures used to verify the harvest of Pacific cod by freezer longliners that operate in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) groundfish management area, and to improve the precision of harvest estimates. The measures cover this fleet when it is operating in the Gulf of Alaska as well as in the BSAI. The analyses in this document address the requirements of Executive Order 12866 and the National Environmental Policy Act.
