Description:
This document provides analysis and discussion on two separate action items. The first action item redefines single geographic location allowing AFA stationary floating processors the flexibility to relocate between reporting weeks, rather than between fishing years, for the purpose of processing targeted Bering Sea Pollock. The second action item addresses obsolete and inconsistent inshore/offshore language in the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area and of the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska and would remove the Gulf of Alaska inshore/offshore allocation sunset date. The EA/RIR provides an analysis of the expected impacts the actions on the physical, economic, and socioeconomic environments.
