Description:

This document is a Regulatory Impact Review/Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis (RIF/IRFA) whose purpose is to analyze American Fisheries Act (AFA) vessel replacement provisions as amended by the Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2010 (Coast Guard Act) and to evaluate whether the Council should recommend measures, beyond what is in the AFA amendments, to prevent increased fishing effort by replacement or rebuilt AFA vessels in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) groundfish fisheries. Specifically, the Coast Guard Act addresses the rebuilding, replacement, and removal of vessels eligible to participate in the Bering Sea pollock fishery under the AFA. See Appendix A for Section 602 of the Coast Guard Act and Appendix B for NMFS’s preliminary review of the Coast Guard Act provided to the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) in March 2011. The Coast Guard Act expressly authorizes the Council to recommend for approval by the Secretary of Commerce conservation and management measures, including size limits and measures to control fishing capacity, to ensure that the Coast Guard Act does not diminish the effectiveness of the groundfish fishery management plans of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) and of the GOA.
