Description:

Initially, the CMP FMP (GMFMC and SAFMC 1982) treated king mackerel as one stock. The present management regime in the FMP recognizes two migratory groups: the Gulf migratory group and the Atlantic migratory group. Each migratory group is primarily managed by the respective Council, with the exception of the Florida East Coast Subzone. Gulf and Atlantic migratory groups of king mackerel are also divided into zones and/or subzones for management purposes. This amendment considers changes to management measures for Gulf and Atlantic migratory groups of king mackerel. For the purposes of this amendment, the Gulf migratory group will be referred to as Gulf king mackerel and the Atlantic migratory group will be referred to as Atlantic king mackerel.
