Description:"This emergency action closes the Nantucket Lightship Access Area (NLS) prior to its scheduled opening on June 15, 2011. This closure prevents potentially high levels of scallop and yellowtail flounder (yellowtail) catch that could result from opening the area prior to the approval and implementation of Framework Adjustment 22 to the Scallop Fishery Management Plan (FMP) (Framework 22), which could be detrimental to the longer term operations of the sca llop fishery"--Cover letter; Portfolio comprised of two related PDF documents digitized and organized by: NOAA Office of Program Planning and Integration (PPI) National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) staff.
