Description:"In October 2006, NMFS finalized the Consolidated Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Fishery Management Plan and issued implementing regulations for Atlantic swordfish to meet the requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). This action is necessary to implement recommendations of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (Commission) pursuant to the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act and to achieve domestic management objectives under the Magnuson-Stevens Act. This action implements the baseline quotas for North and South Atlantic swordfish and adjusts the North Atlantic swordfish quota per the underharvest carryover provisions and international quota transfer requirements of Recommendation 11-02. This action would also implement the new minimum size measurement for Atlantic swordfish per Recommendation 11-02. These measures are consistent with the 2006 Consolidated Highly Migratory Species Fishery Management Plan"--Abstract from EA; Portfolio comprised of three related PDF documents digitized and organized by: NOAA Office of Program Planning and Integration (PPI) National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) staff.
