Description:

Amendment 14 considers alternatives that would improve monitoring of the fisheries managed under the Atlantic mackerel, Squid, and Butterfish (MSB) Fishery Management Plan (FMP) and alternatives to reduce catch of river herring (alewife and blueback herring) and shad (American shad and hickory shad) in these fisheries. This document provides decision-makers and the public with an evaluation of the environmental, social, and economic effects of changes to the MSB FMP pursuant to meet these goals, and addresses the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act and Executive Order 12866.
