• Description:
  The passage of the Atlantic Coastal Fisheries Cooperative Management Act (ACFCMA) in 1993 placed additional responsibilities on Atlantic coast states to cooperatively manage interjurisdictional species through the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC). Currently there are eleven ASMFC species management plans that the state of New Hampshire is required to be in compliance with under the ACFCMA. They include fisheries management plans for: American lobster, American eel, Atlantic menhaden, Atlantic sturgeon, bluefish, northern shrimp, shad and river herring, winter flounder, striped bass, horseshoe crabs and Atlantic sea herring.
