• Description:
  In recognition of the complexity of Amendment 58A to the Reef Fish FMP (Amendment 58A), the Council is developing this framework action to consider changes to catch limits for the Other SWG complex that are consistent with the recommendations from the SSC based on its review of SEDAR 68. The modifications from this framework action are expected to reduce the likelihood of overfishing scamp and yellowmouth grouper while a more holistic management response is developed in Amendment 58A.
