Abstract
NMFS proposes to implement management measures described in a framework action under the Fishery Management Plan for the Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf (FMP), as prepared by the Gulf Council (Council). If implemented, this proposed rule would modify the Gulf of America (Gulf) Other Shallow-Water Grouper (SWG) complex catch limits, and would set a recreational fixed-closed season for Gulf Other SWG. The purpose of this proposed rule is to reduce harvest of Gulf scamp and yellowmouth grouper while the Council develops Amendment 58A to the FMP, which considers additional Other SWG management measures.
