Agenda

Wednesday, October 21, 2015

    The agenda is to identify a range of potential management measures 
for the Area 2C and Area 3A charter halibut fisheries in 2016, using 
the management measures in place for 2015 as a baseline. For Area 2C, 
the baseline management measure is a daily limit of one fish less than 
or equal to 42 inches or greater than or equal to 80 inches in length. 
For Area 3A, the baseline management measure is a daily limit of two 
fish, one fish of any size, and a second fish which must be 29 inches 
or less in length. Committee recommendations will be incorporated into 
an analysis for Council review in December 2015. The Council will 
recommend preferred management measures for consideration by the 
International Pacific Halibut Commission at its January 2016 meeting, 
for implementation in 2016.
    The Agenda is subject to change, and the latest version will be 
posted at http://www.npfmc.org/.
