NMFS announces that the Regional Administrator, Northeast Region, NMFS (Regional Administrator), is considering approval of the Gulf of Maine Separator Trawl Whiting Fishery (Separator Trawl Fishery) and proposed supplemental gear testing experiment to enable vessels to conduct operations otherwise restricted by regulations governing the Northeastern Multispecies Fishery. The experimental fisheries would allow commercial vessels to fish for, retain, and land silver hake (whiting) with mesh smaller than currently allowed in a portion of the Gulf of Maine/Georges Bank Regulated Mesh Area. These experiments would continue investigations designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of a bycatch reduction device (separator grate) assembled on small-mesh silver hake (whiting) trawls. It is anticipated that participation level would be dictated by two interrelated factors: Market value of whiting at the dock and the availability of the whiting at sea. Approximately 60 vessels were authorized to participate in last year's experiment from July 1 - November 30, 1998, although enrollment periods fluctuated due to the factors identified here. Regulations implementing the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act require publication of this notification to provide interested parties the opportunity to comment on the proposed experimental fisheries.
