(b) Directed commercial fishing for Shared EC Species. For the purposes of this section, ‘‘directed commercial fishing’’ means that a fishing vessel lands Shared EC Species without land ing any species other than Shared EC Species, or lands Shared EC Species with other species and in amounts more than: (1) 10 mt combined weight of all Shared EC Species from any fishing trip; or (2) 30 mt combined weight of all Shared EC Species in any calendar year. § 660.6 Prohibitions. In addition to the general prohibi tions specified in § 600.725 of this chap ter, and the other prohibitions speci fied in this part, it is unlawful for any person to: (a) Directed commercial fishing. Engage in directed commercial fishing for Shared EC Species from a vessel en gaged in commercial fishing within the EEZ off Washington, Oregon, or Cali fornia. This prohibition does not apply to: (1) Fishing authorized by the Hoh, Makah, or Quileute Indian Tribes, or by the Quinault Indian Nation, or (2) Fishing trips conducted entirely within state marine waters.

These definitions are specific to the fisheries covered in subparts C through G of this part. Acceptable Biological Catch (ABC) means a harvest specification that is set below the overfishing limit to ac count for scientific uncertainty in the estimate of OFL, and other scientific uncertainty. Active sampling unit means the por tion of the groundfish fleet in which an observer coverage plan is being applied. Address of Record means the business address a person has provided to NMFS for NMFS use in providing notice of agency actions and other business with that person. Allocation. (See § 600.10 of this chap ter) Annual Catch Limit (ACL) is a harvest specification set equal to or below the ABC threshold in consideration of con servation objectives, socioeconomic concerns, management uncertainty and other factors. The ACL is a harvest limit that includes all sources of fish ing-related mortality including land ings, discard mortality, research catches, and catches in exempted fish ing permit activities. Sector-specific annual catch limits can be specified, especially in cases where a sector has a formal, long-term allocation of the harvestable surplus of a stock or stock complex. Annual Catch Target (ACT) is a man agement target set below the annual catch limit and may be used as an ac countability measure in cases where there is great uncertainty in inseason catch monitoring to ensure against ex ceeding an annual catch limit. Since the annual catch target is a target and not a limit it can be used in lieu of har vest guidelines or strategically to ac complish other management objec tives. Sector-specific annual catch tar gets can also be specified to accomplish management objectives. Base permit means a sablefish-en dorsed limited entry permit described at § 660.25(b)(3)(i), subpart C, registered for use with a vessel that meets the permit length endorsement require ments appropriate to that vessel, as de scribed at § 660.25(b)(3)(iii), subpart C.

Trip limits are used in the commercial fishery to specify the max imum amount of a fish species or spe cies group that may legally be taken and retained, possessed, or landed, per vessel, per fishing trip, or cumulatively per unit of time, or the number of land ings that may be made from a vessel in a given period of time, as follows: (1) A per trip limit is the total allow able amount of a groundfish species or species group, by weight, or by percent age of weight of legal fish on board, that may be taken and retained, pos sessed, or landed per vessel from a sin gle fishing trip. (2) A daily trip limit is the maximum amount of a groundfish species or spe cies group that may be taken and re tained, possessed, or landed per vessel in 24 consecutive hours, starting at 0001 hours local time. Only one landing of groundfish may be made in that 24 hour period. Daily trip limits may not be accumulated during multiple day trips.

(a) What is a VMS? A VMS consists of a NMFS OLE type-approved mobile transceiver unit that automatically de termines the vessel’s position and transmits it to a NMFS OLE type-ap proved communications service pro vider. The communications service pro vider receives the transmission and re lays it to NMFS OLE. (b) Who is Required to Have a VMS? The following vessels are required to install a NMFS OLE type-approved mo bile transceiver unit and to arrange for a NMFS OLE type-approved commu nications service provider to receive and relay transmissions to NMFS OLE prior to fishing: (1) Any vessel registered for use with a limited entry ‘‘A’’ endorsed permit (i.e., not an MS permit) that fishes in state or Federal waters seaward of the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured off the States of Wash ington, Oregon or California (0–200 nm offshore). (2) Any vessel that uses non-ground fish trawl gear to fish in the EEZ.

(c) How are Mobile Transceiver Units and Communications Service Providers Approved by NMFS OLE? (1) NMFS OLE will publish type-ap proval specifications for VMS compo nents in the FEDERAL REGISTER or no tify the public through other appro priate media. (2) Mobile transceiver unit manufac turers or communication service pro viders will submit products or services to NMFS OLE for evaluation based on the published specifications. (3) NMFS OLE may publish a list of NMFS OLE type-approved mobile transceiver units and communication service providers for the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery in the FEDERAL REG ISTER or notify the public through other appropriate media. As necessary, NMFS OLE may publish amendments to the list of type-approved mobile transceiver units and communication service providers in the FEDERAL REG ISTER or through other appropriate media. A list of VMS transceivers that have been type-approved by NMFS OLE may be mailed to the permit owner’s address of record. NMFS will bear no responsibility if a notification is sent to the address of record and is not re ceived because the applicant’s actual address has changed without notifica tion to NMFS, as required at § 660.25(b)(4)(i)(B). (d) What are the Vessel Owner’s Re sponsibilities? If you are a vessel owner that must participate in the VMS pro gram, you or the vessel operator must: (1) Obtain a NMFS OLE type-ap proved mobile transceiver unit and have it installed on board your vessel in accordance with the instructions provided by NMFS OLE. You may ob tain a copy of the VMS installation and operation instructions from the NMFS OLE West Coast Region, VMS Program Manager upon request at 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA 98115– 6349, phone: 888–585–5518 or wcd.vms@noaa.gov. (2) Activate the mobile transceiver unit, submit an activation report at least 72 hours prior to leaving port on a trip in which VMS is required, and receive confirmation from NMFS OLE that the VMS transmissions are being received before participating in a fish ery requiring the VMS. Instructions for submitting an activation report may be obtained from the NMFS OLE West Coast Region, VMS Program Manager upon request at 7600 Sand Point Way NE, Seattle, WA 98115–6349, phone: 888– 585–5518 or wcd.vms@noaa.gov. An acti vation report must again be submitted to NMFS OLE following reinstallation of a mobile transceiver unit or change in service provider before the vessel may be used to fish in a fishery requir ing the VMS. (i) Activation reports. If you are a ves sel owner who must use VMS and you are activating a VMS transceiver unit for the first time or reactivating a VMS transceiver unit following a re installation of a mobile transceiver unit or change in service provider, you must fax NMFS OLE an activation re port that includes: Vessel name; vessel owner’s name, address and telephone number, vessel operator’s name, ad dress and telephone number, USCG ves sel documentation number/state reg istration number; if applicable, the groundfish permit number the vessel is registered to; VMS transceiver unit manufacturer; VMS communications service provider; VMS transceiver iden tification; identifying if the unit is the primary or backup; and a statement signed and dated by the vessel owner confirming compliance with the instal lation procedures provided by NMFS OLE. (ii) Transferring ownership of VMS unit. Ownership of the VMS transceiver unit may be transferred from one ves sel owner to another vessel owner if all of the following documents are pro vided to NMFS OLE: A new activation report, which identifies that the trans ceiver unit was previously registered to another vessel; a notarized bill of sale showing proof of ownership of the VMS transceiver unit; documentation from the communications service provider showing proof that the service agree ment for the previous vessel was termi nated and that a service agreement was established for the new vessel.

(i) Position frequency. The mobile transceiver unit must transmit a sig nal accurately indicating the vessel’s position at least once every 15 minutes, 24 hours a day, throughout the year un less an exemption in paragraph (d)(3)(ii) of this section applies or a valid exemption report, as described in paragraph (d)(4) of this section, has been received by NMFS OLE. The sig nal indicating the vessel’s position can consist of either: A single position re port transmitted every 15 minutes; or a series of position reports, at no more than a 15 minute interval, combined and transmitted at least once every hour. (ii) Exemptions to position frequency re quirement—(A) Electronic monitoring ex emption. If a vessel has an electronic monitoring system installed and in use for the duration of a given fishing year, the mobile transceiver unit must transmit a signal at least once every hour. (B) Midwater trawl exemption. If a lim ited entry trawl vessel is fishing with midwater trawl gear under declara tions in § 660.13(d)(4)(iv)(A), the mobile transceiver unit must transmit a sig nal at least once every hour. (C) In port exemption. If a vessel re mains in port for an extended period of time, the mobile transceiver unit must transmit a signal at least once every four hours. The mobile transceiver unit must remain in continuous operation at all times unless the vessel is exempt under paragraph (d)(4) of this section. (D) Pink shrimp trawl exemption. If a vessel is fishing for pink shrimp using non-groundfish trawl gear under dec larations in § 660.13(d)(4)(iv)(A), the mo bile transceiver unit must transmit a signal at least once every hour. (4) VMS exemptions. A vessel that is required to operate and maintain the mobile transceiver unit continuously 24 hours a day throughout the fishing year may be exempted from this re quirement if a valid exemption report, as described at paragraph (d)(4)(vii) of this section, is received by NMFS OLE and the vessel is in compliance with all conditions and requirements of the VMS exemption identified in this sec tion and specified in the exemption re port. (i) Haul out exemption. When it is an ticipated that a vessel will be continu ously out of the water for more than 7 consecutive days and a valid exemption report has been received by NMFS OLE, electrical power to the VMS mo bile transceiver unit may be removed and transmissions may be discon tinued. Under this exemption, VMS transmissions can be discontinued from the time the vessel is removed from the water until the time that the vessel is placed back in the water. (ii) Outside areas exemption. When the vessel will be operating seaward of the EEZ off Washington, Oregon, or Cali fornia continuously for more than 7 consecutive days and a valid exemption report has been received by NMFS OLE, the VMS mobile transceiver unit transmissions may be reduced or dis continued from the time the vessel leaves the EEZ off the coasts of Wash ington, Oregon or California until the time that the vessel re-enters the EEZ off the coasts of Washington, Oregon or California. Under this exemption, the vessel owner or operator can request that NMFS OLE reduce or discontinue the VMS transmissions after receipt of an exemption report, if the vessel is equipped with a VMS transceiver unit that NMFS OLE has approved for this exemption. (iii) Permit exemption. If the limited entry permit had a change in vessel registration so that it is no longer reg istered to the vessel (for the purposes of this section, this includes permits placed into ‘‘unidentified’’ status), the vessel may be exempted from VMS re quirements providing the vessel is not used to fish in state or Federal waters seaward of the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured off the States of Washington, Oregon or Cali fornia (0–200 nm offshore) for the re mainder of the fishing year. If the ves sel is used to fish in this area for any species of fish at any time during the remaining portion of the fishing year without being registered to a limited entry permit, the vessel is required to have and use VMS.

(v) Emergency exemption. Vessels re quired to have VMS under paragraph (b) of this section may be exempted from VMS provisions in emergency sit uations that are beyond the vessel owner’s control, including but not lim ited to: Fire, flooding, or extensive physical damage to critical areas of the vessel. A vessel owner may apply for an emergency exemption from the VMS requirements specified in para graph (b) of this section for his/her ves sel by sending a written request to NMFS OLE specifying the following in formation: The reasons for seeking an exemption, including any supporting documents (e.g., repair invoices, photo graphs showing damage to the vessel, insurance claim forms, etc.); the time period for which the exemption is re quested; and the location of the vessel while the exemption is in effect. NMFS OLE will issue a written determination granting or denying the emergency ex emption request. A vessel will not be covered by the emergency exemption until NMFS OLE issues a determina tion granting the exemption. If an ex emption is granted, the duration of the exemption will be specified in the NMFS OLE determination. (vi) Submission of exemption reports. Signed long-term departure exemption reports must be submitted by fax or by emailing an electronic copy of the ac tual report. In the event of an emer gency in which an emergency exemp tion request will be submitted, initial contact with NMFS OLE must be made by telephone, fax or email within 24 hours from when the incident occurred. Emergency exemption requests must be requested in writing within 72 hours from when the incident occurred. Other exemption reports must be submitted through the VMS or another method that is approved by NMFS OLE and an nounced in the FEDERAL REGISTER. Submission methods for exemption re quests, except long-term departures and emergency exemption requests, may include email, facsimile, or tele phone. NMFS OLE will provide, through appropriate media, instruc tions to the public on submitting ex emption reports. Instructions and other information needed to make ex emption reports may be mailed to the vessel owner’s address of record. NMFS will bear no responsibility if a notifica tion is sent to the address of record for the vessel owner and is not received be cause the vessel owner’s actual address has changed without notification to NMFS. Owners of vessels required to use VMS who do not receive instruc tions by mail are responsible for con tacting NMFS OLE during business hours at least 3 days before the exemp tion is required to obtain information needed to make exemption reports. NMFS OLE must be contacted during business hours (Monday through Fri day between 0800 and 1700 Pacific Time). (vii) Valid exemption reports. For an exemption report to be valid, it must be received by NMFS at least 2 hours and not more than 24 hours before the exempted activities defined at para graphs (d)(4)(i) through (iv) of this sec tion occur. An exemption report is valid until NMFS receives a report canceling the exemption. An exemp tion cancellation must be received at least 2 hours before the vessel re-enters the EEZ following an outside areas ex emption; at least 2 hours before the vessel is placed back in the water fol lowing a haul out exemption; at least 2 hours before the vessel resumes fishing for any species of fish in state or Fed eral waters off the States of Wash ington, Oregon, or California after it has received a permit exemption; or at least 2 hours before a vessel resumes fishing in the open access fishery after a long-term departure exemption.

(a) Applicability. This section con tains the equipment and operational requirements for scales used to weigh catch at sea, scales used to weigh catch at IFQ first receivers, hardware and software for electronic fish tickets, and computer hardware for electronic log book software. Unless otherwise speci fied by regulation, the operator or manager must retain, for 3 years, a copy of all records described in this section and make the records available upon request to NMFS staff or an au thorized officer. (b) Scales used to weigh fish at sea. Vessel owners, operators, and man agers are jointly and severally respon sible for their vessel’s compliance with the requirements specified in this sec tion. (1) Performance and technical require ments for scales in the MS and C/P Coop Programs. A scale used to weigh fish in the MS and C/P Coop Programs must meet the type evaluation, initial in spection, and annual reinspection re quirements set forth in 50 CFR 679.28(b)(1) and (2), and must be ap proved by NMFS to weigh fish at sea. (2) Annual inspection. Once a scale is installed on a vessel and approved by NMFS for use to weigh fish at sea, it must be reinspected annually within 12 months of the date of the most recent inspection to determine if the scale meets all of the applicable performance and technical requirements as de scribed in 50 CFR 679.28(b). (3) Daily testing. Each scale used to weigh fish must be tested at least once each calendar day to ensure that each scale meets the maximum permissible error requirements described at para graph (b)(4) of this section. (4) Daily at-sea scale tests. To verify that the scale meets the maximum per missible errors specified in this para graph, each scale used to weigh fish must be tested at least one time during each calendar day when use of the scale is required. The tests must be per formed in an accurate and timely man ner. (i) Flow or Belt scales—(A) Maximum permissible errors. The maximum per missible errors for the daily at-sea scale test is plus or minus 3 percent of the known weight of the test material.

VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.15 (B) Test Procedure. A test must be conducted by weighing no less than 400 kg (882 lb) of test material, supplied by the scale manufacturer or approved by a NMFS-authorized scale inspector, on the scale under test. The test material may be run across the scale multiple times in order to total 400 kg; however, no single run of test material across the scale may weigh less than 40 kg (88.2 lb). The known weight of test ma terial must be determined at the time of each scale test by weighing it on a platform scale approved for use under 50 CFR 679.28(b)(7). (ii) Platform scales required for observer sampling or to determine known weight of test material on mothership and catcher/ processor vessels—(A) Maximum permis sible errors. The maximum permissible errors for the daily at-sea scale test for platform scales is plus or minus 0.5 per cent of the weight tested. (B) Test Procedure. A platform scale used for observer sampling must be tested at 10, 25, and 50 kg (or 20, 50, and 100 lb if the scale is denominated in pounds) using approved test weights. Any combination of test weights that will allow the scale to be tested at 10 kg, 25 kg, and 50 kg may be used. A platform scale used to weigh fish must be tested at a weight equal to the larg est amount of fish that will be weighed on the scale in one weighing. (C) Approved test weights. Each test weight must have its weight stamped on or otherwise permanently affixed to it. The weight of each test weight must be annually certified by a National In stitute of Standards and Technology approved metrology laboratory or ap proved for continued use by the NMFS authorized inspector at the time of the annual scale inspection. (iii) Requirements for all at-sea scale tests. The following conditions must be met: (A) Notify the observer at least 15 minutes before the time that the test will be conducted, and conduct the test while the observer is present. (B) Conduct the scale test by placing the test material or test weights on or across the scale and recording the fol lowing information on the at-sea scale test report form: (1) Vessel name; (2) Month, day, and year of test; (3) Time test started to the nearest minute in local time; (4) Known weight of test materials or test weights; (5) Weight of test material or test weights recorded by scale; (6) Percent error as determined by subtracting the known weight of the test material or test weights from the weight recorded on the scale, dividing that amount by the known weight of the test material or test weights, and multiplying by 100; and (7) Signature of operator. (C) Maintain the scale test report form from all at-sea scale tests, includ ing test report forms from failed scale tests on board the vessel until the end of the fishing year during which the tests were conducted, and make the re port forms available to observers, NMFS staff, or authorized officers. In addition, the scale test report forms must be retained for 3 years after the end of the fishing year during which the tests were performed. Each scale test report form must be signed by the operator immediately following com pletion of each scale test. (5) Scale maintenance. The scale must be maintained in proper operating con dition throughout its use; adjustments made to the scale must be made to bring the performance errors as close as practicable to a zero value; and no adjustment may be made that will cause the scale to weigh fish inac curately. (6) Printed reports from the scale (not applicable to observer sampling scales). Printed reports are provided to NMFS as required by this paragraph. Printed reports from the scale must be main tained on board the vessel until the end of the year during which the reports were made, and made available to ob servers, NMFS staff or authorized offi cers. In addition, printed reports must be retained for 3 years after the end of the year during which the printouts were made. (i) Printed reports of catch weight and cumulative weight.

An IFQ first re ceiver must maintain printouts on site until the end of the fishing year during which the printouts were made and make them available upon request by the catch monitor, NMFS staff, NMFS authorized personnel, or authorized of ficers for 3 years after the end of the fishing year during which the printout was made. (ii) All scales identified in a catch monitoring plan (see § 660.140(f)(3)) must produce a printed record for each landing, or portion of a landing, weighed on that scale. NMFS may ex empt, through approval of the NMFS accepted catch monitoring plan, scales not designed for automatic bulk weigh ing from part or all of the printed record requirements. IFQ first receiv ers that receive no more than 200,000 pounds of groundfish in any calendar month may be exempt under § 660.140(j)(2). For scales that must produce a printed record, the printed record must include: (A) The IFQ first receiver’s name; (B) The weight of each load in the weighing cycle; (C) The total weight of fish in each landing, or portion of the landing that was weighed on that scale; (D) For belt scales and weight belts, the total cumulative weight of all fish or other material weighed on the scale since the last inspection; (E) The date the information is print ed; and (F) The name and vessel registration or documentation number of the vessel making the landing. The person oper ating the scale may write this informa tion on the scale printout in ink at the time of printing. (4) Inseason scale testing. IFQ first re ceivers must allow, and provide reason able assistance to NMFS staff, NMFS authorized personnel, and authorized officers to test scales used to weigh IFQ fish. A scale that does not pass an inseason test may not be used to weigh IFQ fish until the scale passes an inseason test or is approved for contin ued use by the weights and measures authorities of the State in which the scale is located. (i) Inseason testing criteria. To pass an inseason test, NMFS staff or author ized officers must be able to verify that: (A) The scale display and printed in formation are clear and easily read under all conditions of normal oper ation; (B) Weight values are visible on the display until the value is printed; (C) The scale does not exceed the maximum permissible errors specified in this paragraph: (1) Flow scales (also known as belt scales and weight belts). The maximum permissible error is plus or minus 0.25 percent of the known weight of the test material with repeatability between tests of no more than 0.25 percent. Per cent error is determined by subtracting the known weight of the test material or test weights from the weight re corded on the scale, dividing that amount by the known weight of the test material or test weights, and mul tiplying by 100.

All commercial fishing for groundfish must be conducted in ac cordance with the regulations gov erning limited entry and open access fisheries, except such fishing by treaty Indian tribes as may be separately pro vided for. (b) [Reserved] § 660.25 Permits. (a) General. Each of the permits or li censes in this section has different con ditions or privileges as part of the per mit or license. The permits or licenses in this section confer a conditional privilege of participating in the Pacific coast groundfish fishery, in accordance with Federal regulations in 50 CFR part 660, subparts C through G. (b) Limited entry permit—(1) Eligibility and registration—(i) General. In order for a vessel to be used to fish in the limited entry fishery, the vessel owner must hold a limited entry permit and, through SFD, must register that vessel for use with a limited entry permit. When participating in the limited entry fishery, a vessel is authorized to fish with the gear type endorsed on the limited entry permit registered for use with that vessel, except that the MS permit does not have a gear endorse ment. There are three types of gear en dorsements: Trawl, longline, and pot (or trap). All limited entry permits, ex cept the MS permit, have size endorse ments; a vessel registered for use with a limited entry permit must comply with the vessel size requirements of VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00058 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 49 Fishery Conservation and Management § 660.25 this subpart. A sablefish endorsement is also required for a vessel to be used to fish in the primary season for the limited entry fixed gear sablefish fish ery, north of 36° N. lat. Certain limited entry permits will also have endorse ments required for participation in a specific fishery, such as the MS/CV en dorsement and the C/P endorsement. (ii) Eligibility. Only a person eligible to own a documented vessel under the terms of 46 U.S.C. 12113 (a) may be issued or may hold a limited entry per mit. (iii) Registration. Limited entry per mits will normally be registered for use with a particular vessel at the time the permit is issued, renewed, or re placed. If the permit will be used with a vessel other than the one registered on the permit, the permit owner must register that permit for use with the new vessel through the SFD. The re issued permit must be placed on board the new vessel in order for the vessel to be used to fish in the limited entry fishery. (A) For all limited entry permits, in cluding MS permits, MS/CV-endorsed permits, and C/P-endorsed permits when they are not fishing in the at-sea whiting fisheries, registration of a lim ited entry permit to be used with a new vessel will take effect no earlier than the first day of the next major limited entry cumulative limit period fol lowing the date SFD receives the change in vessel registration form and the original permit. (B) For MS permits, MS/CV-endorsed permits, and C/P-endorsed permits when they are fishing in the at-sea whiting fisheries, registration of a lim ited entry permit to be used with a new vessel will take effect on the date NMFS approves and issues the permit. (iv) Limited entry permits indivisible. Limited entry permits may not be di vided for use by more than one vessel. (v) Initial administrative determination (IAD). SFD will make a determination regarding permit endorsements, re newal, replacement, change in permit ownership and change in vessel reg istration. SFD will notify the permit owner in writing with an explanation of any determination to deny a permit endorsement, renewal, replacement, change in permit ownership or change in vessel registration. The SFD will de cline to act on an application for per mit endorsement, renewal, replace ment, or change in registration of a limited entry permit if the permit is subject to sanction provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens Act at 16 U.S.C. 1858(a) and implementing regulations at 15 CFR part 904, subpart D, apply. (2) Mothership (MS) permit. The MS permit conveys a conditional privilege for the vessel registered to it, to par ticipate in the MS fishery by receiving and processing deliveries of groundfish in the Pacific whiting mothership sec tor. An MS permit is a type of limited entry permit. An MS permit does not have any endorsements affixed to the permit. The provisions for the MS per mit, including eligibility, renewal, change of permit ownership, vessel reg istration, fees, and appeals are de scribed at § 660.150 (f). (3) Endorsements—(i) ‘‘A’’ endorsement. A limited entry permit with an ‘‘A’’ en dorsement entitles the vessel reg istered to the permit to fish in the lim ited entry fishery for all groundfish species with the type(s) of limited entry gear specified in the endorse ment, except for sablefish harvested north of 36° N. lat. during times and with gears for which a sablefish en dorsement is required. See paragraph (b)(3)(iv) of this section for provisions on sablefish endorsement require ments. An ‘‘A’’ endorsement is affixed to the limited entry permit. The lim ited entry permit with an ‘‘A’’ endorse ment may be registered to another per son (i.e., change in permit ownership), or to a different vessel (i.e., change in vessel registration) under paragraph (b)(4) of this section. An ‘‘A’’ endorse ment expires on failure to renew the limited entry permit to which it is af fixed. An MS permit is not considered a limited entry ‘‘A’’-endorsed permit. (ii) Gear endorsement. There are three types of gear endorsements: Trawl, longline, and pot (trap). When limited entry ‘‘A’’-endorsed permits were first issued, some vessel owners qualified for more than one type of gear endorse ment based on the landings history of their vessels. Each limited entry ‘‘A’’ endorsed permit has one or more gear endorsement(s). Gear endorsement(s) assigned to the permit at the time of VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00059 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 50 50 CFR Ch. VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.25 issuance will be permanent and shall not be modified. While participating in the limited entry fishery, the vessel registered to the limited entry ‘‘A’’-en dorsed permit is authorized to fish the gear(s) endorsed on the permit. While participating in the limited entry, fixed gear primary fishery for sablefish described at § 660.231, a vessel reg istered to more than one limited entry permit is authorized to fish with any gear, except trawl gear, endorsed on at least one of the permits registered for use with that vessel. Vessels registered to limited entry permits may be used to fish with open access gear, subject to the crossover provisions at § 660.60(h)(7)(ii), except that vessels reg istered to sablefish-endorsed permits fishing in the sablefish primary season described at § 660.231, may not fish with open access gear against those limits. An MS permit does not have a gear en dorsement. (iii) Vessel size endorsements—(A) Gen eral. Each limited entry ‘‘A’’-endorsed permit will be endorsed with the LOA for the size of the vessel that initially qualified for the permit, except when permits are combined into one permit to be registered for use with a vessel requiring a larger size endorsement, the new permit will be endorsed for the size that results from the combination of the permits. (B) Limitations of size endorsements. (1) A limited entry permit may be reg istered for use with a vessel up to 5 ft (1.52 m) longer than, the same length as, or any length shorter than, the size endorsed on the existing permit with out requiring a combination of permits or a change in the size endorsement. (2) The vessel harvest capacity rating for each of the permits being combined is that indicated in Table 3 of subpart C for the LOA (in feet) endorsed on the respective limited entry permit. Har vest capacity ratings for fractions of a foot in vessel length will be determined by multiplying the fraction of a foot in vessel length by the difference in the two ratings assigned to the nearest in tegers of vessel length. The length rat ing for the combined permit is that in dicated for the sum of the vessel har vest capacity ratings for each permit being combined. If that sum falls be tween the sums for two adjacent lengths on Table 3 of subpart C, the length rating shall be the higher length. (C) Size endorsement requirements for sablefish-endorsed permits. Notwith standing paragraphs (b)(3)(iii)(A) and (B) of this section, when multiple per mits are ‘‘stacked’’ on a vessel, as de scribed in paragraph (b)(4)(iii), at least one of the permits must meet the size requirements of those sections. The permit that meets the size require ments of those sections is considered the vessel’s ‘‘base’’ permit, as defined in § 660.11, subpart C. If more than one permit registered for use with the ves sel has an appropriate length endorse ment for that vessel, NMFS SFD will designate a base permit by selecting the permit that has been registered to the vessel for the longest time. If the permit owner objects to NMFS’ selec tion of the base permit, the permit owner may send a letter to NMFS SFD requesting the change and the reasons for the request. If the permit requested to be changed to the base permit is ap propriate for the length of the vessel, NMFS SFD will reissue the permit with the new base permit. Any addi tional permits that are stacked for use with a vessel participating in the lim ited entry fixed gear primary sablefish fishery may be registered for use with a vessel even if the vessel is more than 5 ft (1.5 m) longer or shorter than the size endorsed on the permit. (iv) Sablefish endorsement and tier as signment—(A) General. Participation in the limited entry fixed gear sablefish fishery during the primary season north of 36° N. lat., described in § 660.231, Subpart E, requires that an owner of a vessel hold (by ownership or lease) a limited entry permit, reg istered for use with that vessel, with a longline or trap (or pot) endorsement and a sablefish endorsement. Up to three permits with sablefish endorse ments may be registered for use with a single vessel. Limited entry permits with sablefish endorsements are as signed to one of three different cumu lative trip limit tiers, based on the qualifying catch history of the permit. (1) A sablefish endorsement with a tier assignment will be affixed to the permit and will remain valid when the permit is registered to another permit VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 51 Fishery Conservation and Management § 660.25 owner (i.e., change in permit owner ship) or to another vessel (i.e., change in vessel registration). (2) A sablefish endorsement and its associated tier assignment are not sep arable from the limited entry permit, and therefore, may not be registered to another permit owner (i.e., change in permit ownership) or to another vessel (i.e., change in vessel registration) sep arately from the limited entry permit. (B) Ownership requirements and limita tions. (1) No partnership or corporation may own a limited entry permit with a sablefish endorsement unless that part nership or corporation owned a limited entry permit with a sablefish endorse ment on November 1, 2000. Otherwise, only individual human persons may own limited entry permits with sable fish endorsements. (2) No individual person, partnership, or corporation in combination may have ownership interest in or hold more than 3 permits with sablefish en dorsements either simultaneously or cumulatively over the primary season, except for an individual person, or partnerships or corporations that had ownership interest in more than 3 per mits with sablefish endorsements as of November 1, 2000. The exemption from the maximum ownership level of 3 per mits only applies to ownership of the particular permits that were owned on November 1, 2000. An individual person, or partnerships or corporations that had ownership interest in 3 or more permits with sablefish endorsements as of November 1, 2000, may not acquire additional permits beyond those par ticular permits owned on November 1, 2000. If, at some future time, an indi vidual person, partnership, or corpora tion that owned more than 3 permits as of November 1, 2000, sells or otherwise permanently transfers (not holding through a lease arrangement) some of its originally owned permits, such that they then own fewer than 3 permits, they may then acquire additional per mits, but may not have ownership in terest in or hold more than 3 permits. (3) A partnership or corporation will lose the exemptions provided in para graphs (b)(3)(iv)(B)(1) and (2) of this section on the effective date of any change in the corporation or partner ship from that which existed on No vember 1, 2000. A ‘‘change’’ in the part nership or corporation is defined at § 660.11. A change in the partnership or corporation must be reported to SFD within 15 calendar days of the addition of a new shareholder or partner. (4) Any partnership or corporation with any ownership interest in a lim ited entry permit with a sablefish en dorsement or in the vessel registered to the permit shall document the extent of that ownership interest with NMFS via the Identification of Ownership In terest Form sent to the permit owner through the annual permit renewal process and whenever a change in per mit owner, vessel owner, and/or vessel registration occurs as described at paragraph (b)(4)(v) and (vi) of this sec tion. NMFS will not renew a sablefish endorsed limited entry permit through the annual renewal process described at paragraph (b)(4)(i) of this section, or approve a change in permit owner, ves sel owner, and/or vessel registration unless the Identification of Ownership Interest Form has been completed. Further, if NMFS discovers through re view of the Identification of Ownership Interest Form that an individual per son, partnership, or corporation owns or holds more than 3 permits and is not authorized to do so under paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(B)(2) of this section, the indi vidual person, partnership or corpora tion will be notified and the permits owned or held by that individual per son, partnership, or corporation will be void and reissued with the vessel status as ‘‘unidentified’’ until the permit owner owns and/or holds a quantity of permits appropriate to the restrictions and requirements described in para graph (b)(3)(iv)(B)(2) of this section. If NMFS discovers through review of the Identification of Ownership Interest Form that a partnership or corporation has had a change in membership since November 1, 2000, as described in para graph (b)(3)(iv)(B)(3) of this section, the partnership or corporation will be noti fied, NMFS will void any existing per mits, and reissue any permits owned and/or held by that partnership or cor poration in ‘‘unidentified’’ status with respect to vessel registration until the partnership or corporation is able to register ownership of those permits to persons authorized under this section VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 52 50 CFR Ch. VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.25 to own sablefish-endorsed limited entry permits. (5) A person, partnership, or corpora tion that is exempt from the owner-on board requirement may sell all of their permits, buy another sablefish-en dorsed permit within one year of the date of approval of the last change in permit ownership, and retain their ex emption from the owner-on-board re quirements. An individual person, part nership or corporation could only ob tain a permit if it has not added or changed individuals since November 1, 2000, excluding individuals that have left the partnership or corporation or that have died. (C) Ownership limitation exemption. As described in (b)(3)(iv)(B) of this section, no individual person, partnership, or corporation in combination may own and/or hold more than three sablefish endorsed permits. A vessel owner that meets the qualifying criteria described in paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(C)(1) of this sec tion may request an exemption from the ownership limitation. (1) Qualifying criteria. The three qualifying criteria for an ownership limitation exemption are: The vessel owner currently has no more than 20 percent ownership interest in a vessel registered to the sablefish endorsed permit, the vessel owner currently has ownership interest in Alaska sablefish individual fishing quota, and the vessel has fished in the past 12-month period in both the West Coast groundfish lim ited entry fixed gear fishery and the Sablefish IFQ Program in Alaska. The best evidence of a vessel owner having met these qualifying criteria will be state fish tickets or landing receipts from the West Coast states and Alaska. The qualifying vessel owner may seek an ownership limitation exemption for sablefish endorsed permits registered to no more than two vessels. (2) Application and issuance process for an ownership limitation exemption. The SFD will make the qualifying criteria and application instructions available online at www.westcoast.fisheries.noaa.gov/fish eries/groundfish/index.html. A vessel owner who believes that they may qualify for the ownership limitation exemption must submit evidence with their application showing how their vessel has met the qualifying criteria described at paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(C)(1) of this section. The vessel owner must also submit a Sablefish Permit Owner ship Limitation Exemption Identifica tion of Ownership Interest form that includes disclosure of percentage of ownership in the vessel and disclosure of individual shareholders in any enti ty. Paragraph (i) of this section sets out the relevant evidentiary standards and burden of proof. Applications may be submitted at any time to NMFS at: NMFS West Coast Region, Sustainable Fisheries Division, ATTN: Fisheries Permit Office—Sablefish Ownership Limitation Exemption, 7600 Sand Point Way NE., Seattle, WA 98115. After re ceipt of a complete application, the SFD will issue an IAD in writing to the applicant determining whether the ap plicant qualifies for the exemption. If an applicant chooses to file an appeal of the IAD, the applicant must follow the appeals process outlined at para graph (g) of this section and, for the timing of the appeals, at paragraph (g)(4)(ii) of this section. (3) Exemption status. If at any time a change occurs relative to the quali fying criteria described at paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(C)(1), the vessel owner to whom the ownership limitation exemp tion applies must notify NMFS within 30 calendar days. If such changes mean the vessel owner no longer meets the qualifying criteria, the ownership limi tation exemption becomes automati cally null and void 30 calendar days after the date the vessel owner no longer meets the qualifying criteria. At any time, NMFS may request that the vessel owner submit a new exemption application. If NMFS at any time finds the vessel owner no longer meets the qualifying criteria described at para graph (b)(3)(iv)(C)(1) of this section NMFS will issue an IAD, which may be appealed, as described at paragraph (g) of this section. (v) MS/CV endorsement. An MS/CV en dorsement on a trawl limited entry permit conveys a conditional privilege that allows a vessel registered to it to fish in either the coop or non-coop fish ery in the MS Coop Program described at § 660.150, subpart D. The provisions for the MS/CV-endorsed limited entry permit, including eligibility, renewal, VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 53 Fishery Conservation and Management § 660.25 change of permit ownership, vessel reg istration, combinations, accumulation limits, fees, and appeals are described at § 660.150. Each MS/CV endorsement has an associated catch history assign ment (CHA) that is permanently linked as originally issued by NMFS and which cannot be divided or registered separately to another limited entry trawl permit. Regulations detailing this process and MS/CV-endorsed per mit combinations are outlined in § 660.150(g)(2), subpart D. (vi) C/P endorsement. A C/P endorse ment on a trawl limited entry permit conveys a conditional privilege that al lows a vessel registered to it to fish in the C/P Coop Program described at § 660.160. The provisions for the C/P-en dorsed limited entry permit, including eligibility, renewal, change of permit ownership, vessel registration, com binations, fees, and appeals are de scribed at § 660.160(e). (vii) Endorsement and exemption re strictions. ‘‘A’’ endorsements, gear en dorsements, sablefish endorsements and sablefish tier assignments, and C/P endorsements may not be registered to another permit owner (i.e., change in permit ownership or ownership inter est) or to another vessel (i.e., change in vessel registration) separately from the limited entry permit. At-sea processing exemptions, specified at paragraph (b)(6) of this section, are associated with the vessel and not with the lim ited entry permit and may not be reg istered to another permit owner or to another vessel without losing the ex emption. (4) Limited entry permit actions—re newal, combination, stacking, joint registration, change of permit owner or vessel owner, and change in vessel reg istration— (i) Renewal of limited entry permits and gear endorsements. (A) Limited entry permits expire at the end of each cal endar year, and must be renewed be tween October 1 and November 30 of each year in order to remain in force the following year. (B) Notification to renew limited entry permits will be issued by SFD prior to September 15 each year to the permit owner’s most recent address in the SFD record. The permit owner shall provide SFD with notice of any address change within 15 days of the change. (C) Limited entry permit renewal re quests received in SFD between No vember 30 and December 31 will be ef fective on the date that the renewal is approved. A limited entry permit that is allowed to expire will not be renewed unless the permit owner requests reissuance by March 31 of the following year and the SFD determines that fail ure to renew was proximately caused by illness, injury, or death of the per mit owner. (D) Limited entry permits with sable fish endorsements, as described at paragraph (b)(3)(iv) of this section, will not be renewed until SFD has received complete documentation of permit ownership as required under paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(B)(4) of this section. (E) Limited entry permits with an MS/CV endorsement or an MS permit, will not be renewed until SFD has re ceived complete documentation of per mit ownership as required under § 660.150(g) and § 660.150(f) of subpart D, respectively. (F) A limited entry permit will not be renewed until a complete economic data collection form is submitted as re quired under § 660.113(b), (c) and (d), subpart D. The permit renewal will be marked incomplete until the required information is submitted. (G) An MS permit or a limited entry permit with a C/P endorsement will not be renewed, if it was the permit owner that failed to pay, until payment of all cost recovery program fees required pursuant to § 660.115 has been made. The IAD, appeals, and final decision process for the cost recovery program is specified at § 660.115(d)(3)(ii). (ii) Combining limited entry ‘‘A’’ per mits. Two or more limited entry per mits with ‘‘A’’ gear endorsements for the same type of limited entry gear may be combined and reissued as a sin gle permit with a larger size endorse ment as described in paragraph (b)(3)(iii) of this section. (A) Sablefish-endorsed permit. With re spect to limited entry permits endorsed for longline and pot (trap) gear, a sa blefish endorsement will be issued for the new permit only if all of the per mits being combined have sablefish en dorsements. If two or more permits VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00063 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 54 50 CFR Ch. VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.25 with sablefish endorsements are com bined, the new permit will receive the same tier assignment as the tier with the largest cumulative landings limit of the permits being combined. (B) MS/CV-endorsed permit. When an MS/CV-endorsed permit is combined with another MS/CV-endorsed permit or with another limited entry trawl permit with no MS/CV or C/P endorse ment, the resulting permit will be MS/ CV-endorsed with the associated CHA as specified at § 660.150(g)(2)(iv) and (v). If an MS/CV-endorsed permit is com bined with a C/P-endorsed permit, the MS/CV endorsement and CHA will not be reissued on the combined permit. (C) C/P-endorsed permit. A C/P-en dorsed permit that is combined with a limited entry trawl permit that is not C/P-endorsed will result in a single C/P endorsed permit with a larger size en dorsement. An MS/CV endorsement on one of the permits being combined will not be reissued on the resulting permit. (iii) Stacking limited entry permits. ‘‘Stacking’’ limited entry permits, as defined at § 660.11, refers to the practice of registering more than one sablefish endorsed permit for use with a single vessel. Only limited entry permits with sablefish endorsements may be stacked. Up to 3 limited entry permits with sablefish endorsements may be registered for use with a single vessel during the sablefish primary season de scribed at § 660.231, subpart E. Privi leges, responsibilities, and restrictions associated with stacking permits to fish in the sablefish primary fishery are described at § 660.231, subpart E and at paragraph (b)(3)(iv) of this section. (iv) Joint registration of limited entry permits—(A) General. ‘‘Joint registra tion’’ of limited entry permits, as de fined at § 660.11, is the practice of si multaneously registering both trawl endorsed and longline or trap/pot-en dorsed limited entry permits for use with a single vessel. (B) Restrictions. Subject to vessel size endorsements in paragraph (b)(3)(iii), any limited entry permit with a trawl endorsement and any limited entry permit with a longline or trap/pot en dorsement may be jointly registered for use with a single vessel but only in one of the following configurations: (1) a single trawl-endorsed limited entry permit and one, two or three sa blefish-endorsed fixed gear (longline and/or fishpot endorsed) limited entry permits; or (2) a single trawl-endorsed limited entry permit and one longline-endorsed limited entry permit for use with a sin gle vessel. (v) Changes in permit owner and/or ves sel owner—(A) General. Change in per mit owner and/or vessel owner applica tions must be submitted to NMFS with the appropriate documentation de scribed at paragraphs (b)(4)(viii) and (ix) of this section. The permit owner may convey the limited entry permit to a different person. The new permit owner will not be authorized to use the permit until the change in permit owner has been registered with and ap proved by NMFS. NMFS will not ap prove a change in permit owner for a limited entry permit with a sablefish endorsement that does not meet the ownership requirements for such per mit described at paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(B) of this section. NMFS will not approve a change in permit owner for a limited entry permit with an MS/CV endorse ment or an MS permit that does not meet the ownership requirements for such permit described at § 660.150(g)(3), and § 660.150(f)(3), respectively. NMFS considers the following as a change in permit owner that would require reg istering with and approval by NMFS, including but not limited to: Selling the permit to another individual or en tity; adding an individual or entity to the legal name on the permit; or re moving an individual or entity from the legal name on the permit. A change in vessel owner includes any changes to the name(s) of any or all vessel owners, as registered with USCG or a state. The new owner(s) of a vessel registered to a limited entry permit must report any change in vessel ownership to NMFS within 30 calendar days after such change has been registered with the USCG or a state licensing agency. (B) Effective date. The change in per mit ownership or change in the vessel holding the permit will be effective on the day the change is approved by NMFS, unless there is a concurrent change in the vessel registered to the permit. Requirements for changing the VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 55 Fishery Conservation and Management § 660.25 vessel registered to the permit are de scribed at paragraph (b)(4)(vi) of this section. (C) Sablefish-endorsed permits. If a per mit owner submits an application to register a sablefish-endorsed limited entry permit to a new permit owner or vessel owner during the primary sable fish season described at § 660.231 (gen erally April 1 through October 31), the initial permit owner must certify on the application form the cumulative quantity, in round weight, of primary season sablefish landed against that permit as of the application signature date for the then current primary sea son. The new permit owner or vessel owner must sign the application form acknowledging the amount of landings to date given by the initial permit owner. This certified amount should match the total amount of primary season sablefish landings reported on state landing receipts. As required at § 660.12(b), any person landing sablefish must retain on board the vessel from which sablefish is landed, and provide to an authorized officer upon request, copies of any and all reports of sable fish landings from the primary season containing all data, and in the exact manner, required by the applicable state law throughout the primary sa blefish season during which a landing occurred and for 15 days thereafter. (D) Change in MS/CV endorsement reg istration. The requirements for a change in MS/CV endorsement registra tion between limited entry trawl per mits are specified at § 660.150(g)(2)(iv). (vi) Changes in vessel registration of limited entry permits and gear endorse ments—(A) General. A permit may not be used with any vessel other than the vessel registered to that permit. For purposes of this section, a permit change in vessel registration occurs when, through SFD, a permit owner registers a limited entry permit for use with a new vessel. Permit change in vessel registration applications must be submitted to SFD with the appro priate documentation described at paragraph (b)(4)(viii) of this section. Upon receipt of a complete application, and following review and approval of the application, the SFD will reissue the permit registered to the new vessel. Applications to change vessel registra tion on limited entry permits with sa blefish endorsements will not be ap proved until SFD has received com plete documentation of permit owner ship as described at paragraph (b)(3)(iv)(B)(4) and as required under paragraph (b)(4)(viii) of this section. Applications to change vessel registra tion on limited entry permits with trawl endorsements or MS permits will not be approved until SFD has received complete EDC forms as required under § 660.114, subpart D. (B) Application. Change in vessel reg istration applications must be sub mitted to NMFS with the appropriate documentation described at paragraphs (b)(4)(viii) and (ix) of this section. At a minimum, a permit owner seeking to change vessel registration of a limited entry permit shall submit to NMFS a signed application form and his/her current limited entry permit before the first day of the cumulative limit period in which they wish to fish. If a permit owner provides a signed application and current limited entry permit after the first day of a cumulative limit pe riod, the permit will not be effective until the succeeding cumulative limit period. NMFS will not approve a change in vessel registration until it receives a complete application, the ex isting permit, a current copy of the USCG 1270, and other required docu mentation. (C) Effective date. Changes in vessel registration on permits will take effect no sooner than the first day of the next major limited entry cumulative limit period following the date that SFD re ceives the signed permit change in ves sel registration form and the original limited entry permit, except that changes in vessel registration on MS permits and C/P-endorsed permits will take effect immediately upon reissuance to the new vessel, and a change in vessel registration on MS/ CV-endorsed permits will take effect immediately upon reissuance to the new vessel only on the second change in vessel registration for the year. No change in vessel registration is effec tive until the limited entry permit has been reissued as registered with the new vessel. (D) Sablefish-endorsed permits.

VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.25 register a sablefish-endorsed limited entry permit to a new vessel during the primary sablefish season described at § 660.231 (generally April 1 through Oc tober 31), the initial permit owner must certify on the application form the cumulative quantity, in round weight, of primary season sablefish landed against that permit as of the application signature date for the then current primary season. The new per mit owner or vessel owner associated with the new vessel must sign the ap plication form acknowledging the amount of landings to date given by the initial permit owner. This certified amount should match the total amount of primary season sablefish landings re ported on state landing receipts. As re quired at § 660.12(b), any person landing sablefish must retain on board the ves sel from which sablefish is landed, and provide to an authorized officer upon request, copies of any and all reports of sablefish landings from the primary season containing all data, and in the exact manner, required by the applica ble state law throughout the primary sablefish season during which a landing occurred and for 15 days thereafter. (vii) Restriction on frequency of changes in vessel registration—(A) Gen eral. A permit owner may designate the vessel registration for a permit as ‘‘unidentified,’’ meaning that no vessel has been identified as registered for use with that permit. No vessel is author ized to use a permit with the vessel registration designated as ‘‘unidenti fied.’’ A vessel owner who removes a permit from his vessel and registers that permit as ‘‘unidentified’’ is not ex empt from VMS requirements at § 660.14, unless specifically authorized by that section. When a permit owner requests that the permit’s vessel reg istration be designated as ‘‘unidenti fied,’’ the transaction is not considered a change in vessel registration for pur poses of this section. Any subsequent request by a permit owner to change from the ‘‘unidentified’’ status of the permit in order to register the permit with a specific vessel will be considered a change in vessel registration and sub ject to the restriction on frequency and timing of changes in vessel registra tion. (B) Limited entry fixed gear and trawl endorsed permits (without MS/CV or C/P endorsements). Limited entry fixed gear and trawl-endorsed permits (without MS/CV or C/P endorsements) may not be registered for use with a different vessel more than once per calendar year, except in cases of death of a ves sel owner or if the vessel registered to the permit is totally lost as defined in § 660.11. The exception for death of a vessel owner applies for a vessel owned by a partnership or a corporation if the person or persons with at least 50 per cent of the ownership interest in the entity dies. (C) Limited entry MS permits and lim ited entry permits with an MS/CV or a C/ P endorsement. Limited entry MS per mits and limited entry permits with an MS/CV or a C/P endorsement may be registered to another vessel up to two times during the calendar year as long as the second change in vessel registra tion is back to the original vessel. The original vessel is either the vessel reg istered to the permit as of January 1, or if no vessel is registered to the per mit as of January 1, the original vessel is the first vessel to which the permit is registered after January 1. After the original vessel has been established, the first change in vessel registration would be to another vessel, but any second change in vessel registration must be back to the original vessel.

The fol lowing evidentiary standards apply: (A) For a request to change a vessel registration and/or change a permit owner or vessel owner, the permit owner must provide NMFS with a cur rent copy of the USCG Form 1270 for vessels of 5 net tons or greater, or a current copy of a state registration form for vessels under 5 net tons. (B) For a request to change a vessel registration and/or change a permit owner or vessel owner for sablefish-en dorsed permits with a tier assignment for which a corporation or partnership is listed as permit owner and/or vessel owner, an Identification of Ownership Interest Form must be completed and included with the application form. (C) For a request to change a permit owner for an MS permit or for a re quest to change a vessel registration and/or change a permit owner or vessel owner for an MS/CV-endorsed limited entry trawl permit, an Identification of Ownership Interest Form must be com pleted and included with the applica tion form. (D) For a request to change the ves sel registration to a permit, the permit owner must submit to SFD a current marine survey conducted by a certified marine surveyor in accordance with USCG regulations to authenticate the length overall of the vessel being newly registered with the permit. Marine sur veys older than 3 years at the time of the request for change in vessel reg istration will not be considered ‘‘cur rent’’ marine surveys for purposes of this requirement. (E) For a request to change a per mit’s ownership where the current per mit owner is a corporation, partnership or other business entity, the applicant must provide to SFD a corporate reso lution that authorizes the conveyance of the permit to a new owner and which authorizes the individual applicant to request the conveyance on behalf of the corporation, partnership, or other busi ness entity. (F) For a request to change a per mit’s ownership that is necessitated by the death of the permit owner(s), the individual(s) requesting conveyance of the permit to a new owner must pro vide SFD with a death certificate of the permit owner(s) and appropriate legal documentation that either: Spe cifically registers the permit to a des ignated individual(s); or, provides legal authority to the transferor to convey the permit ownership or to request a change in vessel registration. (G) For a request to change a per mit’s ownership that is necessitated by divorce, the individual requesting the change in permit ownership must sub mit an executed divorce decree that awards the permit to a designated indi vidual(s). (H) Such other relevant, credible doc umentation as the applicant may sub mit, or the SFD or Regional Adminis trator may request or acquire, may also be considered. (ix) Application forms available. Appli cation forms for a change in vessel reg istration, permit owner, or vessel owner are available at: NMFS West Coast Region, Sustainable Fisheries Division, ATTN: Fisheries Permit Of fice, 7600 Sand Point Way NE., Seattle, WA 98115; or http:// www.westcoast.fisheries.noaa.gov/fish eries/management/groundfish permits/lim ited entry permits.html.

(6) At-sea processing exemptions—(i) Sablefish at-sea processing exemption. No new applications for sablefish at-sea processing exemptions will be accept ed. As specified at § 660.212(d)(3), sub part E, vessels are prohibited from processing sablefish at sea that were caught in the sablefish primary fishery without a sablefish at-sea processing exemption. Any sablefish at-sea proc essing exemptions were issued to a par ticular vessel and that permit and ves sel owner who requested the exemp tion. The exemption is not part of the limited entry permit. The exemption cannot be registered with any other vessel, vessel owner, or permit owner for any reason. The exemption only ap plies to at-sea processing of sablefish caught in the sablefish primary fish ery. The sablefish at-sea processing ex emption will expire upon registration of the vessel to a new owner or if the vessel is totally lost, as defined at § 660.11. (ii) Non-whiting at-sea processing ex emption. No new applications for non whiting at-sea processing exemptions will be accepted. As specified at § 660.112(b)(1)(xii), subpart D, vessels are prohibited from processing non-whiting groundfish at sea that were caught in the Shorebased IFQ Program without a non-whiting at-sea processing exemp tion. Any non-whiting at-sea proc essing exemptions were issued to a par ticular vessel and that permit and/or vessel owner who requested the exemp tion. The exemption is not part of the limited entry permit. The exemption is not transferable to any other vessel, vessel owner, or permit owner for any reason. The exemption only applies to at-sea processing of non-whiting groundfish caught in the Shorebased IFQ Program. The non-whiting at-sea processing exemption will expire upon registration of the vessel to a new owner or if the vessel is totally lost, as defined at § 660.11. (c) Quota share (QS) permit. A QS per mit conveys a conditional privilege to a person to own QS or IBQ for des ignated species and species groups and to fish in the Shorebased IFQ Program described § 660.140, subpart D. A QS per mit is not a limited entry permit. The provisions for the QS permit, including eligibility, renewal, change of permit ownership, accumulation limits, fees, and appeals are described at § 660.140, subpart D. (d) First receiver site license. The first receiver site license conveys a condi tional privilege to a first receiver to receive, purchase, or take custody, con trol or possession of landings from the Shorebased IFQ Program. The first re ceiver site license is issued for a person and a unique physical site consistent with the terms and conditions required to account for and weigh the landed species. A first receiver site license is not a limited entry permit. The provi sions for the First Receiver Site Li cense, including eligibility, registra tion, change of ownership, fees, and ap peals are described at § 660.140(f), sub part D. (e) Coop permit—(1) MS coop permit. An MS coop permit conveys a condi tional privilege to an eligible coop en tity to receive and manage a coop’s al location of designated species and spe cies groups. An MS coop permit is not a limited entry permit. The provisions for the MS coop permit, including eli gibility, annual registration, fees, and appeals are described in the MS Coop Program at § 660.150, subpart D. (2) C/P coop permit. A C/P coop permit conveys a conditional privilege to an eligible coop entity to receive and manage a coop’s allocation of des ignated species and species groups. A C/ P coop permit is not a limited entry permit. The provisions for the C/P coop permit, including eligibility, annual registration, fees, and appeals are de scribed in the C/P Coop Program at § 660.160, subpart D. (1) MS coop permit. [Reserved] (2) C/P coop permit. [Reserved] (f) Permit fees. The Regional Adminis trator is authorized to charge fees to cover administrative expenses related to issuance of permits including initial issuance, renewal, permit registration, vessel registration, replacement, and appeals. The appropriate fee must ac company each application.

For permit actions, including issuance, renewal, change in vessel registration and/or change in permit owner or ves sel owner, and endorsement upgrade, the Assistant Regional Administrator for Sustainable Fisheries will make an IAD on the action. In cases where the applicant disagrees with the IAD, the applicant may appeal that decision. Final decisions on appeals of IADs re garding issuance, renewal, change in vessel registration and/or change in permit owner or vessel owner, and en dorsement upgrade, will be made in writing by the Regional Administrator acting on behalf of the Secretary of Commerce and will state the reasons therefore. This section describes the procedures for appealing the IAD on permit actions made in this title under subparts C through G of part 660. Addi tional information regarding appeals of an IAD related to the trawl rational ization program is contained in the specific program sections under sub part D of part 660. (2) Who May Appeal? Only a person who received an IAD that disapproved any part of their application may file a written appeal. For purposes of this section, such person will be referred to as the ‘‘applicant.’’ (3) Submission of appeals. (i) The ap peal must be in writing, must allege credible facts or circumstances to show why the criteria in this subpart have been met, and must include any rel evant information or documentation to support the appeal. (ii) Appeals must be mailed or faxed to: National Marine Fisheries Service, Northwest Region, Sustainable Fish eries Division, ATTN: Appeals, 7600 Sand Point Way NE., Seattle, WA, 98115; Fax: 206–526–6426; or delivered to National Marine Fisheries Service at the same address. (4) Timing of appeals. (i) For permit actions related to the application and initial issuance process for QS permits, MS permits, MS/CV endorsements, and C/P endorsements for the trawl ration alization program listed in subpart D of part 660, if an applicant appeals an IAD, the appeal must be postmarked, faxed, or hand delivered to NMFS no later than 60 calendar days after the date on the IAD. If the applicant does not appeal the IAD within 60 calendar days, the IAD becomes the final deci sion of the Regional Administrator act ing on behalf of the Secretary of Com merce. (ii) For all other permit actions, if an applicant appeals an IAD, the appeal must be postmarked, faxed, or hand de livered to NMFS no later than 30 cal endar days after the date on the IAD. If the applicant does not appeal the IAD within 30 calendar days, the IAD be comes the final decision of the Re gional Administrator acting on behalf of the Secretary of Commerce. (iii) The time period to submit an ap peal begins with the date on the IAD. If the last day of the time period is a Sat urday, Sunday, or Federal holiday, the time period will extend to the close of business on the next business day. (5) Address of record. For purposes of the appeals process, NMFS will estab lish as the address of record, the ad dress used by the applicant in initial correspondence to NMFS. Notifications of all actions affecting the applicant after establishing an address of record will be mailed to that address, unless the applicant provides NMFS, in writ ing, with any changes to that address. NMFS bears no responsibility if a noti fication is sent to the address of record and is not received because the appli cant’s actual address has changed with out notification to NMFS. (6) Decisions on appeals. (i) For the ap peal of an IAD related to the applica tion and initial issuance process for the trawl rationalization program listed in subpart D of part 660, the Regional Ad ministrator shall appoint an appeals officer. After determining there is suf ficient information and that all proce dural requirements have been met, the appeals officer will review the record and issue a recommendation on the ap peal to the Regional Administrator, which shall be advisory only. The rec ommendation must be based solely on the record. Upon receiving the findings and recommendation, the Regional Ad ministrator shall issue a final decision on the appeal acting on behalf of the Secretary of Commerce in accordance with paragraph (g)(6)(ii) of this section.

(i) For all permit actions, except those ac tions related to the application and ini tial issuance process for the trawl ra tionalization program listed in subpart D of part 660, the permit registration remains as it was prior to the request until the final decision has been made. (ii) For permit actions related to the application and initial issuance process for the trawl rationalization program listed in subpart D of part 660, the sta tus of permits pending appeal is as fol lows: (A) For permit and endorsement qualifications and eligibility appeals (i.e., QS permit, MS permit, MS/CV en dorsement, C/P endorsement), any per mit or endorsement under appeal after December 31, 2010 may not be used to fish in the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery until a final decision on the ap peal has been made. If the permit or endorsement will be issued, the permit or endorsement will be effective upon approval, except for QS permits, which will be effective at the start of the next fishing year. (B) For a QS or IBQ amount for spe cific IFQ management unit species under appeal, the QS or IBQ amount for the IFQ species under appeal will remain as the amount assigned to the associated QS permit in the IAD). The QS permit may be used to fish in the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery with the QS or IBQ amounts assigned to the QS permit in the IAD. Once a final de cision on the appeal has been made and if a revised QS or IBQ amount for a specific IFQ species will be assigned to the QS permit, the additional QS or IBQ amount associated with the QS permit will be effective at the start of the next calendar year following the final decision. (C) For a Pacific whiting catch his tory assignment associated with an MS/CV endorsement under appeal, the catch history assignment will remain as that previously assigned to the asso ciated MS/CV-endorsed limited entry permit in the IAD). The MS/CV-en dorsed limited entry permit may be used to fish in the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery with the catch his tory assigned to the MS/CV-endorsed permit in the IAD. Once a final deci sion on the appeal has been made, and if a revised catch history assignment will be issued, the additional Pacific whiting catch history assignment asso ciated with the MS/CV endorsement will be effective at the start of the next calendar year following the final deci sion. (h) Permit sanctions. (1) All permits and licenses issued or applied for under Subparts C through G are subject to sanctions pursuant to the Magnuson Stevens Act at 16 U.S.C. 1858(g) and 15 CFR part 904, subpart D. (2) All Shorebased IFQ Program per mits (QS permit, first receiver site li cense), QS accounts, vessel accounts, and MS Coop Program permits (MS permit, MS/CV-endorsed permit, and MS coop permit), and C/P Coop Pro gram permits (C/P-endorsed permit, C/ P coop permit) issued under subpart D: (i) Are considered permits for the purposes of 16 U.S.C. 1857, 1858, and 1859; (ii) May be revoked, limited, or modi fied at any time in accordance with the Magnuson-Stevens Act, including rev ocation if the system is found to have jeopardized the sustainability of the stocks or the safety of fishermen; (iii) Shall not confer any right of compensation to the holder of such per mits, licenses, and accounts if it is re voked, limited, or modified; (iv) Shall not create, or be construed to create, any right, title, or interest in or to any fish before the fish is har vested by the holder; and (v) Shall be considered a grant of per mission to the holder of the permit, li cense, or account to engage in activi ties permitted by such permit, license, or account.

NMFS may issue an EFP allowing a vessel to re tain fish as compensation in excess of trip limits or to be exempt from other specified management measures for the Pacific coast groundfish fishery. (a) Compensation EFP for vessels under contract with NMFS to conduct a resource survey. NMFS may issue an EFP to the owner or operator of a vessel that con ducted a resource survey according to a contract with NMFS. A vessel’s total compensation from all sources (in terms of dollars or amount of fish, in cluding fish from survey samples or compensation fish) will be determined through normal Federal procurement procedures. The compensation EFP will specify the maximum amount or value of fish the vessel may take and retain after the resource survey is com pleted. (1) Competitive offers. NMFS may ini tiate a competitive solicitation (re quest for proposals or RFP) to select vessels to conduct resource surveys that use fish as full or partial com pensation, following normal Federal procurement procedures. (2) Consultation and approval. At a Council meeting, NMFS will consult with the Council and receive public comment on upcoming resource sur veys to be conducted if groundfish could be used as whole or partial com pensation. Generally, compensation fish would be similar to surveyed spe cies, but there may be reasons to pro vide payment with healthier, more abundant, less restricted stocks, or more easily targeted species. For ex ample, NMFS may decline to pay a ves sel with species that are, or are ex pected to be, overfished, or that are subject to overfishing, or that are un avoidably caught with species that are overfished or subject to overfishing. NMFS may also consider levels of dis cards, bycatch, and other factors. If the Council does not approve providing whole or partial compensation for the conduct of a survey, NMFS will not use fish, other than fish taken during the scientific research, as compensation for that survey. For each proposal, NMFS will present: (i) The maximum number of vessels expected or needed to conduct the sur vey, (ii) An estimate of the species and amount of fish likely to be needed as compensation, (iii) When the survey and compensa tion fish would be taken, and (iv) The year in which the compensa tion fish would be deducted from the ACL or ACT before determining the fishery harvest guideline or commer cial harvest guideline. (3) Issuance of the compensation EFP. Upon successful completion of the sur vey, NMFS will issue a ‘‘compensation EFP’’ to the vessel if it has not been fully compensated. The procedures in § 600.745(b)(1) through (b)(4) of this chapter do not apply to a compensation EFP issued under this subpart for the Pacific coast groundfish fishery (50 CFR part 660, subparts C through G). (4) Terms and conditions of the com pensation EFP. Conditions for disposi tion of bycatch or any excess catch, for reporting the value of the amount landed, and other appropriate terms and conditions may be specified in the EFP. Compensation fishing must occur during the period specified in the EFP, but no later than the end of September of the fishing year following the sur vey, and must be conducted according to the terms and conditions of the EFP. (5) Reporting the compensation catch. The compensation EFP may require the vessel owner or operator to keep separate records of compensation fish ing and to submit them to NMFS with in a specified period of time after the compensation fishing is completed. (6) Accounting for the compensation catch. As part of the harvest specifica tions process, as described at § 660.60, subpart C, NMFS will advise the Coun cil of the amount of fish authorized to be retained under a compensation EFP, which then will be deducted from the next harvest specifications (ACLs or ACTs) set by the Council. Fish author ized in an EFP too late in the year to be deducted from the following year’s ACLs or ACTs will be accounted for in the next management cycle where it is practicable to do so.

VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.40 (b) Compensation for commercial vessels collecting resource information under a standard EFP. NMFS may issue an EFP to allow a commercial fishing vessel to take and retain fish in excess of current management limits for the purpose of collecting resource information (§ 600.745(b) of this chap ter). The EFP may include a compensa tion clause that allows the partici pating vessel to be compensated with fish for its efforts to collect resource information according to NMFS’ ap proved protocol. If compensation with fish is requested in an EFP application, or proposed by NMFS, the following provisions apply in addition to those at § 600.745(b) of this chapter. (1) Application. In addition to the re quirements in § 600.745(b) of this chap ter, application for an EFP with a com pensation clause must clearly state whether a vessel’s participation is con tingent upon compensation with groundfish and, if so, the minimum amount (in metric tons, round weight) and the species. As with other EFPs issued under § 600.745 of this chapter, the application may be submitted by any individual, including a state fish ery management agency or other re search institution. (2) Denial. In addition to the reasons stated in § 600.745(b)(3)(iii) of this chap ter, the application will be denied if the requested compensation fishery, species, or amount is unacceptable for reasons such as, but not limited to, the following: NMFS concludes the value of the resource information is not com mensurate with the value of the com pensation fish; the proposed compensa tion involves species that are (or are expected to be) overfished or subject to overfishing, fishing in times or areas where fishing is otherwise prohibited or severely restricted, or fishing for species that would involve unavoidable bycatch of species that are overfished or subject to overfishing; or NMFS con cludes the information can reasonably be obtained at a less cost to the re source. (3) Window period for other applica tions. If the Regional Administrator or designee agrees that compensation should be considered, and that more than a minor amount would be used as compensation, then a window period will be announced in the FEDERAL REG ISTER during which additional partici pants will have an opportunity to apply. This notification would be made at the same time as announcement of receipt of the application and request for comments required under § 600.745(b). If there are more qualified applicants than needed for a particular time and area, NMFS will choose among the qualified vessels, either ran domly, in order of receipt of the com pleted application, or by other impar tial selection methods. If the permit applicant is a state, university, or Fed eral entity other than NMFS, and NMFS approves the selection method, the permit applicant may choose among the qualified vessels, either ran domly, in order of receipt of the vessel application, or by other impartial se lection methods. (4) Terms and conditions. The EFP will specify the amounts that may be taken as scientific samples and as compensa tion, the time period during which the compensation fishing must occur, man agement measures that NMFS will waive for a vessel fishing under the EFP, and other terms and conditions appropriate to the fishery and the col lection of resource information. NMFS may require compensation fishing to occur on the same trip that the re source information is collected. (5) Accounting for the catch. Samples taken under this EFP, as well as any compensation fish, count toward the current year’s catch or landings.

(a) Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes have treaty rights. Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes have treaty rights to har vest groundfish in their usual and ac customed fishing areas in U.S. waters. In 1994, the United States formally rec ognized that the four Washington coastal treaty Indian tribes (Makah, Quileute, Hoh, and Quinault) have trea ty rights to fish for groundfish in the Pacific Ocean, and concluded that, in general terms, the quantification of those rights is 50 percent of the har vestable surplus of groundfish that pass through the tribes U&A fishing areas. (b) Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes. For the purposes of this part, Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes means the Hoh Indian Tribe, Makah Indian Tribe, Quileute Indian Tribe and the Quinault Indian Nation. (c) Usual and accustomed fishing areas or U&A fishing areas. The Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes’ U&A fishing areas within the EEZ are set out in § 660.4. (d) Procedures. The rights referred to in paragraph (a) of this section will be implemented by the Secretary, after consideration of the tribal request, the recommendation of the Council, and the comments of the public. The rights will be implemented either through an allocation or set-aside of fish that will be managed by the tribes, or through regulations in this section that will apply specifically to the tribal fish eries. (1) Tribal allocations, set-asides, and regulations. An allocation, set-aside or a regulation specific to the tribes shall be initiated by a written request from a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe to the Regional Administrator, prior to the first Council meeting in which bi ennial harvest specifications and man agement measures are discussed for an upcoming biennial management period. The Secretary generally will announce the annual tribal allocations at the same time as the announcement of the harvest specifications. (2) Co-management. The Secretary recognizes the sovereign status and co manager role of Indian tribes over shared Federal and tribal fishery re sources. Accordingly, the Secretary will develop tribal allocations and reg ulations under this paragraph in con sultation with the affected tribe(s) and, insofar as possible, with tribal con sensus. (e) Fishing by a member of a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe. A member of a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe fish ing under this section and within their U&A fishing area is not subject to the provisions of other sections of subparts C through G of this part. (1) Identification. A valid treaty In dian identification card issued pursu ant to 25 CFR part 249, subpart A, is prima facie evidence that the holder is a member of the Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe named on the card. (2) Permits. A limited entry permit described under § 660.25, subpart C is not required for a member of a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe to fish in a tribal fishery described in paragraph (d) of this section. (3) Federal and tribal laws and regula tions. Any member of a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe must comply with this section, and with any applicable tribal law and regulation, when partici pating in a tribal groundfish fishery de scribed in this section.

(i) Harvest guide lines for commercial harvests of black rockfish by members of the Pacific Coast Indian tribes using hook and line gear will be established biennially for two subsequent one-year periods for the areas between the U.S.-Canadian border and Cape Alava (48°09.50′ N. lat.) and between Destruction Island (47°40′ N. lat.) and Leadbetter Point (46°38.17′ N. lat.), in accordance with the proce dures for implementing harvest speci fications and management measures. Pacific Coast treaty Indians fishing for black rockfish in these areas under these harvest guidelines are subject to the provisions in this section, and not to the restrictions in other sections of subparts C through G of this part. (ii) For the commercial harvest of black rockfish off Washington State, a treaty Indian tribes’ harvest guideline is set at 30,000 lb (13,608 kg) for the area north of Cape Alava, WA (48°09.50′ N. lat) and 10,000 lb (4,536 kg) for the area between Destruction Island, WA (47°40′ N. lat.) and Leadbetter Point, WA (46°38.17′ N. lat.). This harvest guideline applies and is available to the Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribes. There are no tribal harvest restrictions for black rockfish in the area between Cape Alava and Destruction Island. (2) Sablefish. (i) The sablefish alloca tion to Pacific coast treaty Indian Tribes is 10 percent of the sablefish ACL for the area north of 36° N. lat. This allocation represents the total amount available to the treaty Indian fisheries before deductions for discard mortality. (ii) The Tribal allocation is 689.2 mt in 2021 and 656.6 mt in 2022 per year. This allocation is, for each year, 10 per cent of the Monterey through Van couver area (North of 36° N lat.) ACL. The Tribal allocation is reduced by 1.7 percent for estimated discard mor tality. (3) Lingcod. Lingcod taken in the treaty fisheries are subject to a harvest guideline of 250 mt. (4) Pacific whiting. The tribal alloca tion for 2022 is 70,463 mt. (5) Pacific cod. There is a tribal har vest guideline of 500 mt of Pacific cod per year. The tribes will manage their fisheries to stay within this harvest guideline. (6) Petrale sole. For petrale sole, trea ty fishing vessels are restricted to a fleetwide harvest target of 350 mt each year. (7) Yellowtail rockfish. Yellowtail rockfish taken in the directed tribal mid-water trawl fisheries are subject to a catch limit of 1,000 mt for the entire fleet, per year. (8) Spiny dogfish. Spiny dogfish taken in the treaty fisheries are subject to an overall expected total spiny dogfish catch of 275 mt per year. (9) Widow rockfish. Widow rockfish taken in the directed tribal midwater trawl fisheries are subject to a catch limit of 200 mt for the entire fleet, per year. (g) Pacific Coast treaty Indian fisheries management measures. Trip limits for certain species were recommended by the tribes and the Council and are spec ified here. (1) Rockfish. The tribes will require full retention of all overfished rockfish species and all other marketable rock fish species during treaty fisheries. (2) Yelloweye rockfish—are subject to a 100-lb (45-kg) trip limit. (3) Other rockfish—(i) Minor nearshore rockfish. Minor nearshore rockfish are subject to a 300-lb (136-kg) trip limit per species or species group, or to the non-tribal limited entry trip limit for those species if those limits are less re strictive than 300 lb (136 kg) per trip. Limited entry trip limits for waters off Washington are specified in Table 1 (North) to subpart D, and Table 2 (North) to subpart E of this part. (ii) Minor shelf rockfish and minor slope rockfish. Redstripe rockfish are subject to an 800 lb (363 kg) trip limit. Minor shelf (excluding redstripe rock fish), and minor slope rockfish groups are subject to a 300 lb (136 kg) trip limit per species or species group, or to the non-tribal limited entry fixed gear trip limit for those species if those lim its are less restrictive than 300 lb (136 kg) per trip.

Tribal whiting processed at-sea by non-tribal vessels, must be transferred within the tribal U&A from a member of a Pacific Coast treaty Indian tribe fishing under this section. (5) Groundfish without a tribal alloca tion. Makah tribal members may use midwater trawl gear to take and retain groundfish for which there is no tribal allocation and will be subject to the trip landing and frequency and size limits applicable to the limited entry fishery. (6) EFH. Measures implemented to minimize adverse impacts to ground fish EFH, as described in § 660.12 of this subpart, do not apply to tribal fisheries in their U&A fishing areas described at § 660.4, subpart A. (7) Small footrope trawl gear. Makah tribal members fishing in the bottom trawl fishery may use only small footrope (less than or equal to 8 inches (20.3 cm)) bottom trawl gear. (h) Salmon bycatch.

(a) General. The opportunity to har vest Pacific Coast groundfish is allo cated among participants in the fishery when the ACLs for a given year are es tablished in the biennial harvest speci fications. For any stock that has been declared overfished, any formal alloca tion may be temporarily revised for the duration of the rebuilding period. For certain species, primarily trawl-domi nant species, separate allocations for the trawl and nontrawl fishery (which for this purpose includes limited entry fixed gear, directed open access, and recreational fisheries) will be estab lished biennially or annually using the standards and procedures described in Chapter 6 of the PCGFMP. Chapter 6 of the PCGFMP provides the allocation structure and percentages for species allocated between the trawl and nontrawl fisheries. Also, for those spe cies not subject to the trawl and nontrawl allocations specified under Amendment 21 and in paragraph (c)(1) of this section, separate allocations for the limited entry and open access fish eries may be established using the pro cedures described in Chapters 6 and 11 of the PCGFMP and this subpart. Allo cation of sablefish north of 36° N lat. is described in paragraph (h) of this sec tion and in the PCGFMP. Allocation of Pacific whiting is described in para graph (i) of this section and in the PCGFMP. Allocation of black rockfish is described in paragraph (l) of this sec tion. Allocation of Pacific halibut by catch is described in paragraph (m) of this section. Allocations not specified in the PCGFMP are established in reg ulation through the biennial harvest specifications and are listed in Tables 1 a through d and Tables 2 a through d of this subpart. (b) Fishery harvest guidelines and re ductions made prior to fishery allocations. Prior to the setting of fishery alloca tions, the TAC, ACL, or ACT when specified, is reduced by the Pacific Coast treaty Indian Tribal harvest (al locations, set-asides, and estimated harvest under regulations at § 660.50); projected scientific research catch of all groundfish species, estimates of fishing mortality in non-groundfish fisheries; and, as necessary, deductions to account for unforeseen catch events and deductions for EFPs. Deductions are listed in the footnotes of Tables 1a and 2a of subpart C of this part. The re maining amount after these deductions is the fishery harvest guideline or quota.

(i) Trawl fishery allocation. The allo cation for the limited entry trawl fish ery is derived by applying the trawl al location amounts and percentages as specified in paragraph (c) of this sec tion and as specified during the bien nial harvest specifications process to the fishery harvest guideline for spe cies/species groups and areas. For IFQ species the trawl allocation is further subdivided within each of the trawl sectors (MS, C/P, and IFQ) as specified in § 660.140, 660.150, and 660.160 of sub part D. The whiting allocation is fur ther subdivided among the trawl sec tors as specified in paragraph (c)(1)(i) of this section. (ii) Nontrawl fishery allocation. For each species/species group and area, the nontrawl fishery allocation is derived by subtracting from the corresponding harvest guideline the trawl allocations specified in paragraph (c) of this sec tion and during the biennial harvest specifications. The nontrawl allocation will be shared between the limited entry fixed gear, open access, and rec reational fisheries as specified through the biennial harvest specifications process and consistent with allocations in the PCGFMP. (2) [Reserved] (d) Commercial harvest guidelines. To derive the commercial harvest guide line, the fishery harvest guideline is further reduced by the recreational set asides.

(e) Limited entry (LE)/open access (OA) allocations—(1) LE/OA allocation percent ages. The allocations between the lim ited entry and open access fisheries are based on standards from the PCGFMP. (2) Species with LE/OA allocations. For species with LE/OA allocations that are not subject to Amendment 21 allo cations, the allocation between the limited entry (both trawl and fixed gear) and the open access fisheries is determined by applying the percentage for those species with a LE/OA alloca tion to the commercial harvest guide line plus the amount set-aside for the non-groundfish fisheries. (i) Limited entry allocation. The allo cation for the limited entry fishery is the commercial harvest guideline minus any allocation to the directed open access fishery. (ii) Open access allocation. The alloca tion for the open access fishery is de rived by applying the open access allo cation percentage to the annual com mercial harvest guideline or quota plus the non-groundfish fishery (i.e., inci dental open access fishery) amount de scribed in paragraph (b) of this section. The result is the total open access allo cation. The portion that is set-aside for the non-groundfish fisheries is de ducted and the remainder is the di rected open access portion. For man agement areas or stocks for which quotas or harvest guidelines for a stock are not fully utilized, no separate allo cation will be established for the open access fishery until it is projected that the allowable catch for a species will be reached. (A) Open access allocation percentage. For each species with a harvest guide line or quota, the initial open access allocation percentage is calculated by: (1) Computing the total catch for that species during the window period (July 11, 1984 through August 1, 1988) for the limited entry program by any vessel that did not initially receive a limited entry permit. (2) Dividing that amount by the total catch during the window period by all gear. (3) The guidelines in this paragraph apply to recalculation of the open ac cess allocation percentage. Any recal culated allocation percentage will be used in calculating the following bien nial fishing period’s open access alloca tion. (B) [Reserved] (f) Catch accounting. Catch account ing refers to how the catch in a fishery is monitored against the allocations described in this section. For species with trawl/nontrawl allocations, catch of those species are counted against the trawl/nontrawl allocations as ex plained in paragraph (f)(1) of this sec tion. For species with limited entry/ open access allocations in a given bien nial cycle, catch of those species are counted against the limited entry/open access allocations as explained in para graph (f)(1)(ii) of this section. (1) Between the trawl and nontrawl fisheries—(i) Catch accounting for the trawl allocation. Any groundfish caught by a vessel registered to a limited entry trawl-endorsed permit will be counted against the trawl allocation while they are declared in to a ground fish limited entry trawl fishery and while the applicable trawl fishery list ed in subpart D of this part for that vessel’s limited entry permit is open. (ii) Catch accounting for the nontrawl allocation. All groundfish caught by a vessel not registered to a limited entry permit and not fishing in the non groundfish fishery will be counted against the nontrawl allocation. All groundfish caught by a vessel reg istered to a limited entry permit when the fishery for a vessel’s limited entry permit has closed or they are not de clared in to a limited entry fishery, will be counted against the nontrawl allocation, unless they are declared in to a non-groundfish fishery. Catch by vessels fishing in the non-groundfish fishery, as defined at § 660.11, will be ac counted for in the estimated mortality in the non-groundfish fishery that is deducted from the ACL or ACT when specified. (2) [Reserved] (g) Recreational fisheries. Recreational fishing for groundfish is outside the scope of, and not affected by, the regu lations governing limited entry and open access fisheries. Certain amounts of groundfish will be set aside for the recreational fishery during the bien nial specifications process.

VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.55 amounts will be estimated prior to di viding the commercial harvest guide line between the limited entry and open access fisheries. (h) Sablefish Allocations (north of 36° N. lat.). The allocations of sablefish north of 36° N. lat. described in para graph (h) of this section are specified in Chapter 6 of the PCGFMP. (1) Tribal/nontribal allocation. The sa blefish allocation to Pacific coast trea ty Indian tribes is identified at § 660.50(f)(2). The remainder is available to the nontribal fishery (limited entry, open access (directed and incidental), and research). (2) Between the limited entry and open access fisheries. The allocation of sable fish after tribal deductions is further reduced by the estimated total mor tality of sablefish in research and rec reational fisheries; the remaining yield (commercial harvest guideline) is di vided between open access and limited entry fisheries. The limited entry fish ery allocation is 90.6 percent of the commercial harvest guideline. The open access allocation is 9.4 percent of the commercial harvest guideline and includes incidental catch in non groundfish fisheries, or incidental open access. (3) Between the limited entry trawl and limited entry fixed gear fisheries. The limited entry sablefish allocation is further allocated 58 percent to the trawl fishery and 42 percent to the lim ited entry fixed gear (longline and pot/ trap) fishery. (4) Between the limited entry fixed gear primary season and daily trip limit fish eries. Within the limited entry fixed gear fishery allocation, 85 percent is re served for the primary season described in § 660.231, subpart E, leaving 15 per cent for the limited entry daily trip limit fishery described in § 660.232, sub part E. (5) Ratios between tiers for sablefish-en dorsed limited entry permits. The Re gional Administrator will biennially or annually calculate the size of the cu mulative trip limit for each of the three tiers associated with the sable fish endorsement such that the ratio of limits between the tiers is approxi mately 1:1.75:3.85 for Tier 3:Tier 2:Tier 1, respectively. The size of the cumu lative trip limits will vary depending on the amount of sablefish available for the primary fishery and on esti mated discard mortality rates within the fishery. The size of the cumulative trip limits for the three tiers in the primary fishery will be announced in § 660.231(b)(3), subpart E. (i) Pacific whiting allocation. The allo cation structure and percentages for Pacific whiting are described in the PCGFMP. (1) Annual treaty tribal Pacific whit ing allocations are provided in § 660.50, subpart C. (2) The fishery harvest guideline for Pacific whiting is allocated among three sectors, as follows: 34 percent for the C/P Coop Program; 24 percent for the MS Coop Program; and 42 percent for the Shore based IFQ Program. No more than 5 percent of the Shore based IFQ Program allocation may be taken and retained south of 42° N. lat. before the start of the primary Pacific whit ing season north of 42° N. lat. Specific sector allocations for a given calendar year are found in Tables 1a through c and 2a through c of this subpart. Set asides for other species for the at-sea whiting fishery for a given calendar year are found in Tables 1D and 2D of this subpart. (j) Fishery set-asides. Annual set asides are not formal allocations but they are amounts which are not avail able to the other fisheries during the fishing year. For Pacific Coast treaty Indian fisheries, set-asides will be de ducted from the TAC, OY, ACL, or ACT when specified. For the catcher/proc essor and mothership sectors of the at sea Pacific whiting fishery, set-asides will be deducted from the limited entry trawl fishery allocation. Set-aside amounts may be adjusted through the biennial harvest specifications and management measures process. (k) [Reserved] (l) Black rockfish harvest guideline. The commercial tribal harvest guide line for black rockfish off Washington State is specified at § 660.50(f)(1), sub part C. (m) Pacific halibut bycatch allocation.

The TCEY used for these calculations will be the best estimate of the TCEY available from the Inter national Pacific Halibut Commission at the time of the calculation. For the purpose of this paragraph, the term ‘‘legal sized’’ halibut refers to halibut with a total length of 32 inches and above, or O32, and the term ‘‘sublegal sized’’ halibut refers to halibut under 32 inches in total length, or U32. To de termine the trawl bycatch mortality limit, the pounds of halibut available to the trawl fleet will be expanded from the legal sized halibut mortality (net weight) to a round weight legal and sublegal sized amount. To convert from net weight to round weight, multiply by the conversion factor used by the International Pacific Halibut Commis sion at the time of calculation for net weight to round weight. To convert from legal sized halibut to legal and sublegal sized halibut, multiply by the conversion factor from the NMFS trawl fishery bycatch report as reported to the International Pacific Halibut Com mission at the time of calculation for legal sized to legal and sublegal sized halibut. The bycatch allocation per cent can be adjusted downward or up ward through the biennial specifica tions and management measures proc ess but the upper bound on the max imum pounds of allocation can only be changed though an FMP amendment. Part of the overall total mortality limit is a set-aside of 10 mt of Pacific halibut (legal and sublegal, round weight), to accommodate bycatch in the at-sea Pacific whiting fishery and in the shorebased trawl fishery south of 40°10′ N. lat. (estimated to be ap proximately 5 mt each). This set-aside can be adjusted through the biennial specifications and management meas ures process.

(a) General. NMFS will establish and adjust specifications and management measures biennially or annually and during the fishing year. Management of the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery will be conducted consistent with the standards and procedures in the PCGFMP and other applicable law. The PCGFMP is available from the Re gional Administrator or the Council. Regulations under this subpart may be promulgated, removed, or revised dur ing the fishing year. Any such action will be made according to the frame work standards and procedures in the PCGFMP and other applicable law, and will be published in the FEDERAL REG ISTER. (b) Biennial actions. The Pacific Coast Groundfish fishery is managed on a bi ennial, calendar year basis. Harvest specifications and management meas ures will be announced biennially, with the harvest specifications for each spe cies or species group set for two se quential calendar years. In general, management measures are designed to achieve, but not exceed, the specifica tions, particularly optimum yields (harvest guidelines and quotas), fishery harvest guidelines, commercial harvest guidelines and quotas, limited entry and open access allocations, or other approved fishery allocations, and to protect overfished and depleted stocks. Management measures will be designed to take into account the co-occurrence ratios of target species with overfished species, and will select measures that will minimize bycatch to the extent practicable.

Council meetings are held in the months of March, April, June, September, and November. Inseason changes to routine management measures are announced in the FEDERAL REGISTER pursuant to the requirements of the APA. Changes to trip limits are effective at the times stated in the FEDERAL REGISTER. Once a trip limit change is effective, it is il legal to take and retain, possess, or land more fish than allowed under the new trip limit. This means that, unless otherwise announced in the FEDERAL REGISTER, offloading must begin before the time a fishery closes or a more re strictive trip limit takes effect. The following catch restrictions have been designated as routine: (1) Commercial Limited Entry and Open Access Fisheries—(i) Trip landing and fre quency limits, size limits, all gear. Trip landing and frequency limits have been designated as routine for the following species or species groups: Widow rock fish, canary rockfish, yellowtail rock fish, Pacific ocean perch, yelloweye rockfish, black rockfish, blue/deacon rockfish, splitnose rockfish, blackgill rockfish in the area south of 40°10′ N. lat., chilipepper, bocaccio, cowcod, Minor Nearshore Rockfish or shallow and deeper Minor Nearshore Rockfish, shelf or Minor Shelf Rockfish, and Minor Slope Rockfish; Dover sole, sa blefish, shortspine thornyheads, and longspine thornyheads; petrale sole, rex sole, arrowtooth flounder, Pacific sanddabs, big skate, and the Other Flatfish complex, which is composed of those species plus any other flatfish species listed at § 660.11; Pacific whit ing; lingcod; Pacific cod; spiny dogfish; longnose skate; cabezon in Oregon and California and ‘‘Other Fish’’ as defined at § 660.11. In addition to the species and species groups listed above, sub limits or aggregate limits may be spec ified, specific to the Shorebased IFQ Program, for the following species: Big skate, California skate, California scorpionfish, leopard shark, soupfin shark, finescale codling, Pacific rattail (grenadier), ratfish, kelp greenling, shortbelly rockfish, and cabezon in Washington. Size limits have been des ignated as routine for sablefish and lingcod. Trip landing and frequency limits and size limits for species with those limits designated as routine may be imposed or adjusted on a biennial or more frequent basis for the purpose of keeping landings within the harvest levels announced by NMFS, and for the other purposes given in paragraphs (c)(1)(i)(A) and (B) of this section. (ii) Differential trip landing limits and frequency limits based on gear type, closed seasons, and bycatch limits. Trip landing and frequency limits that dif fer by gear type and closed seasons may be imposed or adjusted on a bien nial or more frequent basis for the pur pose of rebuilding and protecting over fished or depleted stocks.

Requirements and restric tions on limited entry trawl gear type are found at § 660.130(b). (iv) List of IFQ species documented on Observer Program reporting form. As specified at § 660.140(h)(1)(i), to be ex empt from observer coverage while docked in port depends on documenta tion of specified retained IFQ species on the Observer Program reporting form. The list of IFQ species docu mented on the Observer Program form may be modified on a biennial or more frequent basis under routine manage ment measures § 660.60(c)(1). (v) Shorebased IFQ Program surplus carryover percentage. As specified at § 660.140(e)(5)(i), a percentage of surplus QP or IBQ pounds in a vessel account may be carried over from one year to the next. The percentage of surplus QP or IBQ pounds, that may be carried over may be modified on a biennial or more frequent basis, and may not be higher than 10 percent. (2) Recreational fisheries all gear types. Routine management measures for all groundfish species, separately or in any combination, include bag limits, size limits, time/area closures, boat limits, hook limits, and dressing require ments. All routine management meas ures on recreational fisheries are in tended to keep landings within the har vest levels announced by NMFS, to re build and protect overfished or de pleted species, and to maintain consist ency with State regulations, and for the other purposes set forth in this sec tion. (i) Bag limits. To spread the available catch over a large number of anglers; to protect and rebuild overfished spe cies; to avoid waste. (ii) Size limits. To protect juvenile fish; to protect and rebuild overfished species; to enhance the quality of the recreational fishing experience. (iii) Season duration restrictions. To spread the available catch over a large number of anglers; to protect and re build overfished species; to avoid waste; to enhance the quality of the recreational fishing experience. (3) All fisheries, all gear types—(i) Depth-based management measures. Depth-based management measures, particularly closed areas known as Groundfish Conservation Areas, defined in § 660.11, include RCAs, BRAs, and BACs, and may be implemented in any fishery sector that takes groundfish di rectly or incidentally. Depth-based management measures are set using specific boundary lines that approxi mate depth contours with latitude/lon gitude waypoints found at §§ 660.70 through 660.74 and 660.76. Depth-based management measures and closed areas may be used for the following conserva tion objectives: To protect and rebuild overfished stocks; to prevent the over fishing of any groundfish species by minimizing the direct or incidental catch of that species; or to minimize the incidental harvest of any protected or prohibited species taken in the groundfish fishery. Depth-based man agement measures and closed areas may be used for the following economic objectives: To extend the fishing sea son; for the commercial fisheries, to minimize disruption of traditional fish ing and marketing patterns; for the recreational fisheries, to spread the available catch over a large number of anglers; to discourage target fishing while allowing small incidental catches to be landed; and to allow small fish eries to operate outside the normal season. (A) Rockfish Conservation Areas. RCAs, as defined at sect; 660.11, may be modified as routine action for vessels using trawl gear (off Washington), non trawl gear (coastwide), or recreational gear (coastwide) consistent with the purposes described in this paragraph (c)(3)(i). (B) Bycatch Reduction Areas. BRAs may be implemented through auto matic action in the Pacific whiting fishery consistent with paragraph (d)(1) of this section. BRAs may be imple mented as routine management meas ures for vessels using midwater ground fish trawl gear consistent with the pur poses described in this paragraph (c)(3)(i). (C) Block Area Closures.

VI (10–1–22 Edition) § 660.60 vessels using midwater trawl gear, con sistent with the purposes described in this paragraph (c)(3)(i). (ii) Non-tribal deductions from the ACL. Changes to the non-tribal amounts de ducted from the TAC, ACLs, or ACT when specified, described at § 660.55(b)(2) through (4) and specified in the footnotes to Tables 1a through 1c, and 2a through 2c, to subpart C, have been designated as routine to make fish that would otherwise go unharvested available to other fish eries during the fishing year. Adjust ments may be made to provide addi tional harvest opportunities in ground fish fisheries when catch in scientific research activities, non-groundfish fisheries, and EFPs are lower than the amounts that were initially deducted off the TAC, ACL, or ACT when speci fied, during the biennial specifications or to allocate yield from the deduction to account for unforeseen catch events to groundfish fisheries. When recom mending adjustments to the non-tribal deductions, the Council shall consider the allocation framework criteria out lined in the PCGFMP and the objec tives to maintain or extend fishing and marketing opportunities taking into account the best available fishery in formation on sector needs. (4) Inseason action for canary rockfish, yelloweye rockfish, and black rockfish in California State-Specific Federal Harvest Limits outside of a Council meeting. The Regional Administrator, NMFS West Coast Region, after consultation with the Chairman of the Pacific Fishery Management Council and the Fishery Director of the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, or their designees, is authorized to modify the following designated routine management meas ures for canary rockfish, yelloweye rockfish, and black rockfish off the coast of California. For black rockfish in commercial fisheries trip landing and frequency limits; and depth based management measures. For black, ca nary, and yelloweye rockfish in rec reational fisheries bag limits; time/ area closures; depth based manage ment. Any modifications may be made only after NMFS has determined that a California state-specific federal harvest limit for canary rockfish, yelloweye rockfish, or black rockfish, is attained or projected to be attained prior to the first day of the next Council meeting. Any modifications may only be used to restrict catch of canary rockfish, yelloweye rockfish, or black rockfish off the coast of California. (d) Automatic actions. The NMFS Re gional Administrator or designee will initiate automatic management ac tions without prior public notice, op portunity to comment, or a Council meeting. These actions are nondis cretionary, and the impacts must have been taken into account prior to the action. Unless otherwise stated, a sin gle notice will be published in the FED ERAL REGISTER making the action ef fective if good cause exists under the APA to waive notice and comment. (1) Automatic actions will be initi ated in the following circumstances: (i) Close the MS or C/P sector when that sector’s Pacific whiting allocation is reached, or is projected to be reached. The MS sector non-coop fish ery will be closed by automatic action when the Pacific whiting or non-whit ing allocation to the non-coop fishery has been reached or is projected to be reached. (ii) Close one or both MS and C/P sec tors when a non-whiting groundfish species with allocations is reached or projected to be reached. (iii) Reapportion the unused portion of the tribal allocation of Pacific whit ing to the MS sector, C/P sector, and Shorebased IFQ sector.

All trawl fisheries (whiting sector and non whiting trawl fisheries). 19,500 fish in the whiting and non-whiting sector. (A) Consistent with § 660.60(i)(2), each component of the whiting sector (Pa cific whiting IFQ fishery, MS Coop Pro gram and C/P Coop Program) will be closed when Chinook salmon bycatch exceeds 11,000 Chinook salmon if a rou tine management measure specified at § 660.60(c) has not been implemented as described in § 660.60(i)(2) for that indi vidual component of the whiting sec tor. (B) Consistent with § 660.60(i)(2), the Chinook salmon closure at 11,000 fish does not apply to those whiting sector vessels that are parties to an approved Salmon Mitigation Plan, as specified at § 660.113(e), unless the non-whiting sector has caught the entire 3,500 Chi nook salmon bycatch reserve. (v) Close all groundfish fisheries, in cluding Pacific Coast treaty Indian fisheries, if Chinook salmon bycatch in the groundfish fishery exceeds 20,000 fish.

Groundfish species harvested in the territorial sea (0–3 nm) will be counted toward the catch limitations in Tables 1a through 2d of this subpart, and those specified in sub parts D through G, including Tables 1 (North) and 1 (South) of subpart D, Ta bles 2 (North) and 2 (South) of subpart E, Tables 3 (North) and 3 (South) of subpart F. (h) Fishery restrictions—(1) Commercial trip limits and recreational bag and boat limits. Commercial trip limits and rec reational bag and boat limits defined in Tables 1a through 2d of this subpart, and those specified in subparts D through G of this part, including Ta bles 1 (North) and 1 (South) of subpart D, Tables 2 (North) and 2 (South) of subpart E, Tables 3 (North) and 3 (South) of subpart F must not be ex ceeded. (2) Landing. As stated at § 660.11 (in the definition of ‘‘Land or landing’’), once the offloading of any species be gins, all fish aboard the vessel are counted as part of the landing and must be reported as such. All fish from a landing must be removed from the vessel before a new fishing trip begins, except for processing vessels fishing in the catcher/processor or mothership sectors of the Pacific whiting fishery. Transfer of fish at sea is prohibited under § 660.12, unless a vessel is partici pating in the primary whiting fishery as part of the mothership or catcher/ processor sectors, as described at § 660.131(a). Catcher vessels in the mothership sector must transfer all catch from a haul to the same vessel registered to an MS permit prior to the gear being set for a subsequent haul. Catch may not be transferred to a ten der vessel. (3) Fishing ahead. Unless the fishery is closed, a vessel that has landed its cumulative or daily limit may con tinue to fish on the limit for the next legal period, so long as no fish (includ ing, but not limited to, groundfish with no trip limits, shrimp, prawns, or other nongroundfish species or shellfish) are landed (offloaded) until the next legal period. Fishing ahead is not allowed during or before a closed period. (4) Weights and percentages. All weights are round weights or round weight equivalents unless otherwise specified. Percentages are based on round weights, and, unless otherwise specified, apply only to legal fish on board. (5) Size limits, length measurement, and weight conversions—(i) Length measure ment. Unless otherwise specified, size limits in the commercial and rec reational groundfish fisheries apply to the ‘‘total length,’’ which is the long est measurement of the fish without mutilation of the fish or the use of force to extend the length of the fish. No fish with a size limit may be re tained if it is in such condition that its length has been extended or cannot be determined by these methods. For con versions not listed here, contact the state where the fish will be landed. Washington state regulations require all fish with a size limit landed into Washington to be landed with the head on. (A) Whole fish. For a whole fish, total length is measured from the tip of the snout (mouth closed) to the tip of the tail in a natural, relaxed position. (B) ‘‘Headed’’ fish. For a fish with the head removed (‘‘headed’’), the length is measured from the origin of the first dorsal fin (where the front dorsal fin meets the dorsal surface of the body closest to the head) to the tip of the upper lobe of the tail; the dorsal fin and tail must be left intact. (C) Filets. A filet is the flesh from one side of a fish extending from the head to the tail, which has been removed from the body (head, tail, and back bone) in a single continuous piece. Filet lengths may be subject to size limits for some groundfish taken in the recreational fishery off California (see subpart G of this part). A filet is meas ured along the length of the longest part of the filet in a relaxed position; stretching or otherwise manipulating the filet to increase its length is not permitted. (ii) Weight conversions and size limits. To determine the round weight, mul tiply the processed weight times the conversion factor.

(A) Limited entry fixed gear or open access fisheries. The weight limit con version factor established by the state where the fish is or will be landed will be used to convert the processed weight to round weight for purposes of apply ing the trip limit or other allocation. Weight conversions provided herein are those conversions currently in use by the States of Washington, Oregon, and California and may be subject to change by those states. Fishery par ticipants should contact fishery en forcement officials in the state where the fish will be landed to determine that state’s official conversion factor. (1) Sablefish. The following conver sion applies to both the limited entry fixed gear and open access fisheries when trip limits are in effect for those fisheries. For headed and gutted (evis cerated) sablefish the weight conver sion factor is 1.6 (multiply the headed and gutted weight by 1.6 to determine the round weight). (2) Lingcod. The following conver sions apply in both limited entry fixed gear and open access fisheries. (i) North of 42° N. lat., for lingcod with the head removed, the minimum size limit is 18 inches (46 cm), which corresponds to 22 inches (56 cm) total length for whole fish. (ii) South of 42° N. lat., for lingcod with the head removed, the minimum size limit is 19.5 inches (49.5 cm), which corresponds to 24 inches (61 cm) total length for whole fish. (iii) The weight conversion factor for headed and gutted lingcod is 1.5. The conversion factor for lingcod that has only been gutted with the head on is 1.1. (B) Shorebased IFQ Program. For ves sels landing sorted catch, the weight conversions for purposes of applying QP and size limits are provided in para graphs (h)(5)(ii)(B)(2)(i) through (iii) of this section. (1) Sablefish. The weight conversion factor for headed and gutted (evis cerated) sablefish is 1.6. (2) Lingcod. The following conver sions and size limits apply: (i) The minimum size limit for lingcod North of 42° N. lat. is 22 inches (56 cm) total length for whole fish, which corresponds to 18 inches (46 cm) with the head removed. (ii) The minimum size limit for lingcod South of 42° N. lat. is 24 inches (61 cm) total length for whole fish, which corresponds to 19.5 inches (49.5 cm) with the head removed. (iii) The weight conversion factor for headed and gutted (eviscerated) lingcod is 1.5; for lingcod that has only been gutted with the head on, the weight conversion factor is 1.1. (3) Pacific whiting. For headed and gutted Pacific whiting (head removed just in front of the collar bone and viscera removed,) the weight conver sion factor is 1.56; and for headed and gutted Pacific whiting with the tail re moved the weight conversion factor is 2.0. (4) Rockfish (including thornyheads), except POP. For headed and gutted (eviscerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.75; for headed and gutted, western cut (head removed just in front of the collar bone and viscera re moved,) the weight conversion factor is 1.66; for headed and gutted, eastern cut (head removed just behind the collar bone and viscera removed,) the weight conversion factor is 2.0. (5) Pacific ocean perch (POP). For headed and gutted (eviscerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.6. (6) Pacific cod. For headed and gutted (eviscerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.58. (7) Dover sole, English sole, and ‘‘other flatfish’’. For headed and gutted (evis cerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.53. (8) Petrale sole. For headed and gutted (eviscerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.51. (9) Arrowtooth flounder. For headed and gutted (eviscerated), the weight conversion factor is 1.35. (10) Starry flounder.

(7) Crossover provisions. Crossover pro visions apply to three activities: Fish ing on different sides of a management line, fishing in both the limited entry and open access fisheries, or fishing in both the Shorebased IFQ Program and the limited entry fixed gear fishery. Fishery-specific crossover provisions can be found in subparts D through F of this part. (i) Fishing in management areas with different trip limits. Trip limits for a species or a species group may differ in different management areas along the coast. The following crossover provi sions apply to vessels fishing in dif ferent geographical areas that have dif ferent cumulative or ‘‘per trip’’ trip limits for the same species or species group, with the following exceptions. Such crossover provisions do not apply to: IFQ species (defined at § 660.140(c), subpart D) for vessels that are declared into the Shorebased IFQ Program (see § 660.13(d)(4)(iv)(A), for valid Shorebased IFQ Program declarations); species that are subject only to daily trip limits; or to trip limits for black rockfish off Washington, as described at §§ 660.230(e) and 660.330(e). (A) Going from a more restrictive to a more liberal area. If a vessel takes and retains any groundfish species or spe cies group of groundfish in an area where a more restrictive trip limit ap plies before fishing in an area where a more liberal trip limit (or no trip limit) applies, then that vessel is sub ject to the more restrictive trip limit for the entire period to which that trip limit applies, no matter where the fish are taken and retained, possessed, or landed. (B) Going from a more liberal to a more restrictive area. If a vessel takes and re tains a groundfish species or species group in an area where a higher trip limit or no trip limit applies, and takes and retains, possesses or lands the same species or species group in an area where a more restrictive trip limit applies, that vessel is subject to the more restrictive trip limit for the entire period to which that trip limit applies, no matter where the fish are taken and retained, possessed, or land ed. (C) Fishing in two different areas where a species or species group is managed with different types of trip limits. During the fishing year, NMFS may implement management measures for a species or species group that set different types of trip limits (for example, per trip limits versus cumulative trip limits) for dif ferent areas. If a vessel fishes for a spe cies or species group that is managed with different types of trip limits in two different areas within the same cu mulative limit period, then that vessel is subject to the most restrictive over all cumulative limit for that species, regardless of where fishing occurs. (D) Minor rockfish. Several rockfish species are designated with species-spe cific limits on one side of the 40°10′ N. lat. management line, and are included as part of a minor rockfish complex on the other side of the line. A vessel that takes and retains fish from a minor rockfish complex (nearshore, shelf, or slope) on both sides of a management line during a single cumulative limit period is subject to the more restric tive cumulative limit for that minor rockfish complex during that period. (1) If a vessel takes and retains minor slope rockfish north of 40°10′ N. lat., that vessel is also permitted to take and retain, possess or land splitnose rockfish up to its cumulative limit south of 40°10′ N. lat., even if splitnose rockfish were a part of the landings from minor slope rockfish taken and retained north of 40°10′ N. lat. (2) If a vessel takes and retains minor slope rockfish south of 40°10′ N. lat., that vessel is also permitted to take and retain, possess or land POP up to its cumulative limit north of 40°10′ N. lat., even if POP were a part of the landings from minor slope rockfish taken and retained south of 40°10′ N. lat. (ii) Fishing in both limited entry and open access fisheries— (A) Fishing in limited entry and open access fisheries with different trip limits. Open access trip limits apply to any fishing conducted with open access gear, even if the vessel has a valid lim ited entry permit with an endorsement for another type of gear.

A vessel that fishes in both the open access and limited entry fisheries is not entitled to two separate trip limits for the same species. If a vessel has a limited entry permit registered to it at any time dur ing the trip limit period and uses open access gear, but the open access limit is smaller than the limited entry limit, the open access limit may not be ex ceeded and counts toward the limited entry limit. If a vessel has a limited entry permit registered to it at any time during the trip limit period and uses open access gear, but the open ac cess limit is larger than the limited entry limit, the smaller limited entry limit applies, even if taken entirely with open access gear. (B) Limited entry permit restrictions for vessels fishing in the open access fishery— (1) Vessel registered to a limited entry trawl permit. To fish with open access gear, defined at § 660.11, a vessel reg istered to a limited entry trawl permit must make the appropriate fishery dec laration, as specified at § 660.13(d)(4)(iv)(A). In addition, a vessel registered to a limited entry trawl per mit must remove the permit from their vessel, as specified at § 660.25(b)(4)(vi), unless the vessel will be fishing in the open access fishery under one of the following declarations specified at § 660.13(d): (i) Non-groundfish trawl gear for pink shrimp, (ii) Non-groundfish trawl gear for ridgeback prawn, (iii) Non-groundfish trawl gear for California halibut, (iv) Non-groundfish trawl gear for sea cucumber, (v) Open access Dungeness crab pot/ trap gear, (vi) Open access HMS line gear, (vii) Open access salmon troll gear, (viii) Open access Coastal Pelagic Species net gear. (2) Vessel registered to a limited entry fixed gear permit(s). To fish with open access gear, defined at § 660.11, subpart C, a vessel registered to a limit entry fixed gear permit must make the ap propriate open access declaration, as specified at § 660.13(d)(4)(iv)(A). Vessels registered to a sablefish-endorsed per mit(s) fishing in the sablefish primary season (described at § 660.231, subpart E) may only fish with the gear(s) en dorsed on their sablefish-endorsed per mit(s) against those limits. (3) Vessel jointly registered to more than one limited entry permit. Vessels jointly registered (under the provisions at § 660.25(b)(4)(iv)(B)) may fish with open access gear (defined at § 660.11) if they meet the requirements of both para graphs (h)(7)(ii)(B)(1) and (2) of this sec tion. (iii) Fishing in both the Shorebased IFQ Program and the limited entry fixed gear fishery for vessels that are jointly reg istered. (A) Fishing in the Shorebased IFQ Pro gram and limited entry fixed gear fishery with different trip limits. If a vessel fishes in both the Shorebased IFQ Pro gram and the limited entry fixed gear fishery during a cumulative limit pe riod, they are subject to the most re strictive trip limits for non-IFQ spe cies. (B) Fishing in the Shorebased IFQ Pro gram and the limited entry fixed gear sa blefish primary fishery with different trip limits. If a vessel is jointly registered and one or more of the limited entry permits is sablefish endorsed, any sa blefish landings made by a vessel de clared into the limited entry fixed gear fishery after the start of the sablefish primary fishery count towards the tier limit(s), per regulations at § 660.232(a)(2), subpart E. Any sablefish landings made by a vessel declared into the Shorebased IFQ Program must be covered by quota pounds, per regula tions at § 660.112(b), subpart D, and will not count towards the tier limit(s). (i) Salmon bycatch management. Salm on bycatch is managed through routine management measures, salmon by catch guidelines and a Chinook salmon bycatch reserve, and fisheries closures. For purposes of salmon bycatch man agement, the groundfish fishery is di vided into the whiting sector and non whiting sector and includes bycatch of Chinook salmon and coho salmon from both non-tribal fisheries and Pacific Coast treaty Indian fisheries. The non whiting sector includes the Pacific Coast treaty Indian vessels that target VerDate Sep<11>2014 08:57 Jan 13, 2023 Jkt 256248 PO 00000 Frm 00087 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8010 Q:\50\50V13.TXT PC31sf ra tti ni o n LA P JZ K W 1R 2 w ith $ $ JO B 78 50 CFR Ch.

The whiting sector is the Pacific whiting fishery, as defined in § 660.111, and in cludes the Pacific Coast treaty Indian vessels that target whiting, as well as non-tribal vessels that target whiting participating in the C/P Coop Program, the MS Coop Program, and the Pacific whiting IFQ fishery. (1) Routine management measures. Routine management measures speci fied at § 660.60(c) may be implemented to minimize Chinook salmon and/or coho salmon bycatch in the groundfish fishery. These measures may include BRAs, BACs, or a selective flatfish trawl gear requirement. These meas ures would not apply to vessels fishing in Pacific Coast treaty Indian fisheries. (i) Non-whiting sector. Routine man agement measures to manage salmon bycatch in the non-whiting sector in clude: (A) A BAC for bottom trawl or midwater trawl as specified at § 660.60(c)(3)(i). (B) A BRA for midwater trawl as specified at § 660.60(c)(3)(i). (C) A selective flatfish trawl gear re quirement for bottom trawl. (ii) Whiting sector. Routine manage ment measures to manage salmon by catch in the whiting sector include: (A) A BAC as specified at § 660.60(c)(3)(i). (B) A BRA as specified at § 660.60(c)(3)(i). (2) Chinook salmon bycatch guidelines and Chinook salmon bycatch reserve. The Chinook salmon bycatch guideline for the non-whiting sector is 5,500 fish. The Chinook salmon bycatch guideline for the whiting sector is 11,000 fish. If a sector exceeds its Chinook salmon by catch guideline, it may access a re serve of 3,500 Chinook salmon reserve provided action has been taken to min imize Chinook salmon bycatch as de scribed in paragraph (i)(2)(i) or (ii) of this section. For bycatch accounting purposes, all Chinook salmon bycatch from the groundfish fishery, including both non-tribal and Pacific Coast trea ty Indian fisheries, counts towards the applicable whiting or non-whiting sec tor bycatch guideline and the reserve. (i) Reserve access for the non-whiting sector. The non-whiting sector may only access the reserve if a measure de scribed in paragraph (i)(1)(i) of this sec tion has been implemented. (ii) Reserve access for the whiting sec tor. Each component of the whiting sec tor (Pacific whiting IFQ fishery, MS Coop Program and C/P Coop Program) may only access the reserve if a meas ure described in paragraph (i)(1)(ii) of this section has been implemented for that component of the whiting fishery. If a measure described in paragraph (i)(1)(ii) of this section has not been implemented for that component of the whiting fishery, vessels within that component that are parties to an ap proved Salmon Mitigation Plan (SMP), as specified at § 660.113(e), may access the reserve. (3) Fisheries closures. Groundfish fish eries may be closed through automatic action at § 660.60(d)(1)(iv) and (v).

Essential fish habitat (EFH) is de fined as those waters and substrate necessary to fish for spawning, breed ing, feeding or growth to maturity (16 U.S.C. 1802 (10)). EFH for Pacific Coast Groundfish includes all waters and sub strate within areas with a depth less than or equal to 3,500 m (1,914 fm) shoreward to the mean higher high water level or the upriver extent of saltwater intrusion (defined as up stream and landward to where ocean derived salts measure less than 0.5 parts per thousand during the period of average annual low flow). Seamounts in depths greater than 3,500 m (1,914 fm) are also included due to their eco logical importance to groundfish. Geo graphically, EFH for Pacific Coast groundfish includes both a large band of marine waters that extends from the Northern edge of the EEZ at the U.S. border with Canada to the Southern edge of the EEZ at the U.S. border with Mexico, and inland within bays and es tuaries. The seaward extent of EFH is consistent with the westward edge of the EEZ for areas approximately north of Cape Mendocino. Approximately south of Cape Mendocino, the 3500 m depth contour and EFH is substantially shoreward of the seaward boundary of the EEZ. There are also numerous dis crete areas seaward of the main 3500 m depth contour where the ocean floor rises to depths less than 3500 m and therefore are also EFH.
