NEFMC EFH Desigations
NEFMC EFH Desigations developed as part of Omnibus Essential Fish Habitat Amendment 2 Amendment 14 to the Northeast Multispecies FMP Amendment 14 to the Atlantic Sea Scallop FMP Amendment 4 to the Monkfish FMP Amendment 3 to the Atlantic Herring FMP Amendment 2 to the Red Crab FMP Amendment 2 to the Skate FMP Amendment 3 to the Atlantic Salmon FMP New England Fishery Management Council 50 Water Street, Mill 2 Newburyport, MA 01950 (978) 465-0492 tel. Essential Fish Habitat or EFH is define as those waters necessary for spawning, breeding, feeding, and growth to maturity. Regional Fishery Management Councils are required to desginate EFH per the 1996 reauthorization of the Magnuson Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Regulatory guidance about EFH designations and EFH consultations was published in 2002 by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service (Federal Register, Vol. 67, No. 12, p 2343-2383). This guidance recommends description and identification of EFH by species and lifestage, based on the best available sources of information. Per the guidance, both text descriptions of essential habitats as well as spatial depictions of the extent of EFH should be developed. The New England Fishery Management Council developed its current EFH designations via Omnibus Habitat Amendment 2 (OHA2). OHA2 represented the first update to the NEFMC’s original EFH designations, developed in 1999 or shortly thereafter. Development of OHA2 began in 2004, and the final regulations were implemented on April 9, 2018. The EFH designations were the primary focus of the first phase of work on the amendment, from 2004- 2007, but adjustments to the desginations were made throughout the process, up until final Council action in April and June of 2016. -

Printers to the State,l • • To the Governor and Executive Council of the State of J.Uaine : ON receiving the appointment of Agent to superintend and manage the sale and settlement of the Public Land, I was immediately called on to discharge the special duties of the office, required by the Resolve of the Legislature of the 24th of January last, relating to trespassers on the public lands. Much of my time and attention has since been engrossed in carrying into effect the intentions of the Legislature expressed in that, and other Resolves, on the same subject. By the annual reports of my predecessors it will be seen that trespasses have been for a series of years committed, on what, from the groundless claim of Great Britain, is called the disputed territory, by British subjects of the Province of New Brunswick and their lawless associates on this side the boundary; and that the timber has been taken by them to market in that Province, notwithstanding the warnings and efforts of the Land Agent of Maine, and of the British authorities. -
