'Vessel Landings' include the number oflandings by participating vessels reported by IFQ regulatory area. Each such landing may include harvests from more than one IFQ Permit Holder. Since there may be more than one area represented in any particular offload, the sum of vessel landings will necessarily be greater than the 'Total number of vessel offloads'. 4. 'Vessel Offload' is the removal of fish from a harvesting vessel to (or by) a specific Registered Buyer on a particular date/time. 5. Due to over- or underharvest ofTAC and/or rounding, percentages may not total to 100%. 6. Data are derived from initial data entry procedures and are preliminary. Future review and editing may result in minor changes. 7. Asterisks denote confidential data. 8. Landings in areas 4C and 4D have been combined, since 4C allocation may be fished in 4C or 4D. Harvest is debited from the account for the reported harvest area, but the combination in this report is a better representation of activity in the 4C/4D areas.

Notice of a fishery management action

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is prohibiting directed fishing for Pacific cod by catcher vessels equal to or greater than 60 feet (18.3 meters (m)) length overall (LOA) using hook-and-line gear in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area (BSAI), effective 12 noon, Alaska local time, August 23, 2019, according to James W. Balsiger, Administrator, Alaska Region, NMFS.

This action is necessary to prevent exceeding the 2019 Pacific cod total allowable catch allocated to catcher vessels equal to or greater than 60 feet (18.3 m) LOA using hook-and-line gear in the BSAI and is issued pursuant to 50 CFR 679.20(d)(1 )(iii).

While this closure is effective the maximum retainable amounts at 50 CFR 679.20(e) and (f) apply at any time during a trip.
