18324 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 58 / Tuesday, March 26, 2013 / Notices 

(Southeast Alaska) and 3A (Central Gulf 

of Alaska). This notice is necessary to 

meet the regulatory requirement to 

publish notice announcing the GHLs 

and to inform the public about the 2013 

GHLs for the guided sport fishery for 

halibut. The GHLs are benchmark 

harvest levels for participants in the 

guided sport fishery. The Area 2C GHL 

is 788,000 lb (357.4 mt); and the Area 

3A GHL is 2,734,000 lb (1,240.1 mt). 

These GHLs revise and supersede those 

published in the 2013 IPHC annual 

management measures (78 FR 16423, 

March 15, 2013). 

DATES: The GHLs are effective February 

1, 2013, through December 31, 2013. 

This period is specified by IPHC as the 

sport fishing season in all waters in and 

off Alaska.

Scheurer, (907) 586–7228. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

In 2003, NMFS implemented a final 

rule (68 FR 47256, August 8, 2003) to 

establish GHLs for Pacific halibut 

(Hippoglossus stenolepis) harvested by 

the guided sport fishery in IPHC Areas 

2C and 3A. Regulations implementing 

the GHLs have been amended twice. In 

2008, the GHL table was corrected at 50 

CFR 300.65(c)(1) (73 FR 30504, May 28, 

2008). In 2009, regulatory provisions 

were amended for NMFS’ annual 

publication of the GHL notice and to 

clarify NMFS’ authority to take action at 

any time to limit the guided sport angler 

catch to the GHL (74 FR 21194, May 6, 

2009). Regulations at § 300.65(c)(1) 

require that NMFS annually publish a 

notice in the Federal Register to 

announce the GHLs for Area 2C and 

Area 3A. 

Consistent with § 300.65(c), this 

notice announces the 2013 GHLs for the 

guided sport fishery for Pacific halibut 

in IPHC Areas 2C and 3A. Regulations 

at § 300.65(c)(1) specify the GHLs based 

on the total constant exploitation yield 

(CEY) that is established annually by the 

IPHC. The total CEYs and resulting 

GHLs were incorrect as published in the 

final rule announcing the 2013 IPHC 

annual management measures for the 

Pacific halibut fisheries (78 FR 16423, 

March 15, 2013). This notice announces 

revised total CEYs and corresponding 

GHLs for 2013. For Area 2C, the total 

CEY is 5,020,000 lb (2,277.0 mt) and the 

corresponding GHL is 788,000 lb (357.4 

mt). For Area 3A, the total CEY is 

17,070,000 lb (7,742.8 mt) and the 

corresponding GHL is 2,734,000 lb 

(1,240.1 mt). The GHLs in Areas 2C and 

3A each dropped one step from 2012 

levels. NMFS may take action at any 

time to limit the guided sport halibut 

harvest to as close to the GHL as 

practicable (50 CFR 300.65(c)(3)).
