SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Council has developed proposed actions 

specified in Draft Amendment 15 to the 

FMP for Coastal Migratory Pelagic 

Resources in the Atlantic and Gulf of 

Mexico. Draft Amendment 15 includes 

alternatives to limit entry and change 

the fishing year in the king mackerel 

fishery. Management alternatives 

include: a ‘‘no action’’ alternative that 

would allow the moratorium to expire; 

an extension of the existing moratorium 

for a designated time frame; and the 

establishment of some form of license 

limitation system. In terms of the fishing 

year (for king mackerel only), options 

include: beginning the fishing year on 

April 1 of each year (status quo); 

changing the beginning of the fishing 

year to January 1 of each year; and other 

possible dates.

These alternatives are described in the 

Council’s public hearing document
