SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The Skate FMP was implemented in 

September 2003. The primary objectives 

of the Skate FMP are to: (1) Protect the 

overfished species of skates and 

increase their biomass to target levels 

specified in the FMP while preventing 

overfishing of the other skate species; 

and (2) collect information critical for 

improving knowledge of skate fisheries 

by species and for monitoring the status 

of skate fisheries, resources, and related 

markets, as well as the effectiveness of 

skates management approaches. The 

FMP includes reporting requirements to 

improve fishery information, 

prohibitions on overfished species, a 

trip limit for the skate wing fishery, and 

mechanisms for FMP monitoring and 

plan adjustments. Through the 

establishment of a ‘‘baseline’’ of 

management measures in other 

fisheries, the FMP recognizes the 

interactions of skates with groundfish, 

scallops, and monkfish fisheries. In 

2006, winter skate was determined to be 

overfished. Therefore, under the 

provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act, the Council must develop and 

implement a rebuilding plan for this 

resource. 

Measures Under Consideration 

The Council may consider a host of 

management measures to reduce skate 

mortality, improve reporting, cap or 

reduce landings, and/or reduce bycatch 

and discard mortality to prevent 

overfishing and rebuild overfished 

stocks. Measures that may be considered 

include, but are not limited to, a hard 

TAC for the directed skate fishery, 

annual catch limits and accountability 

measures, greater regulation of the 

fishery through days-at-sea limits, 

changes to skate possession limits, 

changes to exempted fisheries and 

closed areas, new gear regulations, and 

elimination of the baseline review 

process and proxy input controls. 

It is possible that during the scoping 

process, other issues will be raised 

related to the purpose of this 

amendment, and if appropriate, those 

issues will be considered by the Council 

as well.

Scoping Process 

All persons affected by or otherwise 

interested in skate management are 

invited to participate in determining the 

scope and significance of issues to be 

analyzed by submitting written 

comments (see ADDRESSES) and/or by 

attending one of the scoping meetings. 

Scope consists of the range of actions, 

alternatives, and impacts to be 

considered. Alternatives include the 

following: Not amending the 

management plan (taking no action); 

developing an amendment that contains 

management measures such as those 

discussed in this notice; or other 

reasonable courses of action. Impacts 

may be direct, indirect, or cumulative. 

This scoping process will also 

identify and eliminate from detailed 

analysis issues that are not relevant or 

feasible. When, after the scoping process 

is completed, the Council proceeds with 

the development of an amendment to 

the Skate FMP, the Council will prepare 

an EIS to analyze the impacts of the 

range of alternatives under 

consideration. The Council will hold 

public hearings to receive comments on 

the draft amendment and on the 

analysis of its impacts presented in the 

EIS.

scoping comments at the following 

public meetings:

Plan and Amendment 14 to the Shrimp 

Fishery Management Plan. This 

amendment contains potential

obtained by calling the Council office at 

(813) 348–1630.

the Red Snapper AP will be restricted to 

those issues specifically identified in 

the agenda and any issues arising after 

publication of this notice that require 

emergency action under Section 305(c) 

of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, provided 

the public has been notified of the 

Council’s intent to take action to 

address the emergency.
