Fisheries of the Caribbean, Gulf of 

Mexico, and South Atlantic; Reef Fish 

Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico; 

Amendment 34 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: NMFS issues this final rule to 

implement management measures 

described in Amendment 34 to the 

Fishery Management Plan for the Reef 

Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico 

(FMP) prepared by the Gulf of Mexico 

Fishery Management Council (Council). 

This rule removes the income 

qualification requirements for renewal 

of Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) commercial reef 

fish permits and increases the maximum 

crew size to four for dual-permitted 

vessels (i.e. vessels that possess both a 

charter vessel/headboat permit for Gulf 

reef fish and a commercial vessel permit 

for Gulf reef fish) that are fishing 

commercially. The intent of this rule is 

to remove permit requirements that 

NMFS views as no longer applicable to 

current commercial fishing practices 

and to improve safety-at-sea in the Gulf 

reef fish fishery. 

DATES: This rule is effective November 

19, 2012. 

ADDRESSES: Electronic copies of 

Amendment 34, which includes an 

environmental assessment and a 

regulatory impact review, may be 

obtained from the Southeast Regional 

Office Web site at http:// 

sero.nmfs.noaa.gov/sf/ 

GrouperSnapperandReefFish.htm. 

Comments regarding the burden-hour 

estimates or other aspects of the 

collection-of-information requirements 

contained in this final rule may be 

submitted in writing to Anik Clemens, 

Southeast Regional Office, NMFS, 263 

13th Avenue South, St. Petersburg, FL 

33701; and to OMB, by email at OIRA 

Submission@omb.eop.gov, or by fax to

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Cynthia Meyer, Southeast Regional 

Office, NMFS, telephone 727–824–5305; 

email: Cynthia.Meyer@noaa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS and 

the Council manage the Gulf reef fish 

fishery under the FMP. The Council 

prepared the FMP and NMFS 

implements the FMP under the 

authority of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act (Magunson-Stevens Act) by 

regulations at 50 CFR part 622. 

On July 10, 2012, NMFS published a 

notice of availability for Amendment 34 

and requested public comment (77 FR 

40561). NMFS published a proposed 

rule for Amendment 34 on July 18, 

2012, and requested public comment 

(77 FR 42251). The purpose and 

rationale for the actions contained in 

this final rule can be found in the 

proposed rule and are not repeated here. 

Management measures implemented 

through this final rule eliminate the 

income qualification requirements for 

renewal of commercial Gulf reef fish 

permits and increase the maximum 

crew size from three to four for dualpermitted vessels.
