Commercial Closure for Snowy 

Grouper in the South Atlantic 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Temporary rule; closure. 

SUMMARY: NMFS implements an 

accountability measure (AM) for the 

commercial harvest of snowy grouper in 

South Atlantic Federal waters. NMFS 

projects commercial landings of snowy 

grouper will reach the commercial quota 

for the July through December season. 

Therefore, NMFS closes Federal waters 

in the South Atlantic for the commercial 

harvest of snowy grouper to protect the 

resource. 

DATES: This temporary rule is effective 

from September 29, 2024, through 

December 31, 2024.

Devictor, NMFS Southeast Regional 

Office, phone: 727–204–5518, email:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

snapper-grouper fishery of the South 

Atlantic includes snowy grouper and is 

managed under the Fishery 

Management Plan for the SnapperGrouper Fishery of the South Atlantic 

Region (FMP). The FMP was prepared 

by the South Atlantic Fishery 

Management Council and NMFS, and is 

implemented by NMFS under the 

authority of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) by 

regulations at 50 CFR part 622. All 

weights described in this temporary rule 

are in gutted weight. 

The commercial annual catch limit 

(ACL) for snowy grouper in 2024 is 

106,174 pounds (lb) or 48,160 kilograms 

(kg). The commercial ACL is divided 

into two commercial quotas, with a 

separate quota for each 6-month fishing 

season. Seventy percent of the 

commercial ACL is allocated for the 

January through June commercial 

fishing season and that quota is 74,322 

lb (33,712 kg) for 2024. The remaining 

30 percent of the commercial ACL for 

the July through December fishing 

season is a quota of 31,852 lb (14,448 

kg) for 2024 [50 CFR 622.190(a)(1)(i)(B) 

and (ii)(B)]. Any commercial quota 

remaining from the first season is added 

to the commercial quota in second 

season, but any commercial quota 

remaining from the second season is not 

carried forward into the next fishing 

year. The January through June quota 

was projected to be reached on June 4, 

2024, and commercial harvest was 

closed (89 FR 47871, June 4, 2024). 

Subsequently, updated commercial 

harvest information showed that 8,035 

lb (3,645 kg) of that quota was not 

harvested, and it was added to the 2024 

commercial quota for the July through 

December season. 

Under 50 CFR 622.193(b)(1), NMFS is 

required to close the commercial sector 

for snowy grouper when the commercial 

quota specified in 50 CFR 622.190(a)(1) 

is reached or is projected to be reached. 

NMFS projects that commercial 

landings of snowy grouper will reach 

the commercial quota for the 2024 July
