34256 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 108 / Monday, June 6, 2022 / Notices 

recent years, 2021 was the first year 

since 1995 that the mature female red 

king crab abundance fell below the 

established threshold in the State of 

Alaska’s harvest strategy to hold a 

directed fishery. As a result, the 

directed BBRKC fishery was closed for 

the 2021/22 season. To better 

understand the decline of BBRKC and 

scope potential management actions 

that are within the Council’s authority, 

the Council has reviewed an analysis of 

trawl gear crab prohibited species catch 

limits (February 2021) and an 

emergency rule analysis to expand the 

Red King Crab Savings Area (RKCSA) in 

the Bering Sea (December 2021). In 

April 2022, the Council reviewed a 

discussion paper addressing an array of 

topics including red king crab biology, 

existing management and stock 

assessment boundaries, seafloor contact 

by pelagic trawl gear, and flexible 

spatial management tools used in other 

fisheries. At its April 2022 meeting, the 

Council both initiated this RFI and 

tasked Council and NMFS staff to 

produce an expanded discussion paper 

that is fully described in the April 9, 

2022, motion linked below. That paper 

will consider annual or seasonal gear 

closures to the RKCSA, provide data on 

BBRKC mortality, identify information 

that would be needed to implement 

dynamic time/area closures that could 

protect mature female BBRKC, assess 

available information on groundfish 

predation on BBRKC, and analyze the 

impacts of limiting groundfish pot gear 

activity. 

Request for Information 

This notice requests comment on the 

motion put forward by the Council on 

April 9, 2022, which can be viewed at 

https://tinyurl.com/D1BBRKCcouncil

motion4-9-22. In particular, the Council 

wishes to hear from Bering Sea 

commercial fishery sectors that may 

cause BBRKC mortality, including both 

directed crab fishing and directed 

groundfish fishing where red king crab 

are encountered. See ADDRESSES for 

information on how to submit 

comments. 

The scope of public comments is not 

limited, but questions that may be 

considered include: 

1. Voluntary measures for 

implementation in 2023 and beyond to 

avoid BBRKC and reduce crab mortality 

in the non-directed fisheries; 

2. Measures in the directed crab 

fishery to reduce discard mortality of 

BBRKC; 

3. Description of research that would 

inform development of more flexible 

and effective spatial management 

measures; gear modifications to reduce 

impacts on the BBRKC stock, or to 

evaluate unobserved mortality in the 

trawl sector. 

The Council will review comments 

submitted in response to this request for 

information at the October 2022 Council 

meeting, which is scheduled to begin on 

October 3, 2022. The schedule and 

agenda will be available prior to that 

meeting. All responses to this request 

for information will be posted and 

publicly available on the Council 

agenda for the October 2022 meeting.
