SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On October 19, 2021, NMFS notified 

the Council that EBS snow crab status 

has been changed to overfished. The 

EBS snow crab assessment shows that 

mature male biomass (MMB) is 50,600 

metric tons (mt), which is less than the 

minimum stock size threshold (MSST) 

of 76,700 mt, therefore the stock is 

overfished. 

Total snow crab mature male biomass 

(MMB) has varied considerably since 

1990 from a high of 626.7 kilotons (kt) 

to a low of 50.6 kt in 2021. Observed 

MMB in the survey increased to 

historical highs in the 1990s but then 

declined significantly later that decade. 

The stock was declared overfished in 

1999 in response to the total mature 

biomass dropping below the 1999 

MSST. Observed MMB slowly increased 

after 1999, and the stock was declared 

rebuilt in 2011 when estimated MMB at 

mating was above B35 percent. 

However, after 2011, the stock declined 

and the observed MMB at the time of 

the survey dropped to an all-time low in 

2021. In recent years, MMB was 

increasing as a large recruitment moved 

through the size classes, but that 

recruitment event has since disappeared 

and the observed mature male biomass 

at the of the 2021 survey was 50.6 kt, 

a new all-time low. This is the first time 

a mass mortality event appears to have 

occurred for snow crab since the survey 

began and the biomass of important size 

categories of crab is at historic lows. 

Because EBS snow crab is overfished, 

the Council is working to develop a 

recommended rebuilding plan, 

consistent with section 304(e) of the 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act. 

In June 2022, the Council adopted 

draft alternatives for analysis to 

establish a rebuilding plan for EBS snow 

crab, which will be presented to the 

Council likely in December 2022, and 

available for public comment. As a 

separate but related component in 

response to the change in snow crab 

status, the Council also initiated a 

request for information on ways to 

reduce fishing-related mortality of EBS 

snow crab. This RFI is therefore seeking 

public comment on ways to reduce 

fishing-related mortality of EBS snow 

crab, and comment on this RFI is 

invited through September 23, 2022. 

Information on the Council’s tentative 

agendas for the next three meetings can 

be found at https://www.npfmc.org/ 

3meeting/ (the Three Meeting Outlook). 

Request for Information 

This notice requests public comment 

on the motion put forward by the 

Council on June 10, 2022, which can be 

viewed at https://tinyurl.com/ 

C3EBScouncilmotion6-10-22. 

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 EBS snow crab and reduce crab 

mortality in the non-directed fisheries; 

2. Measures in the directed crab 

fishery to reduce discard mortality of 

EBS snow crab; 

3. Description of research that would 

inform development of more flexible 

and effective spatial management 

measures; gear modifications to reduce 

impacts on the EBS snow crab stock, or 

to evaluate unobserved mortality in the 

trawl sector. 

The Council will review comments 

submitted in response to this request for 

information during the October and 

December 2022 Council meetings. The 

October Council meeting is scheduled to 

begin on October 3, 2022. The schedule 

and agenda for both meetings will be 

available a month prior to the meeting. 

All responses to this request for 

information will be posted and publicly 

available on the Council agenda for the 

October and December 2022 meetings. 

Public Comment 

Responses to this request are 

voluntary. Respondents need not reply 

to all questions. All responses are a part 

of the public record and will be posted
