Bycatch Reduction Devices 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Commerce. 

ACTION: Final rule. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

framework procedures for adjusting 

management measures of the Fishery 

Management Plan for the Shrimp 

Fishery of the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf 

FMP) and the Fishery Management Plan 

for the Shrimp Fishery of the South 

Atlantic region (South Atlantic FMP) 

NMFS provisionally recertifies two 

bycatch reduction devices (BRDs) and 

revises the construction and installation 

requirements of one of these BRD 

designs in the southeastern shrimp 

fishery. The intended effect of this rule 

is to improve bycatch reduction in the 

shrimp fishery and better meet the 

requirements of National Standard 9.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

fishery for shrimp in the exclusive 

economic zone (EEZ) of the Gulf is 

managed under the FMP prepared by 

the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management 

Council. The fishery for shrimp in the 

EEZ of the South Atlantic is managed 

under the FMP prepared by the South 

Atlantic Fishery Management Council. 

The FMPs are implemented under the 

authority of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) by 

regulations at 50 CFR part 622. 

Background 

Regulations implementing 

Amendment 2 to the South Atlantic 

Shrimp FMP (73 FR 18536, April 16, 

1997) established BRD requirements in 

the South Atlantic EEZ. The rule 

established a certification criterion, 

descriptions of BRD designs and 

configurations allowed for use in the 

South Atlantic shrimp fishery, as well 

as procedures to develop and test new 

BRDs for certification. 

Regulations implementing 

Amendment 9 to the Gulf Shrimp FMP 

were published April 14, 1998 (63 FR 

18139), and established a requirement, 

with limited exceptions, for the use of 

certified BRDs in shrimp trawls towed 

in the Gulf EEZ shoreward of the 100- 

fm (183-m) depth contour west of 85° 

30′ W. longitude (western Gulf), the 

approximate longitude of Cape San Blas, 

FL. The rule established descriptions of 

BRD designs and configurations allowed 

for use in the western Gulf shrimp 

fishery.
