offshore line to address the 

concentration of fishing effort in the 

inshore Gulf of Maine. Next, the 

Scientific and Statistical Committee will 

report on its recommendations for 

overfishing limits and acceptable 

biological catch recommendations for 

Gulf of Maine cod, pollock, Gulf of 

Maine winter flounder, and Georges 

Bank winter flounder. Following a 

lunch break, the rest of the day will be 

spent reviewing and taking final action 

on Framework Adjustment 53 to the 

Groundfish FMP. The framework 

addresses three major topics: (1) Status 

changes (Gulf of Maine (GOM) haddock) 

and specifications for several groundfish 

stocks (Gulf of Maine cod and haddock; 

Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank winter 

flounder; pollock; and Georges Bank 

yellowtail flounder); (2) windowpane 

flounder sub-annual catch limit (ACLs) 

for sectors, common pool; and the sea 

scallop fishery; and (3) other 

management measures, including 

additional spatial protection for 

spawning Gulf of Maine cod, and 

possibly additional measures for that 

stock, a roll-over provision for fishery 

specifications, and annual catch 

entitlement carryover provisions for 

sectors.
