The participating vessel would fish 

under the EFP along the continental 

shelf from east of Hydrographers 

Canyon west to Toms Canyon, including 

Atlantic, Block, and Hudson Canyons 

along the 60 fathom shoal (all research 

to be done in statistical areas 616, 537, 

and 526). Exact locations will be 

determined by the captain based on 

knowledge of fishery and reported 

butterfish locations. 

If approved, the applicant may 

request minor modifications and 

extensions to the EFP throughout the 

year. EFP modifications and extensions 

may be granted without further notice if 

they are deemed essential to facilitate 

completion of the proposed research 

and have minimal impacts that do not 

change the scope or impact of the 

initially approved EFP request. Any 

fishing activity conducted outside the 

scope of the exempted fishing activity 

would be prohibited.
