- What it does
NMFS proposes to implement annual catch limits (ACL) and an accountability measure (AM) for the Hawaii deepwater shrimp and precious coral fisheries for each fishing year from 2026 to 2028. As a post-season AM, NMFS proposes to determine whether the average catch of any stock from the most recent 3 years exceeds an ACL and reduce the ACL for that stock for the subsequent fishing year by the amount of any overage. The proposed ACLs and AMs are unchanged from past measures implemented for the fisheries. This proposed rule supports the long- term sustainability of Hawaii deepwater shrimp and precious coral.
