{"abstract":"The North Pacific Fishery Management Council submitted Amendments 38 and 39 to the Fishery Management Plan for Bering Sea/ Aleutian Islands King and Tanner Crabs (FMP) to NMFS for review. If approved, Amendment 38 would establish a mechanism in the FMP to specify annual catch limits and accountability measures for each crab stock. This action is necessary to account for uncertainty in the overfishing limit and prevent overfishing. If approved, Amendment 39 would modify the snow crab rebuilding plan to define the stock as rebuilt the first year the stock biomass is above the level necessary to produce maximum sustainable yield. Amendments 38 and 39 are intended to promote the goals and objectives of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the FMP, and other applicable laws.","action":"Notice of availability of fishery management plan amendments; request for comments.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE","name":"Commerce Department","id":54,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/commerce-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/54","parent_id":null,"slug":"commerce-department"},{"raw_name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","name":"National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration","id":361,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/361","parent_id":54,"slug":"national-oceanic-and-atmospheric-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2011/05/04/2011-10798.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":679,"title":50}],"citation":"76 FR 25295","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2011-07-05","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Written comments on the amendment must be received on or before 5 p.m., Alaska local time, on July 5, 2011.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":[],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2011-10798","effective_on":null,"end_page":25297,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2011/05/04/2011-10798.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2011/05/04/2011-10798/fisheries-of-the-exclusive-economic-zone-off-alaska-bering-sea-and-aleutian-islands-king-and-tanner","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2011-10798?publication_date=2011-05-04","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2011-05-04/2011-10798/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":3,"page_views":{"count":51,"last_updated":"2026-08-25 00:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2011-05-04/pdf/2011-10798.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2011-05-04","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2011/05/04/2011-10798.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{"0648-XA20":null},"regulation_id_numbers":["0648-XA20"],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-05-24T08:06:54Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":25295,"subtype":null,"title":"Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands King and Tanner Crabs","toc_doc":"Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands King and Tanner Crabs","toc_subject":"Fisheries of Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska:","topics":[],"type":"Proposed Rule","volume":76}
