Abstract

NMFS issues final specifications for the 2003 spiny dogfish fishery. This final rule implements a commercial quota and possession limits for the 2003 fishing year to address overfishing of the spiny dogfish resource. The intent of this action is to comply with implementing regulations for the Fishery Management Plan (FMP), which require NMFS to publish measures for the upcoming fishing year that will prevent overfishing of this resource.
