Abstract
NMFS is prohibiting retention of "other rockfish" in the Aleutian Island subarea of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area (BSAI). This action is necessary because the 2011 total allowable catch (TAC) of "other rockfish" in the Aleutian Island subarea of the BSAI has been reached.
