## Abstract

NMFS announces that the New England Fishery Management Council (Council) has resubmitted a previously disapproved proposal contained in Amendment 7 to the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP) concerning the Possession Limit category permit. The Council revised the permit and submitted it for Secretarial review. The intended effect of this measure is to allow fishing for nonregulated multispecies (silver hake, red hake, and ocean pout) in fisheries having minimal bycatch of regulated multispecies.
