Abstract

The Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) amends the regulations governing harvesting and reporting of Antarctic living marine resource catches by vessels of, and persons subject to the jurisdiction of, the United States. The regulations implement conservation and management measures implemented by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR or Commission) and accepted in whole by the Government of the United States to regulate catches in Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (Convention) statistical reporting areas 48 and 58. These measures restrict the use of gear, restrict the directed taking and bycatch of certain species of fish, prohibit the taking of other species, and require real-time and other reporting of the harvest of certain species.
