## Abstract

NMFS issues this final rule to implement portions of Amendment 12 to the Fishery Management Plan for Commercial and Recreational Salmon Fisheries off the Coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California (Salmon FMP). The rule includes, as management objectives for the Salmon FMP, the NMFS jeopardy standards or the objectives of NMFS recovery plans for salmon species that are listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), and eliminates from the Code of Federal Regulations a table that summarizes management goals. This final rule implements that change. The intended effect of this rule is to ensure that ESA listed salmon are given proper consideration in formulating fishery management measures under the Salmon FMP.
