Abstract
NMFS announces changes to the trip limits in the Pacific Coast groundfish limited entry fisheries for Sebastes complex species north of Cape Mendocino, and for yellowtail rockfish and for rockfish other than yellowtail and canary rockfish within the Sebastes complex, north of Cape Mendocino. These actions, which are authorized by the Pacific Coast groundfish fishery management plan (FMP), are intended to help the fisheries achieve optimum yields (OYs).
