Description
NMFS, in cooperation with the New England
Fishery Management Council (Council), is soliciting 2010 Atlantic
Herring (herring) Research Set-Aside (RSA) proposals that address
research priorities concerning the herring fishery. The Herring RSA
Program was created by the Council as a vehicle to fund research
projects through the sale of research quota. Under this program, the
Council may set aside up to 3 percent of the total allowable landings
(TAL) to fund selected projects. Proceeds from the sale of research
quota are used to pay for research costs and to compensate fishing
vessels that harvest research quota. Participating vessels may be
authorized to harvest and land fish in excess of Federal possession
limits and/or during fishery closures. No Federal funds are provided
for research under this notification. NMFS and the Council will give
priority to funding proposals addressing the research needs identified
in Section I-B of this document.
