Description
NMFS, in cooperation with the Mid-Atlantic
Fishery Management Council (Council), is soliciting proposals under the
2010 Mid-Atlantic Research Set-Aside (RSA) Program that address
research priorities concerning the summer flounder, scup, black sea
bass, Loligo squid, Illex squid, Atlantic mackerel, butterfish,
bluefish, and tilefish fisheries. The Mid-Atlantic 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) from the
above listed species 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.
