[Rimarinefisheries] PUBLIC LISTENING SESSIONS FOR THE RECREATIONAL NORTHEAST MULTISPECIES (GROUNDFISH) PARTY AND CHARTER FISHERY - RI meeting on April 23rd

[RI Marine Fisheries]

The New England Fishery Management Council (Council) may develop an amendment to the Northeast Multispecies (Groundfish) Fishery Management Plan (FMP). The Council, its Recreational Advisory Panel, Groundfish Committee, and Groundfish Plan Development Team held preliminary public discussions on a possible limited access program for the recreational party and charter fishery. The Council is seeking public input on the possibility of developing a limited access program for the recreational groundfish party and charter fishery. After information is gathered through the listening sessions, the Groundfish Committee will consider possibly recommending to the Council an initiation of an amendment, with input from the Recreational Advisory Panel and Groundfish Plan Development Team, through a series of public meetings during 2019.
