Summary

NMFS is prohibiting retention of the incidental catch allowance for Pacific Ocean perch in the Central Regulatory Area of the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) except by vessels checked-in to the Central GOA Rockfish Program who are fishing with a rockfish cooperative quota permit. This action is necessary because the 2026 total allowable catch (TAC) apportioned as the incidental catch allowance for Pacific Ocean perch in the Central GOA will soon be or has been reached.
