BACKGROUND At its June 2001 meeting, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) adopted a suite of alternatives, elements and options for analysis of a rationalization program for the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) crab fisheries. After a status report and pre-initial review at its December 2001 meeting, the Council amende... crab rationalization alternatives would be scheduled for the April 2002 Council meeting. ~ The proposed action would develop an IFQ or cooperative program to manage the BSAI crab fisheries. A change in management from the current License Limitation Program (LLP) may be necessary to alleviate problems of resource conservation, bycatch and handling mortality, excessive harvesting capacity, lack of economic stability, and safety that have arisen because of the race to fish that has occurred LL... 02/06/2002 08:00 AM AKST

BSAI Crab-Herring PSC Limits.pdf NPFMC/IPHC February 2015 - Joint Meeting BSAI Crab-Herring PSC Limits Joint NPFMC-IPHC 2/5/15 1.1 Abundance-based PSC limits in Alaska fisheries The Council has established crab and herring PSC limits in the BSAI groundfish fisheries that are abundance-based. In all cases, these PSC limits are apportioned to specific sectors or target fisheries, and their attainment triggers the closure of specified area(s) to groundfish fishing by that sector or target fishery (Figure 1). The Council uses the calculations established in ... crab. For herring, the Council has established the PSC limit as a flat percentage of the annual biomass for herring in the eastern Bering Sea. The biomass is established annually by ADFG, using surveys and an age-structured model. Attainment of the herring PSC limits, which are apportioned to target fisheries, closes summer or winter herring savings areas in the Bering Sea to that target fishery. For crab, the Council has designed stairstep measures to reduce the PSC limits at low ... 02/05/2015 10:00 AM AKST

The Pribilof Islands blue king crab fishery began in 1973, with peak landings of 4,990 t (11.0 million lb) during the 1980/81 season. A steep decline in landings occurred after the 1980/81 season.

Subsequently, Amendment 43 to the King and Tanner Crab FMP and Amendment 103 to the BSAI Groundfish FMP were approved by the Secretary of Commerce in 2014. This action, a revised rebuilding plan, closed the Pribilof Island Habitat Conservation Zone to Pacific cod pot fishing, which accounts for the highest recent rates of bycatch of this stock.

In light of the steep decline in abundance of female red king crab observed by the 2021 Eastern Bering Sea (EBS) trawl survey and subsequent closure of the directed red king crab fishery, we are asking for limited, short-term emergency action to be implemented by January 20, 2022, to expand the Red King Crab Savings Area (RKCSA) closure to bottom trawling to protect female Bristol Bay red king crab (BBRKC).
