Abstract: Amendment 80 to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area allocates Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area non-pollock trawl groundfish fisheries among fishing sectors, established a limited access privilege program, and facilitates the formation of harvesting cooperatives in the non-American Fisheries Act trawl catcher/processor sector. Under the mandate to increase retention annually, vessels are given individual quota shares of target species and bycatch and are accountable for their own bycatch avoidance and performance. The Program applies retention standards on an aggregate basis to all activities of a cooperative, allowing participants within the cooperative to coordinate fishing and retention practices across the cooperative to meet the retention requirements. The Amendment 80 EDR collects data on cost, revenue, ownership, and employment on an annual basis.
