January 2, 2014 — The following was released by the New England Fishery Management Council (NEFMC):
Corrections to the Council Report emailed on 12/27/2013
Page 2 – The yellowtail flounder annual catch limit to become effective on May 1, 2014 was described as having decreased by 53%.
This value should have been labeled as a 53% increase.
Also, the catch limits for the three stocks managed through the U.S. Canada Resource Sharing Understanding were approved
by the Council in September 2013 and not November. Apologies for the errors.
