The New England Fishery Management Council will hold a public scoping meeting on Monday, April 22 for Amendment 10 to the Atlantic Herring Fishery Management Plan. The Amendment will address spatial and temporal allocation and management of Atlantic herring at the management unit level to minimize user conflicts, contribute to optimum yield, and support rebuilding of the resource. The Amendment also proposes to take action to enhance river herring (alewife and blueback herring) and shad (American shad and hickory shad) avoidance and other catch reduction measures to better support ongoing coastwide restoration efforts for those species. Visit the Amendment 10 webpage for more information.
