s, '{i Aug 30, 201 1 Paul Howard, <strong>New</strong> <strong>England</strong> <strong>Fishery</strong> Management Council Subject: Accidentally Caught and Killed Dear Paul Howard, <strong>New</strong> <strong>England</strong> <strong>Fishery</strong> Management Council, Almost four years ago, the <strong>New</strong> <strong>England</strong> <strong>Fishery</strong> Management Council initiated a plan to improve catch monitoring and reduce bycatch in the Atlantic herring fishery a move that resulted in nearly 10,000 public comments calling for effective action to reform the industrial herring midwater trawl fleet. While I heartily support and applaud many of the reforms being proposed, I am concerned there could be an eleventh hour move to eliminate some key monitoring and bycatch reduction measures before the public is given the opportunity to comment. As we near completion of this plan, please ensure the Council continues to demonstrate their commitment and support of meaningful reform of the Atlantic herring fishery by approving for public comment the fulI range of management options developed in <strong>Amendment</strong> 5, including: **100 percent at-sea monitoring on all midwater trawl fishing trips (i.e., one observer per vessel to sample all catch) in order to provide reliable estimates ofherring catch and bycatch ofriver herring, shad, groundfish and other non-target species. **No herring fishing in areas designated as river herring bycatch "hotspots" to protect river herring and the predators that depend on their coastal migrations. **No herring midwater trawling in areas established to protect rebuilding groundfish populations. **A prohibition on the release or dumping ofunsampled catch except under exceptional circumstances, such as mechanical failure or when safety is a concern. **A set ofconsequences to discourage the wasteful dumping ofcatch, including an accountability system to ensure the exceptions are not abused (a fleetwide allowance of ten dumping events for each herring management area, after which any dumping event would require a return to port). Thank you for your consideration of my comments as you finalize these much-needed and long-awaited reforms to the industrialized Atlantic herring fishery. Sincerely, Dr. Lisa Allarde Dr. Lisa Allarde 129 Milan Way Green Lane, PA 18054 5.
