2016-2018 Atlantic Herring Research Set Aside
NMFS, with assistance from the New England Fishery Management Council (Council), is soliciting proposals for 2016 - 2018 that address Atlantic Herring RSA research priorities.
Proceeds from the sale of research quota are used to pay for research costs and to compensate fishing vessel owners that
harvest RSA quota.
No Federal funds are provided for research under this notification.
Rather, proceeds generated from the sale of RSA quota will be used to fund research activities and/or harvest set-aside quota.
Projects funded under the Atlantic Herring RSA Program must enhance the knowledge of Atlantic herring fishery resources or contribute to the body of information on which Council management decisions are made.
Priority will be given to proposals that investigate research priorities identified by the Council, which are detailed under the Program Priorities section of this announcement.
