Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: The New England Fishery Management Council is working on a Clam Dredge Framework to consider options for allowing continued surfclam fishery access to parts of the Great South Channel Habitat Management Area (HMA). On December 4, 2018, the Council identified two areas for year-round research: Rose and Crown and Davis Bank East. This proposal will be submitted to the National Marine Fisheries Service for possible approval, rulemaking, and implementation. The Council though the Habitat PDT would develop with the industry a prioritized list of research needs concerning Rose and Crown and Davis Bank East. The intent is to work towards an exempted fishing permit program for these areas, which will support the potential development of additional exemptions in the future. The purpose of limiting the use of clam dredge gear to specific parts of the HMA only is to minimize the impacts of the fishery on benthic habitats.
