This action involves implementing an inspection program for modified pound net leaders in the Virginia waters of the mainstem Chesapeake Bay. Pound net fishermen must call NMFS to arrange for a meeting. Then, fishermen must meet NMFS and allow for the inspection of his or her gear to ensure the modified leader meets the definition of a modified pound net leader, as described in the regulations. This inspection program is necessary to provide fishermen with the insurance that their leaders meet the regulatory definition of a modified pound net leader before setting their gear, provide managers with the knowledge that the offshore leaders in a portion of the Virginia Chesapeake Bay are configured in a turtle-safe manner, and aid in enforcement efforts. The respondents will be Virginia pound net fishermen.
