was created by the Council as a vehicle to fund research

projects through the sale of research quota.

Under this program, the

Council may set aside up to 3 percent of the total allowable landings

(TAL) to fund selected projects.

Proceeds from the sale of research

quota are used to pay for research costs and to compensate fishing

vessels that harvest research quota.

Participating vessels may be

authorized to harvest and land fish in excess of Federal possession

limits and/or during fishery closures.

No Federal funds are provided

for research under this notification.

NMFS and the Council will give

priority to funding proposals addressing the research needs identified

in Section I-B of this document.
