    Reading Time:about 2 minutes

    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has announced that New York is transferring 50,000 pounds of its 2024 commercial bluefish quota to North Carolina. This transfer helps North Carolina avoid surpassing its allocated bluefish quota for 2024, in order to comply with the Atlantic Bluefish Fishery Management Plan. As a result of this transfer, New York's new quota for 2024 is 339,190 pounds, while North Carolina's new quota is 1,130,996 pounds. This action is temporary and effective from December 6, 2024, through December 31, 2024.

    Simple Explanation

    New York is giving some of their fish-catching allowance to North Carolina so they don’t catch too many fish. This change is only for a short time and helps follow special rules about catching fish.
