## Abstract

This notice document announces additional season dates and increases the daily bag limit for some Pacific halibut recreational fisheries in the International Pacific Halibut Commission's (IPHC) regulatory Area 2A off Washington, Oregon, and California. Specifically, this action adds season dates such that the Oregon Central Coast subarea will be open 7 days per week starting September 1, and increases the daily bag limit from one to two fish starting September 1 in the Oregon Central and Southern Coast subareas. This action also provides notice of the closure of the California subarea on August 7, 2022 that was announced by the IPHC on August 5, 2022. This action is intended to conserve Pacific halibut and provide angler opportunity where available.
