## Abstract

NMFS announces the interim final harvest quotas for the northern anchovy fishery in the exclusive economic zone south of Point Reyes, California, for the 1999-2000 fishing year. These quotas were established according to the current regulations implementing the Northern Anchovy Fishery Management Plan (FMP). Amendment 8 to the FMP, which was partially approved by NMFS on June 10, 1999, will change the methodology of establishing the quota. However, the final rule implementing Amendment 8 was not published by August 1, when the fishery began. Therefore, existing regulations must be used to set the quotas for the 1999-2000 fishing season. The intended effect of this action is to establish allowable harvest levels for the central subpopulation of northern anchovy.
