The nontrawl sablefish Harvest guideline is 2814 metric tons and the Tribal sablefish Harvest guide- line is 300 metric tons. *Unspecified rockfish catches for the Vancouver and Columbia areas are not included in the catches for the various Vancouver and Columbia rockfish species on this report. Unspecified rockfish catches for these areas are apportioned when projections are made. V&C = Van&Col = U.S. Vancouver & Columbia INPFC areas combined V&C&E&M = U.S. Vancouver & Columbia & Eureka & Monterey INPFC areas combined V&NC = U.S. Vancouver & No. Columbia (No. of Cape Falcon) areas combined E&SC = Eureka & So. Columbia (So. of Cape Falcon) areas combined C&E&M = Columbia & Eureka & Monterey INPFC areas combined E&M&C = Eureka & Monterey & Conception INPFC areas combined SBTS+URCK = Sebastes Complex plus Unspecified Rockfish. Due to the large amount of rockfish catch classified as unspecified rockfish (primarily in the Monterey and Conception areas) SBTS+URCK is the best estimate of catch for Sebastes Complex for the E&M&C area.
