1 Except for GOM cod and GOM haddock, the groundfish sub-ACL is equal to the commercial groundfish sub-ACL.  For GOM cod and GOM haddock, the groundfish sub-ACL includes the commercial sub-ACL and the recreational sub-ACL.  For inseason monitoring, the commercial groundfish sub-ACL for GOM cod is 830 mt and 187 mt for GOM haddock.
1The midwater trawl herring fishery GB haddock sub-ACL was reduced mid-year to account for an overage of the 2015 sub-ACL.
