Summary

Amends the Atlantic Striped Bass Conservation Act to delay until June 1987 the time during which the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission is required to decide whether certain Atlantic coastal States have adopted all regulatory measures under the Interstate Fisheries Management Plan for Striped Bass. Requires such Commission, no later than July 30, 1987, to report to the Secretaries of Commerce and of the Interior concerning implementation of the regulations under the above Plan. Directs such Commission, during June 1986, to make certain other determinations concerning implementation of regulations under the Plan, and to report certain determinations to the Secretaries. Revises provisions concerning appropriate actions to be taken by the Secretaries against States which are determined not to be in compliance with the Plan to direct the Secretaries, jointly or individually, to declare a moratorium on fishing for Atlantic striped bass within the coastal waters of such States. Makes a technical amendment concerning the definition of the moratorium period. Extends the authorization of appropriations under such Act through FY 1989. Makes the Atlantic Striped Bass Conservation Act permanent (currently, such Act's effective period ends on April 30, 1986).
