This closure is designed to reduce the incidental catch of halibut by trawl fisheries in December-May, when halibut are concen- trated in this region. Bilateral agreements with Japan and the were renegotiated at two-year intervals, creating some changes in areas of fishing and providing loading zones for transshipping fishery products and supplies between fishing and cargo vessels within the contig- uous fishing zone. Bilateral agreements were also established with Canada in 1970, the Republic of Korea in 1972, and Poland in 1975. In 1973, the bilateral agreement with Japan and the began to include catch quotas for herring and various demersal species of fish in the eastern Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands region. These quotas were periodically updated and remained in force through 1976 (Table 60-10).
