About the Council The Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council was established by Congress in 1976 through the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA) to manage fisheries in offshore waters of the US Pacific Islands. The Council protects marine resources while maintaining opportunities for domestic fishing at sustainable levels of effort and yield. It promotes environmentally responsible fishing in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), Guam, Hawai‘i, American Samoa and the US Pacific remote island areas. The 2006 reauthorized MSA requires the regulation of federally managed fisheries through annual catch limits (ACLs).

Note: ACLs are not specified for most pelagic species because they are subject to international fishing agreements or have life cycles of less than a year and are thus exempted from the ACL requirement.

About This Calendar The Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council (WPRFMC) has produced traditional lunar calendars for the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) since 2007. The intent is to raise public awareness about traditional ecological knowledge and enhance community involvement in fishery management. These integral parts of the ecosystem-based approach to fishery management are components of the Mariana Archipelago and Pacific Pelagic Fishery Ecosystem Plans (FEPs) for the Western Pacific Region developed, monitored and amended by the WPRFMC to conserve and manage fisheries in federal waters surrounding the CNMI. This 2015 Refaluwasch Pápáál Maram (Refaluwasch Lunar Calendar) features the contributions and advice of the Refaluwasch Lunar Calendar Committee: Joe Limes, Valerio Mality, Jack Ogumoro, Lino Olopai, Cecilio Raiukiulipiy and Andrew Roapou. The calendar

highlights traditional fishing and conservation practices of the Refaluwasch, who along with the Chamorro, are the indigenous people of the Mariana Archipelago (Guam and the CNMI). The tide charts with the moon rise and set times are in Chamorro time for Saipan were provided by OceanFun Publishing, New Zealand. The moon phases were calculated using the QuickPhase Pro 3.3.5 program. The illustrations are the winning entries of the student art contest held in the CNMI on the theme of “Let’s Go Fishing, a responsible and traditional activity.” A special thanks to the art contest judges: Britta Beachler, Division of Fish & Wildlife (DFW) marine protected area coordinator; Emma Itibus, DFW education and outreach specialist; and Lino Olopai, traditional and cultural practitioner. The project coordinators were Jack Ogumoro, WPRFMC on-site coordinator in the CNMI, and Sylvia Spalding, WPRFMC communications officer.
