    Federal Subsistence Regulations Published in the Federal Register

    The Office of Subsistence Management published a final rule codifying the Federal subsistence regulation amendments made by the Federal Subsistence Board (Board) in February 2025 (90 FR 34152). The rule primarily amends Federal regulations for the take of fish and shellfish for the 2025-2027 regulatory period. This rule also removes the Ketchikan Area from the list of nonrural areas, updates the regulations for the subsistence taking of caribou in Units 11, 12 and 13, and corrects an error from a recent final rule regarding the take of wolf and wolverine in Unit 17.
