The probability of the RAP recommendations keeping the catch with in the Sub-ACL is greater that 50% (63% IIRC) and so the recommendations will go directly to NMFS and bypass both the groundfish committee and the full council. The council enacted that provision in January. So it seem like they are willing to go along with whatever the RAP recommends as long as it has a reasonable chance of succeeding.
