Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 32 / Thursday, February 17, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
VRS Cannot Be Used as a Substitute for
Video Remote Interpreting (VRI)
We again remind providers (and
consumers) that VRS is not the same as
Video Remote Interpreting (VRI), even
though both services use the Internet
and a video connection to permit
persons with hearing disabilities to
communicate with persons without
such disabilities. See generally 2004
TRS Report & Order at paragraphs 162
n.466 & 172 n.490. VRI is a service that
is used when an interpreter cannot be
physically present to interpret for two
persons who are together at the same
location (for example, at a meeting or in
a doctor’s office). In that situation, an
interpreter at a remote location may be
used via a video connection. A fee is
generally charged by companies that
offer this service.
By contrast, VRS, like all forms of
TRS, is a means of giving access to the
telephone system. Therefore, VRS is to
be used only when a person with a
hearing disability, who absent such
disability would make a voice telephone
call, desires to make a call to a person
without such a disability through the
telephone system (or if, in the reverse
situation, the hearing person desires to
make such a call to a person with a
hearing disability). VRS calls are
compensated from the Interstate TRS
Fund, which is overseen by the
Commission. In circumstances where a
person with a hearing disability desires
to communicate with someone in
person, he or she may not use VRS but
must either hire an ‘‘in-person’’
interpreter or a VRI service.
We will continue to carefully
scrutinize the provision and use of VRS
to ensure that it is being used only as
a means of accessing the telephone
system, not as a substitute for VRI.

SUMMARY: On January 4, 2005, we, the
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
published a final rule to designate
critical habitat for the threatened Santa
Ana sucker (Catostomus santaanae)
pursuant to the Endangered Species Act
of 1973, as amended. Because we made
an error in use of amendatory language,
one of the final rule’s two regulatory
amendments could not be properly
reflected in the Code of Federal
Regulations. This correction document
rectifies that error.

SUMMARY: NMFS issues this emergency
rule to establish trip limits for the
commercial shallow-water and deepwater grouper fisheries in the exclusive
economic zone of the Gulf of Mexico.
The intended effect of this emergency
rule is to moderate the rate of harvest of
the available quotas and, thereby,
reduce the adverse social and economic
effects of derby fishing, enable more
effective quota monitoring, and reduce
the probability of overfishing.
DATES: This rule is effective March 3,
2005 through August 16, 2005.
Comments on this emergency rule must
be received no later than 5 p.m., eastern
time, on March 21, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
fishery for reef fish is managed under
the Fishery Management Plan for the
Reef Fish Resources of the Gulf of
Mexico (FMP) that was prepared by the
Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management
Council (Council). This FMP was
approved by NMFS and implemented
under the authority of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act) by regulations at 50 CFR part 622.
Background
On June 15, 2004, NMFS published a
final rule (69 FR 33315) to end
overfishing of red grouper in the Gulf of
Mexico and to implement a stock
rebuilding plan as provided in
Secretarial Amendment 1 to the FMP.
That final rule established a red grouper
commercial quota; reduced the shallowwater and deep-water grouper
commercial quotas; and included a
provision to close the entire shallowwater grouper commercial fishery when
either the red grouper quota or the
shallow-water grouper quota is reached.
