§ 165.T17–023 Safety Zone; Alaska, South
Central, Cook Inlet, Kamishak Bay.
Technical Standards
The National Technology Transfer
and Advancement Act (NTTAA) (15
U.S.C. 272 note) directs agencies to use
voluntary consensus standards in their
regulatory activities unless the agency
provides Congress, through the Office of
Management and Budget, with an
explanation of why using these
standards would be inconsistent with
applicable law or otherwise impractical.
Voluntary consensus standards are
technical standards (e.g., specifications
of materials, performance, design, or
operation; test methods; sampling
procedures; and related management
systems practices) that are developed or
adopted by voluntary consensus
standards bodies.
This rule does not use technical
standards. Therefore, we did not
consider the use of voluntary consensus
standards.
(a) Description. This safety zone
consists of the area located within 1
nautical mile of St. Augustine Island.
(b) Enforcement periods. The safety
zone in this section will be enforced
from January 18, 2006 through
September 1, 2006.
(c) Regulations. (1) The Captain of the
Port and the Duty Officer at Marine
Safety Office, Anchorage, Alaska can be
contacted at telephone number (907)
271–6700.
(2) The Captain of the Port may
authorize and designate any Coast
Guard commissioned, warrant, or petty
officer to act on his behalf in enforcing
the safety zone.
(3) The general regulations governing
safety zones contained in § 165.23
apply. No person or vessel may enter or
remain in this safety zone without first
obtaining permission from the Captain
of the Port or his on-scene
representative.

SUMMARY:
PART 165—[AMENDED]
1. The authority citation for part 165
continues to read as follows:
I
Authority: 33 U.S.C. 1226, 1231; 46 U.S.C.
Chapter 701; 50 U.S.C. 191, 195; 33 CFR
1.05–1(g), 6.04–1, 6.04–6, and 160.5; Pub. L.
107–295, 116 Stat. 2064; Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No. 0170.1.
2. From January 18, 2006 to
September 1, 2006, add temporary
§ 165.T17–023 to read as follows:
Section
1007(a)(2) of the Legal Services
Corporation Act (‘‘Act’’), 42 U.S.C.
2996f(a)(2), requires the Corporation to
establish maximum income levels for
individuals eligible for legal assistance,
and the Act provides that other
specified factors shall be taken into
account along with income.
Section 1611.3(b) of the Corporation’s
regulations establishes a maximum
income level equivalent to one hundred
and twenty-five percent (125%) of the
Federal Poverty Guidelines. Since 1982,
the Department of Health and Human
Services has been responsible for
updating and issuing the Federal
Poverty Guidelines. The revised figures
for 2006 set out below are equivalent to
125% of the current Federal Poverty
Guidelines as published on January 24,
2006 (71 FR 3848).
In addition, LSC is publishing charts
listing income levels that are 200% of
the Federal Poverty Guidelines. These
charts are for reference purposes only as
an aid to grant recipients in assessing
the financial eligibility of an applicant
whose income is greater than 125% of
the applicable Federal Poverty
Guidelines amount, but less than 200%
of the applicable Federal Poverty
Guidelines amount (and who may be
found to be financially eligible under
duly adopted exceptions to the annual
income ceiling in accordance with
sections 1611.3, 1611.4 and 1611.5).
ACTION:
Environment
We have analyzed this rule under
Commandant Instruction M16475.lD,
which guides the Coast Guard in
complying with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321–4370f). A final
‘‘Environmental Analysis Check List’’
and a final ‘‘Categorical Exclusion
Determination’’ will be available in the

The
fishery for coastal migratory pelagic fish
(king mackerel, Spanish mackerel, cero,
cobia, little tunny, and, in the Gulf of
Mexico only, dolphin and bluefish) is
managed under the Fishery
Management Plan for the Coastal
Migratory Pelagic Resources of the Gulf
of Mexico and South Atlantic (FMP).
The FMP was prepared by the Gulf of
Mexico and South Atlantic Fishery
Management Councils (Councils) and is
implemented under the authority of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(Magnuson-Stevens Act) by regulations
at 50 CFR part 622.
Based on the Councils’ recommended
total allowable catch and the allocation
ratios in the FMP, on April 30, 2001 (66

eastern zone (Florida) of the Gulf
migratory group of king mackerel. That
quota is further divided into separate
quotas for the Florida east coast subzone
and the northern and southern Florida
west coast subzones. The quota
implemented for the Florida east coast
subzone is 1,040,625 lb (472,020 kg) (50
CFR 622.42(c)(1)(i)(A)(1)).
In accordance with 50 CFR
622.44(a)(2)(i), beginning on February 1,
if less than 75 percent of the Florida east
coast subzone quota has been harvested
by that date, king mackerel in or from
that subzone may be possessed on board
or landed from a permitted vessel in
amounts not exceeding 75 fish per day.
The 75–fish daily trip limit will
continue until a closure of the subzone’s
fishery has been effected or the fishing
year ends on March 31, 2006.
NMFS has determined that 75 percent
of the quota for Gulf group king
mackerel for vessels using hook-andline gear in the Florida east coast
subzone will not be reached before
February 1, 2006. Accordingly, a 75–fish
trip limit applies to vessels in the
commercial hook-and-line fishery for
king mackerel in or from the EEZ in the
Florida east coast subzone effective
12:01 a.m., local time, February 1, 2006.
The 75–fish trip limit will remain in
effect until the fishery closes or until the
end of the current fishing season (March
