SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
modified BFEs are not listed for each
community in this interim rule.
However, the address of the Chief
Executive Officer of the community
where the modified BFE determinations
are available for inspection is provided.
Any request for reconsideration must
be based on knowledge of changed
conditions or new scientific or technical
data.
The modifications are made pursuant
to Section 201 of the Flood Disaster
Protection Act of 1973, 42 U.S.C. 4105,
and are in accordance with the National
Flood Insurance Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C.
4001 et seq., and with 44 CFR part 65.
For rating purposes, the currently
effective community number is shown
and must be used for all new policies
and renewals.
The modified BFEs are the basis for
the floodplain management measures
that the community is required to either
adopt or to show evidence of being
already in effect in order to qualify or
to remain qualified for participation in
the National Flood Insurance Program
(NFIP).
These modified BFEs, together with
the floodplain management criteria
required by 44 CFR 60.3, are the
minimum that are required. They
should not be construed to mean that
the community must change any
existing ordinances that are more
stringent in their floodplain
management requirements. The
community may at any time enact
stricter requirements of its own, or
pursuant to policies established by other
Federal, State, or regional entities.
The changes in BFEs are in
accordance with 44 CFR 65.4.

SUMMARY: NMFS is prohibiting directed
fishing for Pacific cod by catcher vessels
less than 60 ft (18.3 meters (m)) length
overall (LOA) using jig or hook-and-line
gear in the Bogoslof Pacific cod
exemption area of the Bering Sea and

prevent exceeding the limit of Pacific
cod for catcher vessels less than 60 ft
(18.3 m) LOA using jig or hook-and-line
gear in the Bogoslof Pacific cod
exemption area in the BSAI.
DATES: Effective 1200 hrs, Alaska local
time (A.l.t.), February 22, 2006, through
2400 hrs, A.l.t., December 31, 2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Josh
Keaton, 907–586–7228.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS
manages the groundfish fishery in the
BSAI according to the Fishery
Management Plan for Groundfish of the
Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands
Management Area (FMP) prepared by
the North Pacific Fishery Management
Council under authority of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act.
Regulations governing fishing by U.S.
vessels in accordance with the FMP
appear at subpart H of 50 CFR part 600
and 50 CFR part 679.
In accordance with
§ 679.22(a)(7)(i)(C)(1) and (2), the
Administrator, Alaska Region, NMFS
(Regional Administrator), has
determined that 113 metric tons of
Pacific cod have been caught by catcher
vessels less than 60 ft (18.3 m) LOA
using jig or hook-and-line gear in the
Bogoslof exemption area described at
§ 679.22(a)(7)(i)(C)(1). Consequently, the
Regional Administrator is prohibiting
directed fishing for Pacific cod by
catcher vessels less than 60 ft (18.3 m)
LOA using jig or hook-and-line gear in
the Bogoslof Pacific cod exemption area.

Classification
This action responds to the best
available information recently obtained
from the fishery. The Assistant
Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA
(AA), finds good cause to waive the
requirement to provide prior notice and
opportunity for public comment
pursuant to the authority set forth at 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as such requirement is
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest. This requirement is
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest as it would prevent NMFS from
responding to the most recent fisheries
data in a timely fashion and would
delay the closure of Pacific cod by
catcher vessels less than 60 ft (18.3 m)
LOA using jig or hook-and-line gear in
the Bogoslof Pacific cod exemption area.
The AA also finds good cause to
waive the 30–day delay in the effective
date of this action under 5 U.S.C.
553(d)(3). This finding is based upon
the reasons provided above for waiver of
prior notice and opportunity for public
comment.
This action is required by section
679.22 and is exempt from review under
Executive Order 12866.
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
