Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 82 / Friday, April 28, 2006 / Rules and Regulations
benefits for services furnished on or
after September 30, 2001. On December
22, 1997, the Departments of Health and
Human Services, Labor, and the
Treasury issued interim final
regulations under MHPA in the Federal
Register (62 FR 66931). The interim
final regulations included this statutory
sunset date.
The sunset date has been extended on
a yearly basis by subsequent statutory
provisions, which are described in
detail in the amendment to the interim
final rule published July 22, 2005 (70 FR
42276). The Department has published
changes to the interim final mental
health parity regulations to conform the
expiration date of the regulation to each
new statutory sunset date. (See 70 FR
42276, July 22, 2005).
On December 30, 2005, President
Bush signed H.R. 4579 (Pub. L. 109–
151). That legislation further extended
MHPA’s sunset date under the PHS Act,
ERISA, and the Tax Code so that
MHPA’s provisions apply to any
services furnished through December
31, 2006.
This statutory amendment has not
altered MHPA’s scope. It continues to
apply to a large group health plan (or
health insurance coverage offered in
connection with a large group health
plan) that provides both medical/
surgical benefits and mental health
benefits. To assist plan sponsors, health
insurance issuers, and covered
individuals, the Department is
publishing this amendment to the
interim final regulations, conforming
the regulatory sunset date to the new
statutory sunset date. The Department is
making the effective date of this
amendment to the interim final
regulations effective as of May 30, 2006.
Since the extension of this sunset date
is essentially self-implementing, this
amendment to the MHPA regulations is
published on an interim final basis
under section 2792 of the PHS Act.
III. Collection of Information
Requirements
This document does not impose
information collection and
recordkeeping requirements.
Consequently, it need not be reviewed
by the Office of Management and
Budget under the authority of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
IV. Regulatory Impact Statement
wwhite on PROD1PC61 with RULES
Overall Impact
We have examined the impacts of this
rule as required by Executive Order
12866 (September 1993, Regulatory
Planning and Review), the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (RFA) (September 16,
VerDate Aug<31>2005
16:28 Apr 27, 2006
Jkt 208001
1980, Pub. L. 96–354), the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L.
104–4), and Executive Order 13132.
Executive Order 12866 (as amended
by Executive Order 13258, which
merely reassigns responsibility of
duties) directs agencies to assess all
costs and benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, if regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, distributive impacts, and
equity). A regulatory impact analysis
(RIA) must be prepared for major rules
with economically significant effects
($100 million or more in any 1 year).
According to the terms of the Executive
Order, it has been determined that this
action is not a ‘‘significant regulatory
action’’ within the meaning of the
Executive Order. Rather, it is an
amendment to the 1997 interim final
regulations that makes no substantive
changes to those regulations, and merely
extends the regulatory sunset date to
conform to the new statutory sunset
date added by Public Law 109–151.
Because it is not a major rule, we are not
required to perform an assessment of the
costs and savings.
The RFA requires agencies to analyze
options for regulatory relief of small
businesses. For purposes of the RFA,
small entities include small businesses,
nonprofit organizations, and
government agencies. Most hospitals
and most other providers and suppliers
are small entities, either by nonprofit
status or by having revenues of $6
million to $29 million in any 1 year.
Individuals and States are not included
in the definition of a small entity. We
are not preparing an analysis for the
RFA because we have determined, and
we certify, that this rule will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
Section 202 of the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 also
requires that agencies assess anticipated
costs and benefits before issuing any
rule that may result in expenditure in
any 1 year by State, local, or tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or by the
private sector, of $110 million. This rule
will have no consequential effect on the
governments mentioned or on the
private sector.
Executive Order 13132 establishes
certain requirements that an agency
must meet when it publishes a proposed
rule (and subsequent final rule) that
imposes substantial direct requirement
costs on State and local governments,
preempts State law, or otherwise has
Federalism implications. We have
reviewed this final rule and have
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4700
Sfmt 4700
25093
determined that it will not have a
substantial effect on State or local
governments.
We have reviewed this rule and
determined that, under the provisions of
Public Law 104–121, the Contract with
America Act, it is not a major rule.

SUMMARY: On April 13, 2006, an interim
final rule to implement an emergency
action for the Northeast (NE)
Multispecies Fishery Management Plan
(FMP) was published in the Federal
Register. The interim final rule was
published with several inadvertent
errors and unclear language, including
the omission of the observer notice
requirement for vessels participating in
the U.S./Canada Management Area,
language in the regulations defining
how monkfish-only days-at-sea (DAS)
are calculated, an inaccurate description
regarding the example of how NE
multispecies Category A DAS will be
calculated for Day gillnet vessels, and
incorrect trip limits for white hake. This
document corrects these errors and
clarifies the unclear language.

Background
On April 13, 2006 (71 FR 19348, FR
Doc. 06–3504), an interim final rule was
published that implemented emergency
management measures, authorized by
section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act, that are intended to immediately
reduce fishing mortality on specific
groundfish stocks beginning May 1,
2006, in order to maintain the
rebuilding programs established under
Amendment 13 to the FMP. However,
the interim final rule included several
inadvertent errors and some unclear
language in both the preamble and the
regulatory text that need to be corrected
or clarified. The errors and unclear
language were incorrect examples of

Jkt 208001
how monkfish-only DAS are calculated
when a vessel issued both a limited
access NE multispecies DAS and a
monkfish permit is subject to
differential DAS counting, an inaccurate
description regarding the examples of
how NE multispecies Category A DAS
will be calculated for Day gillnet
vessels, omission of the observer notice
requirement for vessels participating in
the U.S./Canada Management Area, and
inaccurate white hake trip limits in the
regulatory text that differed from the
preamble text. This notice corrects these
errors and clarifies the unclear language,
as described below.

SUMMARY: The following 2006 fishing
year (FY) Total Allowable Catches
(TACs) are implemented for the
Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery
Management Plan (FMP). Hard (i.e., the
fishery or area closes when a TAC is
reached) TACs for Eastern Georges Bank
(GB) cod, Eastern GB haddock, and GB
yellowtail flounder in the U.S./Canada
Management Area; target TACs for all
NE regulated multispecies; and hard
Incidental Catch TACs for groundfish
stocks of concern. The intent of this
action is to provide for the conservation
and management of groundfish
management under the NE Multispecies
Fishery Management Plan (FMP).
The U.S./Canada TACs as
identified in Table 1 of this rule are
effective May 1, 2006, through April 30,
2007. The target TACs as identified in
Table 3 of this document and the
Incidental Catch TACs as identified in
Table 4 are effective May 1, 2006,
through October 25, 2006.

Thomas Warren, Fishery Policy Analyst,
(978) 281–9347, fax (978) 281–9135, email Thomas.Warren@NOAA.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A
proposed rule for this action was
published on March 13, 2006, (71 FR
12665) with public comments accepted
though April 12, 2006. A detailed
description of the administrative
process used to develop the TACs was
contained in the preamble of the
proposed rule and is not repeated here.
The FMP specifies procedures for
setting three types of TACs: (1) Annual
hard (i.e., the fishery or area closes
when a TAC is reached) TACs for
Eastern GB cod, Eastern GB haddock,
and GB yellowtail flounder; (2) target
TACs for all regulated groundfish
stocks; and (3) hard Incidental Catch
TACs for groundfish stocks of concern.
DATES:
Hard TACs
The regulations governing the annual
development of hard TACs for the U.S./
25095
Canada Management Area species
(§ 648.85(a)(2)) were implemented
through the final rule for Amendment
13 to the FMP (69 FR 22906; April 27,
2004) in order to be consistent with the
U.S./Canada Resource Sharing
Understanding (Understanding), which
is an informal understanding between
the United States and Canada that
outlines a process for the management
of the shared GB groundfish resources.
The Understanding specifies an
allocation of TAC for these three stocks
for each country, based on a formula
that considers historical catch
percentages and current resource
distribution.
On September 15, 2005, the Council
accepted the recommendations of the
TMGC for the FY 2006 TACs for GB cod,
GB haddock, and GB yellowtail
flounder. The recommended 2006 TACs
were based upon the most recent stock
assessments (Transboundary Resource
Assessment Committee (TRAC) Status
Reports for 2005), and the fishing
mortality strategy shared by both the
U.S. and Canada. The strategy is to
maintain a low to neutral risk of
exceeding the fishing mortality limit
reference (Fref = 0.18, 0.26, and 0.25 for
cod, haddock, and yellowtail flounder,
respectively). That is, when stock
conditions are poor, fishing mortality
rates (F) should be further reduced to
promote rebuilding.
This action implements the following
hard TACs for GB: 374 mt of GB cod,
7,480 mt of GB haddock, and 2,070 mt
of GB yellowtail flounder. The FY 2006
haddock and yellowtail flounder TACs
represent decreases from FY 2005 TAC
levels (by 1 percent and 51 percent,
respectively), and the FY 2006 cod TAC
represents a 44-percent increase from
the FY 2005 TAC (Tables 1 and 2).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On April 13, 2006 (71 FR 19348, FR Doc. 06-3504), an interim final
rule was published that implemented emergency management measures,
authorized by section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act, that are intended to immediately
reduce fishing mortality on specific groundfish stocks beginning May 1,
2006, in order to maintain the rebuilding programs established under
Amendment 13 to the FMP. However, the interim final rule included
several inadvertent errors and some unclear language in both the
preamble and the regulatory text that need to be corrected or
clarified. The errors and unclear language were incorrect examples of
how monkfish-only DAS are calculated when a vessel issued both a
limited access NE multispecies DAS and a monkfish permit is subject to
differential DAS counting, an inaccurate description regarding the
examples of how NE multispecies Category A DAS will be calculated for
Day gillnet vessels, omission of the observer notice requirement for
vessels participating in the U.S./Canada Management Area, and
inaccurate white hake trip limits in the regulatory text that differed
from the preamble text. This notice corrects these errors and clarifies
the unclear language, as described below.
Correction
Accordingly, the interim final rule, published on April 13, 2006,
at 71 FR 19348, to be effective May 1, 2006, is corrected as follows:
