The

in conjunction with the National Marine
Fisheries Service intends to prepare
Draft Environmental Impact Statements
(DEISs) to describe and analyze
management alternatives to be included
in amendments to the Fishery
Management Plans (FMPs) for the spiny
lobster, reeffish, and queen conch
fisheries of Puerto Rico and the U.S.
Virgin Islands. The alternatives include:
no action; to require escape vents of
various sizes and shapes in traps and
pots; to extend the seasonal closure for
queen conch or set an annual quota; or
to close the fishery for this species in
the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off
St. Croix, U.S.V.I. Also, the Council
seeks input to implement a size limit on
imports of spiny lobster into the USA.
The purpose of this scoping meeting is
to solicit comments from agencies and
the general public on the scope of issues
to be addressed by the Council.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained in this agenda may come
before this group for discussion, those
issues may not be the subject of formal
action during this meeting. Action will
be restricted to those issues specifically
identified in this notice and any issues
arising after publication of this notice
that require emergency action under
section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens

Act, provided the public has been
notified of the Council’s intent to take
final action to address the emergency.

SUMMARY: The National

program through which each eligible
low-power television broadcast station,
Class A television station, television
translator station, or television booster
station, may receive compensation
toward the cost of the purchase of a
digital-to-analog conversion device that
enables it to convert the incoming
digital signal of its corresponding fullpower television station to analog
format for transmission on the lowpower television station’s analog
channel. The conversion devices are
necessary so the eligible stations can
continue to broadcast in analog after

devices, the eligible facilities will be
unable to receive the incoming off-air
digital signal for conversion and
rebroadcast to consumers within their
coverage area.
DATES: Applications for the Low-Power
Digital Conversion Program may be
submitted during the period October 29,
2007–February 17, 2009. Applications
requesting Priority compensation may

submitted beginning February 1, 2008.
