North Pacific Fishery Management Council; Public Meeting, 970-971 [E9-31426]

Download as PDF 970 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 4 / Thursday, January 7, 2010 / Notices January 23, 2009, because this is the date that suspension of liquidation went into effect for all subject entries of diamond sawblades, pursuant to the January 22, 2009, notification from the United States International Trade Commission (‘‘ITC’’) that the CIT had sustained the ITC’s redetermination of threat of material injury.2 The Department provides a complete description of the sequence of events leading up to the issuance of the orders in the Diamond Sawblades Orders with references provided for the relevant decisions and notices issued by the ITC, the Department, and the CIT. Anniversary Month of the Orders Although the effective date of the orders is January 23, 2009, based on the date of the suspension of liquidation, the Department designates November as the anniversary month for these diamond sawblades orders because this is the month in which the Department published the notice for these orders. In its regulations, the Department defines the anniversary month as the calendar month in which the anniversary of the date of publication of an order or suspension of investigation occurs. See 19 CFR 351.102(b). Therefore, consistent with section 751(a)(1) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, and 19 CFR 351.213(b), the first opportunity to request a review of the above-referenced orders will be in November 2010. Dated: December 29, 2009. Ronald K. Lorentzen, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import Administration.

ACTION: Notice and request for applications. SUMMARY: The ONMS is seeking applications for both primary and alternate members of the following seats on its Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary 2 See DSMC v. US, No. 06–00247, Slip Op. 09– 05 (CIT Jan. 13, 2009). VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:42 Jan 06, 2010 Jkt 220001 Advisory Council (council): Native Hawaiians, Fishing, Education, Research, Honolulu County, Hawaii County, Maui County, and Kauai County. Applicants are chosen based upon their particular expertise and experience in relation to the seat for which they are applying; community and professional affiliations; philosophy regarding the protection and management of marine resources; and possibly the length of residence in the area affected by the Sanctuary. Additionally, for the first time, the ONMS is seeking to fill a non-voting youth/student seat and alternate seat to represent the youth segment of the community, defined as ages 14–17. The interest and enthusiasm of youth under the age of 18 is very important to the sanctuary; these students are our future generation of ocean stewards and leaders. The ONMS wishes to foster and facilitate these links with youth in sanctuary communities and has added a non-voting youth seat to the advisory council. Applicants who are chosen as members should expect to serve 2-year terms, pursuant to the Council’s Charter. DATES: Applications are due by January 31, 2010. ADDRESSES: Application kits may be obtained from Joseph Paulin, 6600 Kalanianaole Hwy, Suite 301, Honolulu, HI 96825 or Joseph.Paulin@noaa.gov. Completed applications should be sent to the same address. Applications are also available on line at https:// hawaiihumpbackwhale.noaa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Council was established in March 1996 to assure continued public participation in the management of the sanctuary. Since its establishment, the council has played a vital role in the decisions affecting the Sanctuary surrounding the main Hawaiian Islands. The council’s seventeen voting members represent a variety of local user groups, as well as the general public. The council is supported by three committees: A Research Committee chaired by the Research Representative, an Education Committee chaired by the Education Representative, and a Conservation Committee chaired by the Conservation Representative, each respectively dealing with matters concerning research, education and resource protection. The council represents the coordination link between the sanctuary PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 and the State and Federal management agencies, user groups, researchers, educators, policy makers, and other various groups that help to focus efforts and attention on the humpback whale and its habitat around the main Hawaiian Islands. The council functions in an advisory capacity to the sanctuary management and is instrumental in helping to develop policies and program goals, and to identify education, outreach, research, long-term monitoring, resource protection and revenue enhancement priorities. The council works in concert with the sanctuary management by keeping him or her informed about issues of concern throughout the sanctuary, offering recommendations on specific issues, and aiding in achieving the goals of the sanctuary within the context of Hawaii’s marine programs and policies.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE Mr. Chuck Tracy, Salmon Management Staff Officer, Pacific Fishery Management Council; telephone: (503) 820–2280. 971 RIN: 0648–XT60 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The reauthorized MSA established new requirements to end and prevent overfishing through the use of ACLs and AMs. Federal FMPs must establish mechanisms for ACLs and AMs by 2010 for stocks subject to overfishing and by 2011 for all others, with the exceptions of stocks managed under an international agreement or stocks with a life cycle of approximately one year. On January 16, 2009, NMFS published amended guidelines for National Standard 1 (NS1) of the MSA to provide guidance on how to comply with new ACL and AM requirements. The NS1 guidelines include recommendations for establishing several related reference points to ensure scientific and management uncertainty are accounted for when management measures are established. The purpose of this meeting is to develop alternatives to address those issues, and to plan analyses that will be used to evaluate those alternatives in a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) analysis. Although non-emergency issues not contained in the meeting agenda may come before the SAC for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically listed in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under Section 305(c) of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the intent to take final action to address the emergency.
