ACTION:
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 5 / Friday, January 8, 2010 / Rules and Regulations
Final rule.
SUMMARY: NMFS is modifying the
Northeast (NE) Region experimental
fishing regulations to authorize the
NMFS NE Regional Administrator (RA),
or the RA’s designee, to issue a Letter
of Authorization (LOA) to eligible
researchers on board federally permitted
fishing vessels that plan to temporarily
possess fish in a manner not compliant
with applicable fishing regulations for
the purpose of collecting scientific data
on catch.
DATES: This final rule is effective on
February 8, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the Regulatory
Impact Review (RIR) are available upon
request from Patricia A. Kurkul,
Regional Administrator, NMFS, NE
Regional Office, 55 Great Republic
Drive, Gloucester, MA 01930.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Ryan Silva, Cooperative Research
Liaison, phone (978) 281–9326, fax
(978) 281–9135.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This final
rule revises portions of the NE Region
experimental fishing regulations to
authorize the NMFS NE Regional
Administrator (RA), or the RA’s
designee, to issue a Letter of
Authorization (LOA) to eligible
researchers on board federally permitted
fishing vessels that plan to temporarily
possess fish in a manner not compliant
with applicable fishing regulations for
the purpose of collecting scientific data
on catch (temporary possession LOA).
NE Region fishing regulations at 50
CFR part 648 implement management
measures for fisheries operating under
15 fishery management plans (FMPs).
These regulations include minimum
fish sizes, fish possession limits, and
various spatial and temporal fish
possession restrictions such as quota
and area closures. Federally permitted
fishing vessels that carry research
personnel during commercial fishing
trips for the purpose of collecting catch
data before discarding restricted fish are
currently required to obtain an EFP in
order to conduct their sampling work.
The requirement to obtain an EFP prior
to conducting these types of sampling
activities on commercial fishing vessels
has raised several issues and concerns
within the scientific community, the
Regional Fishery Management Councils,
and among NMFS Regional Office and
Science Center staff. Due to the time
necessary to request and obtain an EFP,
these temporary possession EFPs can
inhibit the ability of fishery researchers
to opportunistically accompany
commercial fishing vessels for the
purpose of data collection. This has
VerDate Nov<24>2008
18:43 Jan 07, 2010
Jkt 220001
resulted in the delay and lost
opportunity to conduct important
fishery research, which negatively
affects cooperative research efforts and
increases the cost of data collection. In
addition, the administrative burden on
NMFS from processing and overseeing
these routine EFPs is substantial.
To mitigate these concerns, this final
rule authorizes the RA, or the RA’s
designee, to issue an LOA to eligible
researchers on board federally permitted
fishing vessels that plan to temporarily
possess for the purpose of collecting
scientific data on fish that could
otherwise not be retained under
applicable fishing regulations. The RA
will determine whether the applicant
and participating vessels meet the
eligibility criteria prior to issuing or
denying a temporary possession LOA
application.
NMFS will maintain discretion over
the vessels and researchers that are
issued temporary exemption LOAs. To
ensure effective oversight, eligible
vessels will need to meet the
requirements described below, and EFP
oversight policies will apply to all
vessels issued a temporary possession
LOA. Any additional exemptions
beyond temporary possession would
need to be obtained through the
standard EFP process.
Only personnel from the following
bodies will be eligible for a temporary
possession LOA: Foreign government
agency; U.S. Government agency; U.S.
state or territorial agency; university (or
other educational institution accredited
by a recognized national or international
accreditation body); international treaty
organization; or scientific institution.
To obtain a temporary possession
LOA, an eligible applicant will be
required to submit a complete
application, similar to an EFP
application, which contains the
following information: The date of the
application; the applicant’s name,
mailing address, and telephone number;
a statement of the purposes and goals
for which the LOA is needed; the
name(s) and affiliation of the fishery
research technicians that will be
collecting the data; a statement
demonstrating the qualifications of the
research technician that will be
collecting the data; the species (target
and incidental) expected to be harvested
under the LOA; the disposition of all
regulated species harvested under the
LOA; the approximate time(s) and
place(s) fishing will take place; the type,
size, and amount of gear to be used; and
the signature of the applicant. In
addition, for each vessel to be covered
by the LOA, as soon as the information
is available and before operations begin,
PO 00000
Frm 00006

the applicant will be required to supply
the vessel operator name, the vessel’s
Federal fishing permit number, and the
vessel registration or documentation
number.
Comments and Responses
Comment 1: There was one comment
submitted in response to this proposed
rulemaking that expressed support for
reducing the administrative burden of
EFPs on cooperative research projects in
general.
Response: NMFS concurs that this
rule will reduce the administrative
burden of EFPs on cooperative research
program.
Classification
Pursuant to section 305(d) of the
Magnuson-Stevens Act, the NMFS
Assistant Administrator determined that
this rule is consistent with the Fishery
Management Plans (FMPs) of the NE
Region, other provisions of the
Magnuson-Stevens Act, and other
applicable law, and is necessary to
discharge the general responsibility to
carry out said FMPs.
This final rule has been determined to
be not significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12866.
The Chief Counsel for Regulation of
the Department of Commerce certified
to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the
Small Business Administration during
the proposed rule stage that this action
would not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities. The factual basis for the
certification was published in the
proposed rule and is not repeated here.
No comments were received regarding
this certification. As a result, a
regulatory flexibility analysis was not
required and none was prepared.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final
rule published on December 10, 2009,
and effective January 11, 2010 (74 FR
65480), revised annual interaction limits
for sea turtles, among other actions.
The amendatory instructions that are
the subject of this correction refer to
§ 665.33 in Title 50 of the CFR. In the
amendatory instructions in the
published final rule (74 FR 65480),
instruction 7 revised 50 CFR 665.33(b),
relating to the annual limits on sea
turtle interactions. The instruction
inadvertently omitted paragraph
designation ‘‘(b)(1)’’ relating specifically
to the interaction limits. Because of the
error, paragraph (b)(2), relating to the
process for closing the fishery if a sea
turtle interaction limit is reached,
would be inadvertently deleted when
this rule is made effective on January
11, 2010, if not corrected.
This correction makes one change to
the amendatory instructions to
accurately reflect effective CFR parts as
of January 11, 2010. In the amendatory
instruction for § 665.33, the phrase,
’’...and revise paragraphs (b) and (f) to
read as follows:’’, is revised to read
’’...and revise paragraphs (b)(1) and (f) to
read as follows:’’.
Correction
Accordingly, in the final rule (FR Doc.
No. E9-29444) published on December
10, 2009 (74 FR 65480), on page 65480,
column 1, amendatory instruction
number 7 is revised to read as follows:
§ 665.33 [Amended]
7. In § 665.33, remove and reserve
paragraphs (a), (c), and (e), and revise
paragraphs (b)(1) and (f) to read as
