Notice of Intent To Hold Public Forums
To Solicit Feedback From the Public
Regarding the Section 523 Mutual SelfHelp Housing Program
Rural Housing Service, USDA.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: Responding to President
Obama’s initiative for an open,
transparent government, the Rural
Housing Service, hereinafter referred to
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:52 Feb 01, 2010
Jkt 220001
as the Agency, intends to hold public
forums to solicit feedback from the
public on whether the current method
of delivering the self-help program is
the most efficient and cost effective in
terms of cost and program delivery.
Transparency encourages
accountability by delivering information
to the public about what the
Government is doing. Participation
provides the public with opportunities
to contribute ideas and expertise to the
Government which will enable them to
make sound policy decisions that
represent a wider group of diverse
individuals throughout society.
Collaboration improves effectiveness of
the Government by encouraging
partnerships and cooperation within the
Federal Government, across levels of
government, and between the
Government and private institutions.
The Agency will use information
obtained from public forums to evaluate
all aspects of the self-help program. As
the Agency moves forward, it will
continue to encourage and solicit
feedback, recommendations, and
comments from all sectors of the public.
All information relative to these forums
will be taped, transcribed, and posted to
the Agency Web site.
DATES: Public forums are scheduled for
February through June 2010. All written
questions and comments must be
received by the Agency prior to June 30,
2010. The public forums will be held in
selected states and the Washington, DC
area.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: One of the
major areas within the Section 523
Mutual Self-Help Program that the
Agency will be focusing on is the
Technical and Management Assistance
(T&MA) contracts. The contracts task
regional non-profit organizations to
provide training and technical
assistance to recipients of the Section

523 grants. These recipients, referred to
as Section 523 grantees, provide
technical assistance to low and very
low-income families to build their
homes in rural areas. In addition to
assisting the Section 523 grantees, the
contractors are also required to market
the self-help program, monitor the
progress of active Section 523 grantees,
and provide training to both grantees
and families.
The location and time of the forums
will be determined at a later date and
announced locally. Registration
information and deadlines will be
provided, at that time. In addition, this

ACTION: Notice; intent to prepare a draft

scoping; request for comments.
SUMMARY: NMFS, Southeast Region, in
collaboration with the Gulf of Mexico
Fishery Management Council (Council)
intends to prepare a DEIS to describe
and analyze management alternatives to
be included in an amendment to the
Fishery Management Plan for the Reef
Fish Resources of the Gulf of Mexico
(FMP). These alternatives will consider
measures to end overfishing of gag;
create a rebuilding plan for the gag stock
that will restore the stock to its
maximum sustainable yield level
(MSY); adjust gag and red grouper
annual catch limits (ACLs), annual
catch targets (ACTs), and other
management measures; and revise
shallow-water grouper accountability
measures (AMs). In addition, the DEIS
will consider separating the recreational

Jkt 220001
Based on
the results of the 2009 stock assessment
update, NMFS notified the Council on
August 11, 2009, that the Gulf of Mexico
(Gulf) gag stock was both overfished and
undergoing overfishing. The gag stock
has shown declines in indices of
abundance since 2005. Under the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(Magnuson-Stevens Act), within two
years of notifying the Council of a
stock’s condition, a plan must be
developed and implemented to end
overfishing and rebuild the stock.
For Gulf gag and red grouper, ACLs
must be reexamined in light of new
information on the stocks. To rebuild
the gag stock, an ACL, and optionally an
ACT, must be set at levels that will
prevent overfishing from occurring
while allowing the gag stock to rebuild
to a biomass level capable of producing
MSY in 10 years or less. Although the
2009 stock assessment update of the red
grouper stock in the Gulf of Mexico
indicated the stock continues to be
neither overfished or undergoing
overfishing, the stock has declined since
2005. The ACT currently in effect
exceeds the optimum yield level for
2010 and the acceptable biological catch
level set by the Scientific and Statistical
Committee for 2010.
In Amendment 30B, the AMs

sector of the grouper component of the
reef fish fishery, revising multi-use
individual fishing quota (IFQ) shares,
methods to reduce gag bycatch, and
improving data collection and
monitoring of the recreational sector.
The purpose of this notice of intent
(NOI) is to solicit public comments on
the scope of issues to be addressed in
the DEIS.
DATES: Written comments on the scope
of issues to be addressed in the DEIS
must be received by NMFS by March 4,
2010.
ADDRESSES: Requests for information
packets, written comments on the scope
of the DEIS, suggested alternatives and
potential impacts, and requests for
additional information on the
amendment should be sent to Peter
Hood, National Marine Fisheries
Service, Southeast Regional Office, 263

were established under a quota system
and do not reflect changes that occurred
in the commercial sector when the IFQ
system was implemented in January of
2010, including the incorporation of
tilefish into the IFQ program. In
addition, the AMs do not contain the
overage adjustment for overfished stocks
recommended by the National Standard
1 Guidelines. Therefore, the AMs for gag
and red grouper should be revisited.
Private recreational fishing vessels
and for-hire (charter and headboat)
vessels are currently combined for
management purposes into a single
recreational sector. However, if each
sector had its own ACL and ACT,
managers would have greater flexibility
in managing the sectors. The for-hire
and private recreational sectors could
potentially be given different fishing
seasons, bag limits, or other
management measures, and could
improve the net benefits of the
recreational grouper component of the
reef fish fishery.
The IFQ system implemented for the
commercial grouper and tilefish
components of the Gulf reef fish fishery
in 2010 allowed for flexibility in gag
and red grouper harvest by allowing for
multi-use shares (valid for harvesting
either red or gag grouper). However,
under the reduced red grouper and gag
annual catch limits expected to be
implemented through Amendment 32, it
is possible that the use of multi-use
shares could result in commercial
harvest of red grouper or gag exceeding
the sector allocation. To prevent this
from happening, adjustments need to be
made to the provision for multi-use
shares in the grouper individual fishing
quota system.
The reduced gag catch limits under
the initial years of the rebuilding plan
require substantial reductions in both
commercial and recreational harvest.
The commercial harvest can be reduced
through an adjustment to the
commercial quota, but the recreational
sector has no quota. Recreational catch
levels are managed primarily through a
combination of bag limits, minimum
size limits and closed seasons. A
combination of management measures
need to be adopted that will achieve the
needed reductions in the recreational
fishery.
Bycatch issues need to be addressed
in both the commercial and recreational
grouper fisheries. With the large
difference between the red grouper and
gag commercial quotas, this could result
in large numbers of gag discards as
fishermen direct effort to catch red
grouper. Specifically, ways to reduce
gag bycatch are needed in both sectors
of the fishery. Proposed measures have
