The Notice of Proposed Rule Making also included an Order to Show Cause directed to the licensee of Station WFLQ(FM), French Lick, Indiana, to show cause why its license should not be modified to specify operation on Channel 229A in lieu of Channel 261A. See 73 FR 50296, published August 26, 2008. Although Station WFLQ(FM) argued that it should not be required to change channels, the Report and Order found that the station had not raised a substantial and material question of fact that would warrant a hearing on this issue. The document also states that the ultimate permittee of Channel 261A at Irvington, Kentucky, will be required to reimburse Station WFLQ(FM), French Lick, Indiana, for its reasonable and prudent costs associated with the involuntary channel change at French Lick. The reference coordinates for Channel 261A at Irvington are 37–56–52 NL and 86–24–54 WL. The reference coordinates for Channel 229A at French Lick are 38–35–41 NL and 86–36–48 WL. Finally, because Station WFLQ(FM) is a licensed station, the channel substitution at French Lick will be updated in the Commission’s Consolidated Data Base System [CDBS]. This document does not contain new or modified information collection requirements subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), Public Law 104–13. In addition, therefore, it does not contain any new or modified information collection burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees, pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4).

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment. SUMMARY: This rule amends general provisions for domestic fisheries in the western Pacific to correct errors that resulted from two recent rules. This action is necessary to remedy missing information, out of date administrative references, and a misspelling. DATES: Effective March 3, 2010. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bob Harman, Pacific Islands Region, NMFS, 808 944–2271. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 21, 2008, NMFS published in the Federal Register a final rule (73 FR 70600) designating three species of pelagic squid as management unit species under the Fishery Management Plan for Pelagic Species of the Western PO 00000 Frm 00017 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 9531 Pacific Region (FMP). That rule also established permitting and reporting requirements, and authorization for NMFS to place observers on squid fishing vessels. This final rule was effective December 22, 2008, except for the collection-of-information requirements, which were effective October 5, 2009 (74 FR 45756, September 4, 2009). The final rule that included squid jig fishing in the FMP inadvertently omitted an instruction to revise the table of authorized fishing gear at 50 CFR 600.725(v). The rule established squid as management unit species in the definition of western Pacific pelagic management unit species (50 CFR 665.800). The rule authorized squid jig fishing (50 CFR 665.801(g)), and defined squid jig gear (50 CFR 665.800). The rule also set restrictions on the use of squid jig gear (50 CFR 665.14(b), 665.808, and 665.802(zz)). By these actions, squid jig gear and fishing are authorized and managed. However, the rule did not include this authorized fishing gear in the table at 50 CFR 600.725(v), which provides a complete list of all authorized fishing gear in the FEPs. The rule should have added an entry to include squid jig as an authorized gear in the squid jig fishery in item 7 (western Pacific pelagic fisheries in the FMP) of section VIII (fisheries under the jurisdiction of the Western Pacific Fishery Management Council) in that table. This final rule corrects that error, and no substantive changes are made to the regulations. Additionally, on January 14, 2010, NMFS published in the Federal Register a final rule (75 FR 2198) restructuring western Pacific fishery regulations at 50 CFR part 665 to be consistent with five new area-specific fishery ecosystem plans (FEP). The FEPs were established as FMPs, consistent with the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. In that rule, no substantive changes were made to the regulations. NMFS also restructured western Pacific regulations to be consistent with the area-specific organization of the FEPs, and changed administrative references in western Pacific regulations from ‘‘FMP’’ to ‘‘FEP.’’ That final rule was effective February 16, 2010. That final rule inadvertently omitted an instruction to revise the table of authorized fishing gear at 600.725(v) to change references from ‘‘FMP’’ to ‘‘FEP’’ in section VIII (fisheries under the jurisdiction of the Western Pacific Fishery Management Council). This final rule corrects those administrative references; no substantive changes are made to the regulations.

Because notice and opportunity for comment are not required pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other law, the analytical requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act are inapplicable. Therefore, a final regulatory flexibility analysis is not required and one has not been prepared. This rule is exempt from review under Executive Order 12866. This rule also corrects the spelling of the word ‘‘fishery,’’ which was misspelled as ‘‘fisher’’ in item 7.A of section VIII of the table.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS manages the groundfish fishery in the GOA exclusive economic zone according to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska (FMP) prepared by the North Pacific Fishery Management Council under authority of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. Regulations governing fishing by U.S. vessels in accordance with the FMP appear at subpart H of 50 CFR part 600 and 50 CFR part 679. NMFS closed directed fishing for pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA under § 679.20(d)(1)(iii) on February 5, 2010 (75 FR 6589 February 10, 2010). As of February 24, 2010, NMFS has determined that approximately 3,659 metric tons of pollock remain in the directed fishing allowance for pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA. Therefore, in accordance with § 679.25(a)(1)(i), (a)(2)(i)(C), and (a)(2)(iii)(D), and to fully utilize the A season allowance of the 2010 TAC of pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA, NMFS is terminating the previous closure and is reopening directed fishing pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA. The Administrator, Alaska Region (Regional Administrator) considered the following factors in reaching this decision: (1) the current catch of pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA and, (2) the harvest capacity and stated intent on future harvesting patterns of vessels in participating in this fishery. In accordance with § 679.20(d)(1)(iii), the Regional Administrator finds that this directed fishing allowance will be reached after 48 hours. Consequently, NMFS is prohibiting directed fishing for pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA effective 1200 hrs, A.l.t., March 2, 2010. Classification This action responds to the best available information recently obtained from the fishery. The Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA (AA), finds good cause to waive the requirement to provide prior notice and opportunity for public comment pursuant to the authority set forth at 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as such requirement is impracticable and contrary to the public PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 interest. This requirement is impracticable and contrary to the public interest as it would prevent NMFS from responding to the most recent fisheries data in a timely fashion and would delay the opening of pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA. NMFS was unable to publish a notice providing time for public comment because the most recent, relevant data only became available as of February 24, 2010. The AA also finds good cause to waive the 30–day delay in the effective date of this action under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3). This finding is based upon the reasons provided above for waiver of prior notice and opportunity for public comment. Without this inseason adjustment, NMFS could not allow the fishery for pollock in Statistical Area 630 of the GOA to be harvested in an expedient manner and in accordance with the regulatory schedule. Under § 679.25(c)(2), interested persons are invited to submit written comments on this action to the above address until March 15, 2010. This action is required by § 679.20 and § 679.25 and is exempt from review under Executive Order 12866. Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq. Dated: February 25, 2010. James P.

Magnuson-Stevens Act Provisions; Correction

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule; correcting amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This rule amends general provisions for domestic fisheries in 
the western Pacific to correct errors that resulted from two recent 
rules. This action is necessary to remedy missing information, out of 
date administrative references, and a misspelling.

DATES: Effective March 3, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bob Harman, Pacific Islands Region, 
NMFS, 808 944-2271.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 21, 2008, NMFS published in the 
Federal Register a final rule (73 FR 70600) designating three species 
of pelagic squid as management unit species under the Fishery 
Management Plan for Pelagic Species of the Western Pacific Region 
(FMP). That rule also established permitting and reporting 
requirements, and authorization for NMFS to place observers on squid 
fishing vessels. This final rule was effective December 22, 2008, 
except for the collection-of-information requirements, which were 
effective October 5, 2009 (74 FR 45756, September 4, 2009).
    The final rule that included squid jig fishing in the FMP 
inadvertently omitted an instruction to revise the table of authorized 
fishing gear at 50 CFR 600.725(v). The rule established squid as 
management unit species in the definition of western Pacific pelagic 
management unit species (50 CFR 665.800). The rule authorized squid jig 
fishing (50 CFR 665.801(g)), and defined squid jig gear (50 CFR 
665.800). The rule also set restrictions on the use of squid jig gear 
(50 CFR 665.14(b), 665.808, and 665.802(zz)). By these actions, squid 
jig gear and fishing are authorized and managed. However, the rule did 
not include this authorized fishing gear in the table at 50 CFR 
600.725(v), which provides a complete list of all authorized fishing 
gear in the FEPs. The rule should have added an entry to include squid 
jig as an authorized gear in the squid jig fishery in item 7 (western 
Pacific pelagic fisheries in the FMP) of section VIII (fisheries under 
the jurisdiction of the Western Pacific Fishery Management Council) in 
that table. This final rule corrects that error, and no substantive 
changes are made to the regulations.
    Additionally, on January 14, 2010, NMFS published in the Federal 
Register a final rule (75 FR 2198) restructuring western Pacific 
fishery regulations at 50 CFR part 665 to be consistent with five new 
area-specific fishery ecosystem plans (FEP). The FEPs were established 
as FMPs, consistent with the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and 
Management Act. In that rule, no substantive changes were made to the 
regulations. NMFS also restructured western Pacific regulations to be 
consistent with the area-specific organization of the FEPs, and changed 
administrative references in western Pacific regulations from ``FMP'' 
to ``FEP.'' That final rule was effective February 16, 2010.
    That final rule inadvertently omitted an instruction to revise the 
table of authorized fishing gear at 600.725(v) to change references 
from ``FMP'' to ``FEP'' in section VIII (fisheries under the 
jurisdiction of the Western Pacific Fishery Management Council). This 
final rule corrects those administrative references; no substantive 
changes are made to the regulations.

[[Page 9532]]

    This rule also corrects the spelling of the word ``fishery,'' which 
was misspelled as ``fisher'' in item 7.A of section VIII of the table.

Classification

    Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the Assistant Administrator for 
Fisheries, NOAA, (AA) finds good cause to waive prior notice and 
opportunity for public comment, as such notice and comment would be 
unnecessary. These procedures are unnecessary because the regulations 
were subject to notice and comment when originally implemented, and no 
substantive changes are being made pursuant to this final rule. The 
only actions currently being taken are to remedy missing or incorrect 
administrative information. Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(d), the 30-day 
delay in effectiveness does not apply to this rule because it is not a 
substantive rule.
    Because notice and opportunity for comment are not required 
pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other law, the analytical requirements 
of the Regulatory Flexibility Act are inapplicable. Therefore, a final 
regulatory flexibility analysis is not required and one has not been 
prepared. This rule is exempt from review under Executive Order 12866.
