determination that 714 general category
scallop trips into the Delmarva Access

hours, January 29, 2011. This action is
being taken to prevent the allocation of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulations governing fishing activity in
the Sea Scallop Access Areas are found
at §§ 648.59 and 648.60. These
regulations authorize vessels issued a
valid LAGC IFQ scallop permit to fish
in the Delmarva Scallop Access Area
under specific conditions, including a
total of 714 trips that may be taken by
LAGC IFQ vessels during the 2010
fishing year. The regulations at
§ 648.59(a)(3)(ii) require the Delmarva
Scallop Access Area to be closed to
LAGC IFQ vessels once the Northeast
Regional Administrator has determined
that the allowed number of trips are
projected to be taken.
Based on trip declarations by LAGC
IFQ scallop vessels fishing in the
Delmarva Scallop Access Area, and
analysis of fishing effort, a projection
concluded that 714 trips will have been
taken on January 29, 2011. Therefore, in
accordance with the regulations at
§ 648.59(a)(3)(ii), the Delmarva Scallop
Access Area is closed to all LAGC IFQ
VerDate Mar<15>2010

scallop vessels as of January 29, 2011.
Therefore, as of this effective date, no
scallop vessel fishing under LAGC IFQ
regulations may declare its intent to
enter, or fish in the Delmarva Scallop
Access Area. Any vessel that has
declared into the LAGC IFQ Delmarva
Access Area scallop fishery, complied
with all trip notification and observer
requirements, and crossed the VMS
demarcation line on the way to the area,
may complete the trip. This closure is
in effect for the remainder of the 2010
scallop fishing year under current
regulations.
Classification
This action is required by 50 CFR part
648 and is exempt from review under
Executive Order 12866.
This action closes the Delmarva
Scallop Access Area to all LAGC IFQ
category scallop vessels for the
remainder of the 2010 fishing year. The
regulations at § 648.59(e)(4)(ii) require
such action to ensure that LAGC IFQ
scallop vessels do not take more than
their allocated number of trips in the
Delmarva Scallop Access Area. The
Delamarva Scallop Access Area opened
for the 2010 fishing year at 0001 hours
on March 1, 2010. Data indicating the
LAGC IFQ scallop fleet has taken all of
the Delmarva Scallop Access Area trips
have only recently become available. To

allow LAGC IFQ scallop vessels to
continue to take trips in the Delmarva
Scallop Access Area during the period
necessary to publish and receive
comments on a proposed rule would
result in vessels taking much more than
the allowed number of trips in the
Delmarva Scallop Access Area.
Excessive trips and harvest from the
Delmarva Scallop Access Area would
result in excessive fishing effort in the
Delmarva Scallop Access Area, where
effort controls are critical, thereby
undermining conservation objectives of
the FMP. Should excessive effort occur
in the Delmarva Scallop Access Area,
future management measures would
need to be more restrictive. Based on the
above, under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3),
proposed rulemaking is waived because
it would be impracticable and contrary
to the public interest to allow a period
for public comment.
Furthermore, for the same reasons,
there is good cause under 5 U.S.C.
553(d)(3) to waive the 30-day delayed
effectiveness period for this action.

The regulations at Sec. 648.59(e)(4)(ii) require such action to ensure
