dealers have been prohibited from
receiving, purchasing, trading, or
bartering for Atlantic sharks unless a
valid Atlantic Shark Identification
Workshop certificate is on the premises
of each business listed under the shark
dealer permit which first receives
Atlantic sharks (71 FR 58057; October 2,

which first receives Atlantic sharks.
Only one certificate will be issued to
