If more than one docket or rulemaking number appears in the caption of this proceeding, filers must submit two additional copies for each additional docket or rulemaking number. • Filings can be sent by hand or messenger delivery, by commercial overnight courier, or by first-class or overnight U.S. Postal Service mail.

VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:20 Oct 12, 2012 Jkt 229001 • Commercial overnight mail (other than U.S. Postal Service Express Mail and Priority Mail) must be sent to 9300 East Hampton Drive, Capitol Heights, MD 20743. • U.S. Postal Service first-class, Express, and Priority mail must be addressed to 445 12th Street SW., Washington DC 20554. On our own motion, we extend the comment and reply deadlines established in the Fifth Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Fifth FNPRM) of the above-captioned proceeding. A summary of the Commission’s Fifth FNPRM is available in the Federal Register at 77 FR 45558 (August 1, 2012). In the Fifth NPRM, the Commission specified that comments are due 60 days after publication in the Federal Register, and reply comments are due 90 days after publication in the Federal Register. On August 1, 2012, the Office of the Federal Register published a summary of the Fifth FNPRM, which established a comment deadline of October 1, 2012, and a reply comment deadline of October 30, 2012. The Fifth FNPRM seeks comment on various issues relating to the 4.9 GHz band, including the relationship between the 4.9 GHz band and the 700 MHz public safety broadband network, which will be administered by the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet), a newly formed independent authority within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. We note that FirstNet is still in the initial stages of formation, and held its first public meeting on September 25, 2012. Thus, under the current comment schedule for this proceeding, FirstNet may not have sufficient time to file comments to the Fifth FNPRM by the comment deadline. Therefore, on our own motion we find that an extension of the comment and reply comment dates for the Fifth FNPRM is appropriate to provide FirstNet and other interested parties additional time to file, which in turn will enable the Commission to develop a more substantial record in this proceeding. Accordingly, we extend the comment deadline to November 1, 2012, and the reply comment deadline to November 30, 2012. Accordingly, it is ordered that, pursuant to sections 4(i), 4(j), and 5(c) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 154(j), 155(c), and pursuant to the authority delegated in Sections 0.191 and 0.392 of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 0.191, 0.392, we extend the comment and reply comment deadlines for the above proceeding as discussed herein.

ACTION: Proposed rule; request for comments. AGENCY: NMFS proposes a regulatory amendment that would modify the groundfish retention standard (GRS) program in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) management area by removing certain regulatory requirements mandating minimum levels of groundfish retention and adding requirements for annual reports on groundfish retention performance. The GRS program was implemented to increase the retention and utilization of groundfish caught by trawl catcher/ processor (C/P) vessels not listed in the American Fisheries Act (AFA), referred to as Amendment 80 vessels, and Amendment 80 cooperatives participating in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands groundfish fisheries. NMFS has discovered that the regulatory methodology used to calculate compliance with the GRS requires individual Amendment 80 vessels and Amendment 80 cooperatives to retain groundfish at minimum rates well above the minimum rates recommended by the Council or implemented by NMFS. As a result, the GRS is expected to impose significantly higher than predicted compliance costs on vessel owners and operators due to the increased level of retention needed to meet the minimum retention rates. Additionally, NMFS has discovered that enforcement of the GRS has proven far more complex, challenging, and potentially costly than anticipated by NMFS. This proposed rule would relieve non-AFA trawl C/Ps and Amendment 80 cooperatives from undue compliance costs stemming from the mandatory GRS rates, but continue the GRS program goals of increased retention and utilization by establishing additional reporting requirements on groundfish retention performance together with current monitoring SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00017 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4702 requirements for the Amendment 80 fleet.
