FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Moira Kelly, Fishery Policy Analyst, (978) 281–9218. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: General Specification Background The Mid-Atlantic Fishery Management Council (Council) and the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (Commission) cooperatively manage the summer flounder, scup, and black sea bass fisheries. Fishery specifications in these fisheries include various catch and landing subdivisions, such as the commercial and recreational sector annual catch limits (ACLs), annual catch targets (ACTs), sector-specific landing limits (i.e., the commercial fishery quota and recreational harvest limit (RHL)), and research set-aside (RSA) established for the upcoming fishing year. An explanation of each subdivision appears later in this rule. Rulemaking for measures used to manage the recreational fisheries for these three species occurs separately and typically takes place in the first quarter of the fishing year. The Summer Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass Fishery Management Plan (FMP) and its implementing regulations establish the Council’s process for establishing specifications. All requirements of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act), including the 10 national standards, also apply to specifications. The management units specified in the FMP include summer flounder (Paralichthys dentatus) in U.S. waters of the Atlantic Ocean from the southern border of North Carolina northward to E:\FR\FM\16NOP1.SGM 16NOP1

Technical Symposium

    The purpose of the technical symposium is to facilitate discussion 
on technical issues associated with the electronic submission of data 
to the Crossing Inventory. The meeting is not intended as a forum for

(Electronic Submission Instructions) referenced in the NPRM (and 
available in the docket at FRA-2011-0007-0005), proposed options for

Inventory. In order to facilitate discussion at the technical 
symposium, FRA intends to supplement the docket with revised draft 
Electronic Submission Instructions prior to the symposium. The revised 
draft Electronic Submission Instructions will contain information on 
the proposed file formats and data specifications that would need to be 
followed when preparing electronic crossing data for submission to the 
Crossing Inventory. Therefore, interested parties are advised to
