SUMMARY:
NMFS is
developing proposed revisions to the atsea scales program for C/Ps and
motherships that are required to weigh
catch at sea. NMFS is considering three
major changes to current regulations.
First, NMFS is proposing to change
regulations concerning daily scale
testing and require electronic reporting
of daily scale test results. Second, scales
used to weigh catch would need
electronics capable of logging and
printing the frequency and magnitude of
scale calibrations as well as the time
and date of each scale fault and scale
startup. Finally, NMFS is proposing to
require that the area around the scale be
monitored using video. These changes
are being proposed to reduce the
possibility of scale tampering, to
improve the accuracy of catch
estimation by the C/P and mothership
sector, and to revise technical
regulations that are no longer
applicable.
The workshop—to be held Friday,
May 16, 2014 (see DATES section for
the specific times of the three
sessions)—is open to the public, but
NMFS is particularly seeking
participation by those who are
knowledgeable about the operations of
the three groups of vessels described
above and who can discuss with NMFS
the potential operational impacts of
proposed monitoring requirements.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. National Environmental Policy Act
The National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–4347)
(NEPA) requires federal agencies to
undertake an assessment of
environmental effects of their proposed
actions prior to making a final decision
and implementing the action. NEPA
requirements apply to any federal
project, decision, or action that may
have a significant impact on the quality
of the human environment. NEPA also
establishes the Council on
Environmental Quality (CEQ), which
issued regulations implementing the
procedural provisions of NEPA as
codified in 40 CFR Parts 1500–1508.
Among other considerations, CEQ
regulations require federal agencies to
adopt their own implementing
procedures to supplement the Council’s
regulations, and to establish and use
‘‘categorical exclusions’’ to define
categories of actions that do not
individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human
environment. Thus, such actions do not
require preparation of an environmental
assessment or an environmental impact
statement as required by NEPA.
The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job
Creation Act of 2012 (Pub. L. 112–96,
126 Stat. 156 (2012)) (Act) created and
authorized FirstNet to take all actions
