FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jason Berthiaume, Fishery Management Specialist, phone: (978) 281–9177, or Jason.Berthiaume@noaa.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background In 2005, at the request of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) closed an area of Federal waters off the coasts of New Hampshire and Massachusetts to fishing for bivalve shellfish due to the presence in those waters of the toxins that cause paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP). Shellfish contaminated with the toxin, if eaten in large enough quantity, can cause illness or death from PSP. The closure was modified a number of times from 2005–2008, and the remaining closure was subsequently extended from 2008 until 2013. Beginning in 2014, the closure also included a prohibition on the harvest of gastropods. Recently, NMFS, the FDA, the clam industry, and the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (DMF) investigated whether this closure is still warranted, and on May 19, 2014, the FDA sent NMFS a letter requesting that we reopen the area known as the Northern Temporary Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning (PSP) Closed Area for bivalve harvesting. This request is based on the premise that the area has not been subject to a toxic algal bloom for several years and testing of bivalve shellfish has demonstrated toxin levels well below those known to cause human illness. In addition, the FDA has developed an agreement with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to conduct PSP monitoring of bivalves from the area in accordance with currently accepted PSP testing procedures. If the closure is lifted, DMF would test the reopened waters, and if the results yield samples that exceed the threshold for public safety, DMF would inform us to that effect, and we would work with the FDA to reinstate the closure. If this action is implemented, NMFS would reopen the area referred to as the Northern Temporary PSP Closed Area for bivalve harvesting. This includes the fisheries for Atlantic surfclam and ocean E:\FR\FM\07JYP1.SGM 07JYP1
