Action: Revised Collections of

Respondents: Business or other for
profit, and not for profit institutions.
Frequency of Responses: As needed
and ongoing.
Necessity of the Information: To
protect ratepayers and to mitigate
possible adverse effects on rates that
may result from mergers or certain other
transactions that are subject to section
203 of the FPA, we propose
clarifications and additional
information collection requirements
related to hold harmless commitments
offered by applicants.
Internal review: The Commission has
reviewed the changes included in the
Proposed Policy Statement and has
determined that the additional reporting
and recordkeeping requirements are
necessary.
Interested persons may obtain
information on the reporting
requirements by contacting: Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
63 The hourly cost figures are based on data for
salary plus benefits. We think industry is similarly
situated to FERC in terms of the average cost of a
full time employee, and we are using $70.50 per
hour for salary plus benefits.
The estimates for cost per response are derived
using the following formula: Average Burden Hours
per Response * $70.50 per Hour = Average Cost per
Response.
64 We estimate that one FPA section 205 filing
may be made annually subject to the Proposed
Policy Statement.

ACTION: Proposed rule; request for
comments.
AGENCY:
NMFS proposes to implement
management measures described in a
framework action to the Fishery
Management Plan for the Reef Fish
Resources of the Gulf of Mexico (FMP),
as prepared by the Gulf of Mexico
Fishery Management Council (Council).
If implemented, this rule would revise
the daily bag limit for red grouper in the
Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) and remove the
recreational post-season bag-limit
reduction accountability measure (AM)
for Gulf red grouper. Additionally, this
rule would correct an error in the Gulf
individual fishing quota (IFQ) multi-use
provisions for the Grouper/Tilefish IFQ
program. The purpose of this rule is to
modify the Gulf red grouper recreational
management measures to improve
recreational fishing opportunities by
achieving optimal yield for the red
grouper resource.
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before February 26, 2015.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments
on the proposed rule, identified by
‘‘NOAA–NMFS–2014–0153’’ by any of
the following methods:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf
reef fish fishery is managed under the
FMP. The FMP was prepared by the
Council and is implemented through
regulations at 50 CFR part 622 under the
authority of the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act).
Background
In April 2014, NMFS announced that
the Gulf red grouper recreational annual
catch limit (ACL) was exceeded in 2013.
In accordance with recreational AMs
adopted in Amendment 32 to the FMP
(77 FR 6988, February 10, 2012), this
triggered a reduction in the bag limit in
2014 from four fish to three fish, and a
recreational closure was implemented
on October 4, 2014, to ensure that
landings did not exceed the recreational
annual catch target (ACT). In response
to the in-season recreational closure, the
Council, at its June 2014 meeting,
directed staff to begin development of a
framework action to potentially reduce
the recreational bag limit, and adjust the
recreational AMs in an effort to extend
the red grouper recreational fishing
season.
Prior to implementation of
Amendment 32 to the FMP, the red
grouper recreational allocation had not
PO 00000
Frm 00014
Fmt 4702
Sfmt 4702
been met in recent years. The red
grouper recreational allocation of the
total allowable catch (TAC) was initially
set at 1.25 million lb (0.567 million kg),
gutted weight, in 2004, was increased to
1.82 million lb (0.826 million kg), gutted
weight, in 2009, and was then reduced
to 1.36 million lb (0.617 million kg),
gutted weight, in 2011. In 2012,
Amendment 32 to the FMP replaced the
red grouper TAC with an ACL and ACT,
and management measures intended to
allow harvest to achieve the ACT. The
red grouper recreational ACL and ACT
were set for 2012 and beyond at 1.9
million lb (0.862 million kg), gutted
weight, and 1.73 million lb (0.785
million kg), gutted weight, respectively.
Also in 2012, the red grouper bag limit
was increased from two fish to four fish
per person, under the four-fish aggregate
grouper bag limit, to allow the
recreational sector to fully harvest its
allocation and achieve optimum yield.
The post-season AM that was
implemented in 2012, was a reduction
in the bag limit by one fish, if at the end
of any season, NMFS determined that
the recreational sector has exceeded its
red grouper ACL. Therefore, the bag
limit would be reduced to three fish in
the following season, and could be
reduced to two fish the season after that,
if the ACL was again exceeded. The bag
limit would not be reduced below two
fish.
Management Measures Contained in
This Proposed Rule
This rule would reduce the Gulf red
grouper recreational bag limit from four
fish to two fish within the four-fish
aggregate grouper bag limit, and remove
the post-season AM that reduces the
daily bag limit the next fishing season
when the previous fishing year’s ACL is
exceeded. The other post-season AMs
currently codified in the regulations
would remain in effect without change.
The first post-season AM currently
codified in the regulations applies
regardless of whether red grouper are
overfished and requires that NMFS will
publish a notification to reduce the
length of the recreational red grouper
fishing season the following fishing year
by the amount necessary to ensure red
grouper recreational landings do not
exceed the recreational ACT. The
second post-season AM currently
codified in the regulations applies if red
grouper are overfished, and requires
NMFS to reduce the recreational ACL
and recreational ACT the following
fishing year by the prior fishing year’s
recreational ACL overage.
