television stations to make changes in
their authorized facilities. Specifically,
Class A stations assigned to a new
channel following the Incentive Auction
must file a minor change application on
FCC Form 2100, Schedule E following
release of the Channel Reassignment
Public Notice. Under certain
circumstances, licensees of stations
reassigned to a new channel within
their existing band to propose
transmission facilities in their
construction permit applications that
will extend their coverage contours. In
addition, there will be a priority
processing window for licensees of
reassigned stations, UHF-to-VHF
stations, or High-VHF-to-Low-VHF
stations that, for reasons beyond their
control, are unable to construct facilities
that meet the technical parameters
specified in the Channel Reassignment
Public Notice, or the permissible
contour coverage variance from those
technical parameters specified in
section 73.3700(b)(1)(ii) or (iii). Channel
sharee stations file a minor change
application for a construction permit for
the channel on which the channel
sharer operates at least sixty (60) days
prior to the date by which it must
terminate operations on its pre-auction
channel and must include a copy of the
channel sharing agreement. In addition,
subject to limitations set out in the
rules, a Class A licensee of a reassigned
station, a UHF-to-VHF station, or a
High-VHF-to-Low-VHF station may file
a minor change application for a
construction permit on FCC Form 2100
Schedule E during a filing window to be

Commercial Accountability Measure
and Closure for Coastal Migratory
Pelagic Resources of the Gulf of
Mexico and South Atlantic
National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
ACTION: Temporary rule; closure.
AGENCY:
NMFS implements an
accountability measure (AM) to close
the hook-and-line component of the
commercial sector for king mackerel in
the Florida west coast southern
subzone. This closure is necessary to
protect the Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) king
mackerel resource.
DATES: This rule is effective 12:01 a.m.,
local time, March 27, 2016, through
June 30, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Susan Gerhart, NMFS Southeast
Regional Office, telephone: 727–824–
5305, email: susan.gerhart@noaa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
fishery for coastal migratory pelagic fish
includes king mackerel, Spanish
mackerel, and cobia, and is managed
under the Fishery Management Plan for
the Coastal Migratory Pelagic Resources
of the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic
Region (FMP). The FMP was prepared
by the Gulf of Mexico and South
Atlantic Fishery Management Councils
(Councils) and is implemented by
NMFS under the authority of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(Magnuson-Stevens Act) by regulations
at 50 CFR part 622.
The Gulf migratory group king
mackerel is divided into western and
eastern zones. The Gulf’s eastern zone
for king mackerel is further divided into
the Florida west coast northern and
southern subzones that have separate
commercial quotas. The 2015 to 2016
fishing year quota for the hook-and-line
component of the commercial sector in
the Florida west coast southern subzone
Lhorne on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with RULES
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
14:39 Mar 25, 2016
Jkt 238001
is 551,448 lb (250,133 kg) (50 CFR
622.384(b)(1)(i)(B)(1)).
From November 1 through March 31,
the southern subzone encompasses an
area of the exclusive economic zone
(EEZ) south of a line extending due west
from the Lee and Collier County,
Florida, boundary on the Florida west
coast, and south of a line extending due
east from the Monroe and Miami-Dade
County, Florida, boundary on the
Florida east coast, which includes the
EEZ off Collier and Monroe Counties,
Florida. From April 1 through October
31, the southern subzone is reduced to
the EEZ off Collier County, and the EEZ
off Monroe County becomes part of the
Atlantic migratory group area.
Under 50 CFR 622.8(b) and
622.388(a)(1), NMFS is required to close
any component of the king mackerel
commercial sector when its quota has
been reached, or is projected to be
reached, by filing a notification at the
Office of the Federal Register. NMFS has
determined the commercial quota for
the hook-and-line component of the
commercial sector for Gulf migratory
group king mackerel in the southern
Florida west coast subzone will be
reached by March 27, 2016.
Accordingly, the hook-and-line
component of the commercial sector for
Gulf migratory group king mackerel in
the Florida west coast southern subzone
is closed effective 12:01 a.m., local time,
March 27, 2016, through the end of the
fishing year on June 30, 2016.
On March 11, 2016, NMFS also closed
the Florida west coast southern subzone
to commercial harvest of king mackerel
caught by run around gillnet gear,
because the quota for that sector was
reached (81 FR 12826, March 11, 2016).
Therefore, during the closures no person
aboard a vessel for which a valid
commercial permit for king mackerel
has been issued may harvest or possess
Gulf migratory group king mackerel in
or from Federal waters of the closed
subzone, as specified in 50 CFR
622.384(e). However, there is one
exception. A person aboard a vessel that
has a valid Federal charter vessel/
headboat permit and also has a
commercial king mackerel permit for
coastal migratory pelagic fish may
continue to retain king mackerel in or
from the closed subzone under the 2fish daily recreational bag limit,
provided the vessel is operating as a
charter vessel or headboat. Charter
vessels or headboats that have a valid
commercial king mackerel permit are
considered to be operating as a charter
vessel or headboat when they carry a
passenger who pays a fee or when more
than three persons are aboard, including
operator and crew.

Classification
The Regional Administrator, NMFS
Southeast Region, has determined this
temporary rule is necessary for the
conservation and management of Gulf
migratory group king mackerel and is
consistent with the Magnuson-Stevens
Act and other applicable laws.
This action is taken under 50 CFR
622.8(b) and 622.388(a)(1) and is
exempt from review under Executive
Order 12866.
These measures are exempt from the
procedures of the Regulatory Flexibility
Act because the temporary rule is issued
without opportunity for prior notice and
comment.
This action responds to the best
scientific information available. The
Assistant Administrator for NOAA
Fisheries (AA), finds that the need to
immediately implement this action
constitutes good cause to waive the
requirements to provide prior notice
and opportunity for public comment
pursuant to the authority set forth in 5
U.S.C. 553(b)(B), as such prior notice
and opportunity for public comment on
this temporary rule are unnecessary and
contrary to the public interest. Such
procedures are unnecessary because the
regulations at 50 CFR 622.8(b) and
622.388(a)(1) have already been subject
to notice and comment, and all that
remains is to notify the public of the
closure. Such procedures are contrary to
the public interest, because there is a
need to immediately implement this
action to protect the king mackerel
resource since the capacity of the
fishing fleet allows for rapid harvest of
the commercial quota. Prior notice and
opportunity for public comment on this
action would require time and would
potentially result in a harvest well in
excess of the established commercial
quota.
For the aforementioned reasons, the
AA also finds good cause to waive the
30-day delay in effectiveness of the
action under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
