Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 95 / Thursday, May 18, 2017 / Rules and Regulations
informs the CIS provider that it does not
wish to receive 911 calls from the CIS
provider.
9. Section 20.23 is added to read as
follows:
■
[Docket No. 161017970–6999–02]
RIN 0648–XF408
(a) Good faith negotiations. CMRS
licensees must negotiate in good faith
with entities seeking to deploy a
Contraband Interdiction System (CIS) in
a correctional facility. Upon receipt of a
good faith request by an entity seeking
to deploy a CIS in a correctional facility,
a CMRS licensee must negotiate toward
a lease agreement. If, after a 45 day
period, there is no agreement, CIS
providers seeking Special Temporary
Authority (STA) to operate in the
absence of CMRS licensee consent may
file a request for STA with the Wireless
Telecommunications Bureau (WTB),
accompanied by evidence
demonstrating its good faith, and the
unreasonableness of the CMRS
licensee’s actions, in negotiating an
agreement. The request must be served
on the CMRS licensee no later than the
filing of the STA request, and the CMRS
licensee may file a response with WTB,
with a copy served on the CIS provider
at that time, within 10 days of the filing
of the STA request. If WTB determines
that the CIS provider has negotiated in
good faith, yet the CMRS licensee has
not negotiated in good faith, WTB may
issue STA to the entity seeking to
deploy the CIS, notwithstanding lack of
accompanying CMRS licensee consent.

ACTION: Temporary rule; quota transfer.
AGENCY:
NMFS announces that the
State of North Carolina is transferring a
portion of its 2017 commercial summer
flounder quota to the Commonwealth of
Virginia. This quota adjustment is
necessary to comply with the Summer
Flounder, Scup, and Black Sea Bass

DATES: Effective May 15, 2017, through

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Cynthia Hanson, Fishery Management
Specialist, (978) 281–9180.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Regulations governing the summer
flounder fishery are found in 50 CFR
648.100 through 648.110. These
regulations require annual specification
of a commercial quota that is
apportioned among the coastal states
from Maine through North Carolina. The
process to set the annual commercial
quota and the percent allocated to each
state is described in § 648.102, and the
initial 2017 allocations were published
on December 22, 2016 (81 FR 93842).

The final rule implementing
Amendment 5 to the Summer Flounder
Fishery Management Plan, as published
in the Federal Register on December 17,
1993 (58 FR 65936), provided a
mechanism for transferring summer
flounder commercial quota from one
state to another. Two or more states,
under mutual agreement and with the
concurrence of the NMFS Greater
Atlantic Regional Administrator, can
transfer or combine summer flounder
commercial quota under § 648.102(c)(2).
The Regional Administrator is required
to consider the criteria in
§ 648.102(c)(2)(i)(A) through (C) in the
evaluation of requests for quota transfers
or combinations.
North Carolina is transferring 2,510 lb
(1,139 kg) of summer flounder
commercial quota to Virginia. This
transfer was requested by North
Carolina to repay landings by a North
Carolina-permitted vessel that landed in
Virginia under a safe harbor agreement.
The revised summer flounder quotas
for calendar year 2017 are now: North
Carolina, 1,539,693 lb (698,393 kg); and
Virginia, 1,219,912 lb (553,343 kg);
based on the initial quotas published in
the 2017 Summer Flounder, Scup, and
Black Sea Bass Specifications and
subsequent transfers.
Classification
This action is taken under 50 CFR
part 648 and is exempt from review
under Executive Order 12866.
Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
