SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Census Bureau’s procedures for
outreach, notice and consultation
ensure involvement of tribes, to the
extent practicable and permitted by law,
before making decisions or
implementing policies, rules, or
programs that affect federally
recognized tribal governments. These
meetings are open to citizens of
federally recognized tribes by invitation.
The Census Bureau’s Decennial
Directorate and the Intergovernmental
Affairs Office is responsible for the
development and implementation of
outreach and promotion activities to
assist in obtaining a complete and
accurate census count in 2020 among all
residents including the American Indian
and Alaska Native populations. This
program is one part of the overall
outreach and promotion efforts directed
at building awareness about the
importance of the census and
motivating response to the 2020 Census
in communities all across the country.
In accordance with Executive Order
13175, Consultation and Coordination
with Indian Tribal Governments, issued
November 6, 2000, the Census Bureau is
adhering to its tribal consultation policy
by seeking the input of tribal
governments in the planning and
implementation of the 2020 Census with
the goal of ensuring the most accurate
counts and data for the American Indian
and Alaska Native population. In that
regard, we are seeking comments to the
following operational topics:
1. 2020 Census Disclosure Avoidance
System (DAS)
2. 2020 Census data products for the
American Indian and Alaska Native
population
The Census Bureau is transitioning to
a new Disclosure Avoidance System
(DAS) to protect information provided
44601
by respondents on the 2020 Census. The
DAS is a new, advanced, and more
powerful confidentiality protection
system than the Census Bureau has
previously used. The DAS employs a
rigorous mathematical process to protect
respondents’ information and identity.
The Census Bureau is fully committed
to publishing detailed race and ethnicity
data from the 2020 Census, including
detailed data on the American Indian
and Alaska Native populations. These
products will be available in a format
that uses the detailed self-reported data,
including the option for respondents to
report as many race categories as apply.
The geographic specificity will be
limited to areas that meet certain, still
to be determined, minimum population
standards, as they have in the past. The
Census Bureau also will apply the new
2020 Census Disclosure Avoidance
System to all data products. Through
the webinar and tribal consultation
sessions, Census Bureau staff will
provide tribal communities with further
details on the Census Bureau’s plans to
modernize its disclosure avoidance
methodology for the 2020 Census and
potential changes to the 2020 Census
data products. For more information on
DAS, please see the following URL link:

Notice is hereby given that
NMFS has made a determination on the
Nez Perce Tribe’s Tribal Resource
Management Plan (TRMP), pursuant to
the protective regulations promulgated
for Pacific salmon and steelhead under
the Endangered Species Act (ESA). The
TRMP specifies the implementation of
fisheries targeting steelhead in the
Snake River Basin.

Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus

Snake River Spring/Summer and Snake
River Fall.
Steelhead (O. mykiss): threatened,
naturally produced and artificially
propagated Snake River Basin.
Sockeye salmon (O. nerka):
endangered, naturally produced and
artificially propagated Snake River.
Background
The Nez Perce Tribe TRMP describes
fisheries targeting adult steelhead
within the Snake River Basin. This plan

was submitted to NMFS in November of
2018 under the ESA Tribal 4(d) Rule,
and describes timing, location, harvest
impact limits, and gear. A variety of
monitoring and evaluation is included
in the TRMP. As required, NMFS took
public comments on its recommended
determination for how the plan
addresses the criteria in § 223.203(b)(4)
prior to making its final determination.

Discussion of the Biological Analysis
Underlying the Determination
Patent and Trademark Office
The TRMP defines maximum impact
rates for natural-origin steelhead
specific to each major population group
within the Snake River Steelhead
Distinct Population Segment. These
maximum impact rates are part of a
basin-wide framework with which all
fishery managers have agreed to
coordinate so that impacts do not
exceed these maximums. Furthermore,
if abundances fall below a major
population group-specific Critical
Abundance Threshold, management
actions (e.g., time-area closures) will be
taken to reduce impacts.
NMFS has analyzed the effects of the
TRMP on ESA-listed salmon and
steelhead species and has concluded
that the TRMP would not appreciable
reduce the likelihood of survival and
recovery of ESA-listed species, while
providing for the proposed tribal treaty
harvest opportunities. Our
determination depends upon
implementation of all of the monitoring,
evaluation, reporting tasks or
assignments, and enforcement activities
included in the TRMP. Reporting and
inclusion of new information derived
from research, monitoring, and
evaluation activities described in the
plan provide assurance that
performance standards will be achieved
in future seasons.
