Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 109 / Friday, June 5, 2020 / Notices
Report. The Council is expected to take
final action on Framework Adjustment
62 to the Northeast Multispecies FMP,
which focuses on measures to rebuild
southern red hake. The Whiting
Committee also will provide feedback to
the Council on Executive Order 13921.
Next, the Council will receive an
overview of the Atlantic Cod Stock
Structure Working Group report, which
will be followed by a presentation on
the peer review of report. The Council
will discuss the report and peer review
findings. The GARFO Regional
Administrator then will provide a
briefing on a petition for rulemaking on
Atlantic cod and request that the
Council consult with NMFS on this
matter. The Council will engage in a
discussion on how to address issues in
the petition that may have merit.
Following the lunch break, the
Council will spend the full afternoon on
the Groundfish Committee report,
which includes several items. The
Council will receive an overview of
comments received during recent
webinar public hearings for Groundfish
Monitoring Amendment 23 and then
discuss next steps and the timeline for
final action. In a follow-up to the April
meeting, the Council will discuss and
potentially approve Groundfish
Committee recommendations for
adjustments to commercial and
recreational measures to mitigate the
impacts of the COVID–19 pandemic.
This discussion may include a possible
request for secretarial emergency action
for measures related to commercial
carry-over provisions, as well as
recreational measures for Gulf of Maine
haddock and cod. The Council also will
initiate Framework Adjustment 61 to
the Northeast Multispecies FMP, which
will include: total allowable catches for
U.S./Canada stocks of Eastern Georges
Bank (GB) cod, Eastern GB haddock,
and GB yellowtail flounder; 2021–2023
specifications for roughly half of the
groundfish stocks; and other measures.
Finally, the Groundfish Committee will
provide feedback on Executive Order
13921. The Council then will close out
the meeting with other business.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained on this agenda may come
before the Council for discussion, those
issues may not be the subject of formal
action during this meeting. Council
action will be restricted to those issues
specifically listed in this notice and any
issues arising after publication of this
notice that require emergency action
under section 305(c) of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act, provided the public
has been notified of the Council’s intent
to take final action to address the

ACTION: Notice of approval of boundary
expansion and availability of a final
environmental assessment; Finding of
No Significant Impact.
AGENCY:
In accordance with applicable
federal regulations, notice is hereby
given that the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)’s
Office for Coastal Management

existing approved boundary, which
would result in a net increase of 299.773
acres in size to the boundary. NOAA
prepared a draft environmental
assessment to analyze the effects of the
requested changes and solicited public
comment before approving the request
[84 FRN 57702]. The purpose of this
