AGENCY:
Final rule; correction.
The Federal Communications
Commission is correcting a final that
appeared in the Federal Register on
October 9, 2020. In the document, the
Commission adopts changes to its rules
to prepare the 3.45–3.55 GHz band for
commercial wireless services. It
removes the secondary, non-federal
allocations in the 3.3–3.55 GHz band for
radiolocation services and the amateur
radio service. These services will
continue in alternate spectrum;
radiolocation operations will be moved
to the 2.9–3.0 GHz band, already home
to similar operations, and amateur
licensees will be able to relocate their
operations to other frequencies already
available for amateur operations.
Clearing this band of secondary services
will allow the Commission to auction
the 3.45–3.55 GHz band for commercial
wireless services on a co-primary basis
with federal radio navigation and
radiolocation operations.
Effective: November 9, 2020.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
In August 2016, NMFS published a
final rule (81 FR 54390; August 15,
2016) implementing the fish and fish
product import provisions (section
101(a)(2)) of the MMPA (hereafter
referred to as the MMPA Import
Provisions), which prohibit the import
of fish or fish products from commercial
fishing operations that result in the
incidental mortality or serious injury of
marine mammals in excess of United
States standards. Specifically, this rule
established conditions for evaluating a
harvesting nation’s regulatory programs
to address incidental and intentional
mortality and serious injury of marine
mammals in its fisheries producing fish
and fish products exported to the
United States. Fish and fish products
from export and exempt fisheries
identified by the Assistant
Administrator for Fisheries in the List of
Foreign (LOFF) can only be imported
into the United States if the harvesting
nation has applied for and received a
Comparability Finding from NMFS. The
2016 final rule established procedures
that a harvesting nation must follow and
conditions it must meet to receive a
Comparability Finding for a fishery. The
rule also established provisions for
intermediary nations to ensure that such
nations do not import and re-export to
the United States fish or fish products
that are subject to an import prohibition.
Exemption Period
Under the MMPA Import Provisions,
NMFS established an initial five-year
exemption period similar to the Interim
Exemption for domestic fisheries that
occurred in 1988 prior to
implementation of the framework for
addressing marine mammal bycatch in
U.S. commercial fisheries. Currently,
the exemption period expires December
31, 2021. This interim final rule would
extend the exemption period one year to
end December 31, 2022. During the
exemption period, the prohibitions of
the MMPA Import Provisions do not
apply to imports from the harvesting
nation. NMFS established the five-year
