Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 96 / Thursday, May 20, 2021 / Notices
Method of Sale (MOS) and the Uniform
Fuels and Automotive Lubricants
Regulation (FLR):
Item Block (B1)—NIST HB 130, PAL–
19.1. UPLR, Sec. 2.8. Multiunit Package.
NET–19.2. NIST HB 133
Modify ‘‘scope’’ for Chapters 2
through 4, add a note following Sections
2.3.7.1. and 2.7.3., NET–19.3. and create
a Chapter 5. Specialized Test
Procedures in NIST HB 133. The L&R
Committee will also be addressing a
proposal to include adoption of a test
procedure for the total quantity
declaration on multiunit or variety
packages. In addition, in NIST HB 130,
Uniform Packaging and Labeling
Regulation, the proposal would clarify
Section 2.8. Multiunit.
Item MOS–20.5
Petroleum Gas
Section 2.21 Liquefied
The L&R Committee will consider a
proposal to modify the existing language
for the method of sale of Liquefied
Petroleum Gas. The language was
changed during the NCWM Interim
Meeting and is a Voting Item.
Recommended changes to the existing
language reference a value of ‘‘15.6 °C’’
for temperature determinations in
metric units. According to the current
industry practice for sales of petroleum
products, the reference temperature for
sales in metric are based on 15 °C rather
than the exact conversion from 60 °F
(which is 15.6 °C). Thus, the
temperature reference in metric should
be 15 °C.
Item—FLR–20.5 Section 2.1.2.(a)
Gasoline-Ethanol Blends
The L&R Committee will consider a
proposal to modify the existing NIST
HB130 FLR, Sec. 2.1.2.(a) GasolineEthanol Blends to include a statement to
clarify the maximum vapor pressure
limits by more than 1.0 psi for blends
‘‘containing at least 9 and not more than
15 vol % ethanol’’ from June 1 through
September 15 as allowed by EPA 40
CFR 80.27(d).
The Fuels and Lubricants
Subcommittee will consider
modifications to modify Item Block 3—
MOS 21.1. and FLR–21.2 Labeling and
Identification of Transmission Fluid, a
proposal to modify the language to
include a cautionary statement of
package labels of obsolete transmission
fluids.
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 272(b).

ACTION: Notice; correction.
AGENCY:
NMFS is correcting a notice
that appeared in the Federal Register on
May 6, 2021, that issues permits for a
period of 3 years to authorize the
incidental, but not intentional, take of
specific Endangered Species Act (ESA)listed marine mammal species or stocks
under section 101(a)(5)(E) of the Marine
Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), in
certain U.S. commercial fisheries. There
is an error in the description of the
Category III fisheries that do not require
section 101(a)(5)(E) authorization.
DATES: This notice is applicable May 20,
2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS
published a notice on May 6, 2021 (86
FR 24384) issuing permits to five
fisheries to authorize the incidental take
of ESA-listed marine mammal species or
stocks under section 101(a)(5)(E) of the
MMPA. The permits are effective for a
3-year period beginning May 6, 2021.
The notice incorrectly stated: ‘‘The HI
shallow-set longline/Western Pacific
pelagic longline (HI shallow-set
component) changed classification from
Category II to Category III in the 2021
LOF (86 FR 3028, January 14, 2021).’’
(86 FR 24384, 24386).
The Category II HI shallow-set
longline fishery and the HI shallow-set
component of the Western Pacific
pelagic longline fisheries were not
reclassified as Category III fisheries on
the 2021 LOF (see 86 FR 3028, January
14, 2021). These two fisheries remain
Category II fisheries on the LOF. As we
stated in our Federal Register notice of
the issuance of MMPA section
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
27389
101(a)(5)(E) permits, we had previously
determined that these fisheries meet the
definition of a Category III with respect
to ESA-listed stocks or species because
they have a remote likelihood of or no
known incidental mortality of serious
injury of ESA-listed marine mammals,
and therefore did not require permits.
(86 FR 24384, 24386)
However, the Category II AK Bering
Sea, Aleutian Islands Pacific cod
longline fishery was reclassified as a
Category III fishery on the 2021 LOF (86
FR 3028, January 14, 2021). As we
stated in our Federal Register notice for
issuance of the permits, we previously
determined this fishery was considered
a Category III commercial fishery with
respect to ESA-listed stocks or species,
so this change in classification does not
change our determination.
NMFS is publishing this notice to
correct these errors and state that the
AK Bering Sea, Aleutian Islands Pacific
cod longline fishery changed
classification from Category II to
Category III on the 2021 List of Fisheries
(LOF) while the Category II HI shallowset longline fishery and the HI shallowset component of the Western Pacific
pelagic longline fishery did not change
classification (86 FR 3028, January 14,
2021). These fisheries were already
considered Category III commercial
fisheries with respect to ESA-listed
stocks or species, so these corrections
do not change our proposed
determinations.
