SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule was published at 86 FR 43470 on August 9, 2021. The Petitioner filed comments in support of the petition reaffirming its commitment to apply for channel 21. Gray Television, Inc., which acquired the station, also filed comments in support of the petition and stating its commitment to apply for channel 21. In support of its channel substitution request, the Petitioner states that the Commission has recognized that VHF channels have certain characteristics that pose challenges for their use in providing digital television service. In addition, the Petitioner has received numerous complaints of poor or no reception from viewers. Finally, the Petitioner demonstrated that the channel 21 noise limited contour would fully encompass the existing channel 12 contour, and an analysis using the Commission’s TVStudy software indicates that Petitioner’s proposal would result in an increase of 39,677 persons predicted to receive KPTV service and 499 persons that would gain a second over the air signal.

ACTION: Final rule. Final Rule * National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission. Thomas Horan, Chief of Staff, Media Bureau. * DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 15:49 Jan 24, 2022 Jkt 256001 PO 00000 Frm 00052 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Background In January 2018, the southern red hake stock was declared overfished. To meet the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) requirements of an overfished stock, a rebuilding plan and associated management measures are necessary to prevent overfishing, ensure adequate rebuilding, and help achieve optimum yield in the fishery. The New England Fishery Management Council took final action on Framework Adjustment 62 (Framework 62) to the Northeast Multispecies Fishery Management Plan at its June 2020 meeting and submitted the action to us in mid-August 2020. NMFS published a proposed rule on July 12, 2021 (86 FR 36519), with a comment period ending on July 27, 2021. NMFS has approved all of the measures in Framework 62 recommended by the Council, as described below. This final rule establishes a 10-year rebuilding plan, including a rebuilding schedule and change in possession limits for the overfished southern red hake stock. The Magnuson-Stevens Act allows NMFS to approve, partially approve, or disapprove measures proposed by the Council based on whether the measures are consistent with the FMP, the Magnuson-Stevens Act and its National Standards, and other applicable law. Details concerning the development of these measures were contained in the preamble of the proposed rule and are not repeated here. Southern Red Hake Rebuilding Schedule This action establishes a 10-year rebuilding schedule for southern red hake. Under this rebuilding program, catch limits will be established by reducing the acceptable biological catch (ABC) to 75 percent of the fishing mortality rate at maximum sustainable yield (FMSY) for the duration of the rebuilding period, or until the stock reaches its biomass target, whichever happens first. In past years, the ABC has been set at 90 percent or higher of the FMSY, consistent with the Council’s Scientific and Statistical Committee recommendations. Changes to Southern Red Hake Possession Limits This action will also decrease the trip possession limit from 5,000 lb (2,268 kg) to a dual 1,000-lb/600-lb (453.6-kg/ 272.2-kg) possession limit based on the selectivity of the gear type or mesh size being used (Table 1). The 600-lb (272.2kg) possession limit will apply to E:\FR\FM\25JAR1.SGM 25JAR1
