Establishment of Restricted Areas R-5306G and R-5306H and Amendment of Restricted Areas R-5306C and R-5306D; Cherry Point, NC
This action proposes to establish restricted areas R-5306G and R-5306H at Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Cherry Point, NC. The proposed restricted areas would overlie the amended restricted areas R- 5306C and R-5306D and the existing R-5306E. This action also proposes minor amendments of 2 latitude/longitude coordinates in R-5306C and R- 5306D to align with a refined 3 nautical mile boundary line off the coast, and controlling agency change for R-5306A, R-5306C, R-5306D, and R-5306E to MCAS Cherry Point CERAP. Due to altitude constraints, the existing restricted airspace structure around MCAS Cherry Point cannot fully support the training requirements for current 4th or 5th generation aircraft such as the F-18 and F-35. The proposed restricted areas would provide realistic training to enable pilots and aircrews to deliver real or simulated laser-guided precision guided munitions (PGM) from realistic altitudes.

Proposed Establishment of the Contra Costa Viticultural Area and Modification of the San Francisco Bay and Central Coast Viticultural Areas
The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) proposes to establish the approximately 167,146-acre ``Contra Costa'' American viticultural area (AVA) in Contra Costa County, California.

To avoid this partial overlap, TTB proposes to expand the boundary of the established San Francisco Bay and Central Coast AVAs to entirely encompass the proposed Contra Costa AVA. The proposed expansions would add approximately 109,955 acres to each of the established AVAs. TTB designates viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify wines they may purchase.

Pacific Island Pelagic Fisheries; 2023 U.S. Territorial Longline Bigeye Tuna Catch Limits
NMFS proposes a 2023 limit of 2,000 metric tons (t) of longline-caught bigeye tuna for each U.S. Pacific territory (American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), collectively ``the territories''). NMFS would allow each territory to allocate up to 1,500 t to U.S. longline fishing vessels through specified fishing agreements that meet established criteria. However, the overall allocation limit among all territories may not exceed 3,000 t. As an accountability measure, NMFS would monitor, attribute, and restrict (if necessary) catches of longline-caught bigeye tuna, including catches made under a specified fishing agreement. The proposed catch limits and accountability measures would support the long-term sustainability of fishery resources of the U.S. Pacific Islands.
