SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Licenses for the operation of private remote sensing space systems are issued by CRSRA pursuant to 51 U.S.C. 60101 et seq. (the Land Remote Sensing Policy Act of 1992). The implementing regulations are at 15 CFR part 960. The regulations at 15 CFR part 960 were revised in its entirety in 2020, and the new regulations became effective on July 20, 2020. In the approximately four years since the effective date of the new regulations, CRSRA has identified elements of the regulations that, upon implementation, yielded unexpected consequences or high administrative burdens to both CRSRA and the licensee. CRSRA has also observed trends in the private remote sensing sector that may warrant novel or creative regulatory approaches. For example, CRSRA observed that the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19) pandemic, which was declared shortly prior to the release of 15 CFR part 960, accelerated existing trends pertaining to virtual and distributed private remote sensing system operations and the extensive use in system operations of cloud computing resources and infrastructure. Similarly, CRSRA is seeing an increasing number of applications for hosted payloads and, as these activities increase, anticipates unexpected complications will arise therefrom. The upcoming listening session allows CRSRA to hear from the regulated community and the public regarding insights, challenges, concerns, and recommendations pertaining to the regulations and their implementation, including during pre-application consultation, application and license issuance, license sustainment (e.g., license modification and annual certification periods), and license transfer and termination. For this listening session, we anticipate hearing from the regulated community and the public about the following topics: • Challenges or concerns experienced by stakeholders in understanding or meeting the requirements of 15 CFR part 960, the conditions of the license, and the implementation practices followed between pre-application consultation and license transfer or termination; • Recommendations for regulatory or implementation practice approaches or alternatives that could address any challenges or concerns, or that could continue to streamline 15 CFR part 960; and • Recommendations to improve 15 CFR part 960 and its implementation to E:\FR\FM\11JYN1.SGM 11JYN1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 133 / Thursday, July 11, 2024 / Notices National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Department of Commerce.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) announces the adoption of an Endangered Species Act (ESA) Recovery Plan for the threatened oceanic whitetip shark (Carcharhinus longimanus). The Recovery Plan and associated Recovery Implementation Strategy for this species are now available. We also announce the initiation of a 5-year review for the oceanic whitetip shark. NMFS is required by the ESA to conduct 5-year reviews to ensure that the listing classifications of species are accurate. The 5-year review must be based on the best scientific and commercial data available at the time of the review. We request submission of any such The Recovery Plan The ESA of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.), requires that we develop and implement recovery plans for the conservation and survival of threatened and endangered species under our jurisdiction, unless it is determined that such plans would not promote the conservation of the species. We listed the oceanic whitetip shark (Carcharhinus longimanus) as a threatened species under the ESA on January 30, 2018 (83 FR 4153). We published a Notice of Availability of the Draft Recovery Plan in the Federal Register on January 25, 2023 (88 FR 4817) to obtain public comments on the Draft Plan. We revised the Draft Plan address existing or emerging business plans or models, concepts of operations, or system configurations, or other trends in the private remote sensing industry. The public is reminded that CRSRA expects participants of the session to conduct themselves appropriately. At the beginning of the session, the moderator will explain how it will be conducted and how and when registered participants can provide spoken comments. CRSRA will structure the session so that all members of the public who have registered in advance and indicated a preference to speak during registration will be able to comment; it is anticipated that approximately 5 minutes will be allocated to each speaker for comments. Should requests to comment exceed the time allocated, an additional public listening session will be organized and notice provided. Participants are expected to respect the ground rules, and those that do not may be asked to leave. Richard DalBello, Director, Office of Space Commerce.

Recovery plans help identify and guide recovery needs for species listed under the ESA. Section 4(f)(1) of the ESA requires that recovery plans include, to the maximum extent practicable: (1) site-specific management actions necessary to achieve the plan’s goal for the conservation and survival of the species; (2) objective, measurable criteria which, when met, would result in a determination that the species be removed from the list; and (3) estimates of the time required and cost to carry out those measures needed to achieve the recovery plan’s goal. The Recovery Plan addresses the recovery planning requirements of the ESA for the oceanic whitetip shark. It presents a recovery strategy based on the biological and ecological needs of the species, current threats, and existing conservation measures, all of which affect its long-term viability. The overall strategy to recover the oceanic whitetip shark is to minimize fishing mortality, the primary threat to the species, through a two-pronged approach: (1) reducing the frequency of fishing interactions, and (2) increasing survivorship before, during, and after interactions with fishing gear occur. Given the oceanic whitetip shark’s range is largely outside of U.S. jurisdiction, the recovery strategy includes international cooperation through Regional Fisheries Management Organizations (RFMOs) and other international partners. The Recovery Plan identifies three recovery objectives that, collectively, describe the conditions necessary to achieve recovery: (1) Ensure the oceanic whitetip shark maintains resiliency and geographic representation, and is a functional component of the ecosystem, by increasing overall abundance to achieve viable populations in all ocean basins; (2) Increase oceanic whitetip shark resiliency by managing or eliminating significant anthropogenic threats; and (3) Ensure the continued viability of the oceanic whitetip shark through development and effective implementation of regulatory mechanisms for the long-term protection of the species. The Recovery Plan includes demographic and threatsbased recovery criteria that can be used to help determine when a stable and sustainable population size has been reached and that threats from bycatchrelated mortality in commercial fisheries, international trade of its fins, E:\FR\FM\11JYN1.SGM 11JYN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Licenses for the operation of private remote 
sensing space systems are issued by CRSRA pursuant to 51 U.S.C. 60101 
et seq. (the Land Remote Sensing Policy Act of 1992). The implementing 
regulations are at 15 CFR part 960.
    The regulations at 15 CFR part 960 were revised in its entirety in 
2020, and the new regulations became effective on July 20, 2020. In the 
approximately four years since the effective date of the new 
regulations, CRSRA has identified elements of the regulations that, 
upon implementation, yielded unexpected consequences or high 
administrative burdens to both CRSRA and the licensee.
    CRSRA has also observed trends in the private remote sensing sector 
that may warrant novel or creative regulatory approaches. For example, 
CRSRA observed that the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, 
which was declared shortly prior to the release of 15 CFR part 960, 
accelerated existing trends pertaining to virtual and distributed 
private remote sensing system operations and the extensive use in 
system operations of cloud computing resources and infrastructure.

    The upcoming listening session allows CRSRA to hear from the 
regulated community and the public regarding insights, challenges, 
concerns, and recommendations pertaining to the regulations and their 
implementation, including during pre-application consultation, 
application and license issuance, license sustainment (e.g., license 
modification and annual certification periods), and license transfer 
and termination.
    For this listening session, we anticipate hearing from the 
regulated community and the public about the following topics:
     Challenges or concerns experienced by stakeholders in 
understanding or meeting the requirements of 15 CFR part 960, the 
conditions of the license, and the implementation practices followed 
between pre-application consultation and license transfer or 
termination;
     Recommendations for regulatory or implementation practice 
approaches or alternatives that could address any challenges or 
concerns, or that could continue to streamline 15 CFR part 960; and
     Recommendations to improve 15 CFR part 960 and its 
implementation to

address existing or emerging business plans or models, concepts of 
operations, or system configurations, or other trends in the private 
remote sensing industry.
    The public is reminded that CRSRA expects participants of the 
session to conduct themselves appropriately. At the beginning of the 
session, the moderator will explain how it will be conducted and how 
and when registered participants can provide spoken comments. CRSRA 
will structure the session so that all members of the public who have 
registered in advance and indicated a preference to speak during 
registration will be able to comment; it is anticipated that 
approximately 5 minutes will be allocated to each speaker for comments. 
Should requests to comment exceed the time allocated, an additional 
public listening session will be organized and notice provided. 
Participants are expected to respect the ground rules, and those that 
do not may be asked to leave.
