SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Atlantic HMS fisheries (tunas, billfish, 
swordfish, and sharks) are managed under the 2006 Consolidated Atlantic 
HMS Fishery Management Plan (FMP) and its amendments pursuant to the 
authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management

the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 971 et seq.). HMS 
implementing regulations are at 50 CFR part 635.
    The Magnuson-Stevens Act requires the establishment of APs and 
requires NMFS to consult with and consider the comments and views of AP 
members during the preparation and implementation of FMPs or FMP 
amendments (16 U.S.C. 1854(g)(1)(A)-(B)). NMFS meets with the HMS AP
