Request for Technical Input-Standards in Trade Workshops
Document Number: 05-9946
Type: Notice
Date: 2005-05-19
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) invites interested parties to submit recommendations for workshops covering specific sectors and targeted countries or regions of the world where training in the U.S. system of standards development, conformity assessment, and metrology may facilitate trade. Prospective workshops may be scheduled for one or two week periods. This notice is not an invitation for proposals to fund grants, contracts or cooperative agreements of any kind. NIST will offer a limited number of workshops, based upon the availability of resources. Recommenders are encouraged to consider departmental priorities outlined in part of the soon-to-be released National Export Strategy. NIST will consider recommendations based upon which workshops would be most useful to intended audiences. Additional information about the NIST Standards in Trade Workshops is available at https://ts.nist.gov/ts/htdocs/210/gsig/ sitdescr.htm.
Announcing Approval of the Withdrawal of Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 46-3, Data Encryption Standard (DES); FIPS 74, Guidelines for Implementing and Using the NBS Data Encryption Standard; and FIPS 81, DES Modes of Operation
Document Number: 05-9945

Agency: Department of Commerce, National Institute of Standards and Technology
The Secretary of Commerce has approved the withdrawal of FIPS 46-3, Data Encryption Standard (DES); FIPS 74, Guidelines for Implementing and Using the NBS Data Encryption Standard; and FIPS 81, DES Modes of Operation. These FIPS are withdrawn because FIPS 46-3, DES, no longer provides the security that is needed to protect Federal government information. FIPS 74 and 81 are associated standards that provide for the implementation and operation of the DES. Federal government organizations are now encouraged to use FIPS 197, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), which was approved for Federal government use in November 2001. FIPS 197 specifies a faster and stronger algorithm than the DES for encryption. For some applications, Federal government departments and agencies may use the Triple Data Encryption Algorithm to provide cryptographic protection for their information. This algorithm and its uses have been specified in NIST Special Publication 800-67, Recommendations for the Triple Data Encryption Algorithm (TDEA) Block Cipher, issued in May 2004. FIPS 197 and SP 800- 67 are available on NIST's Web pages. The content of these withdrawn standards will remain available at https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/ fips/ as reference documents and these three FIPS will be listed as withdrawn, rather than current FIPS.

Magnuson-Stevens Act Provisions; Fisheries Off West Coast States and in the Western Pacific; Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery; Biennial Specifications and Management Measures; Correction
Document Number: 05-10023
Type: Rule
Date: 2005-05-19
Agency: Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
On May 3, 2005, the 2005 Pacific whiting (whiting) fishery sector allocations were published in the Federal Register in a final rule that established the whiting fishery specifications in the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ) and state waters off the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California. The catcher/processor and mothership allocation percentage values in the final rule were transposed. This document corrects that error.
Marine Mammals; File Nos. 116-1786, 715-1792, 978-1791

Type: Notice
Date: 2005-05-19
