RIN 0648-AY37


Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Individual 
Fishing Quota Program; Correction

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY:  This action corrects the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section to 
a final rule published in the Federal Register on April 20, 2010, which 
erroneously waived the 30 day delay in effective date. A 30-day delay 
in effectiveness will allow fishermen to come into compliance with the 
terms of the rule, as was originally intended, without compromising any 
other aspect of the fishery. NMFS will not enforce the requirement that 
owners be onboard vessels unless otherwise required by statute or 
regulation.

DATES: Effective May 3, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:  Patsy A. Bearden, 907-586-7228.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Need for Correction

    In the final rule, published on April 20, 2010, that revised the 
Individual Fishing Quota Program for the sablefish and halibut 
fisheries off Alaska (75 FR 20526), make the following correction in 
the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section. On page 20527, in the second 
column, delete this paragraph:
    ``For the same reasons, the AA finds good cause under 5 U.S.C. 
553(d)(3) to waive the 30 day delay in effective date.''

    Dated: April 27, 2010.
Samuel D. Rauch III,
Deputy Assistant Administrator for Regulatory Programs, National Marine 
Fisheries Service.
