SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of 

the meeting schedule, public hearings 

will be held on Regulatory Amendment 

9 to the Snapper Grouper FMP. The 

regulatory amendment includes 

alternatives for commercial trip limits 

for greater amberjack, vermilion 

snapper, black sea bass and gag. The 

amendment also includes management 

options for split season quotas and 

spawning season closures for black sea 

bass. A public hearing will also be held 

on the Comprehensive ACL 

Amendment. The amendment 

establishes ACLs and Accountability 

Measures for species managed by the 

Council that are not currently listed as 

undergoing overfishing as required by 

the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act 

(Magnuson-Stevens Act). This includes 

species in the Snapper Grouper 

management complex as well as 

dolphin, wahoo, and golden crab. Public 

hearings will also be conducted for the 

Comprehensive Ecosystem-Based 2 that 

includes regulatory actions relative to 

the management of octocorals, and nonregulatory actions that update existing 

Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) 

information. The amendment also 

addresses modifying the management of 

South Carolina’s Special Management 

Zones (SMZs), amending the sea turtle 

release gear requirements for the 

snapper grouper fishery, and 

designating new EFH and Habitat Areas 

of Particular Concern (HAPC) areas for 

snapper grouper species, coral, and 

sargassum. 

The public scoping meetings will 

address overlapping fisheries issues for 

the South Atlantic region. Items under 

consideration for public scoping include 

Amendment 21 to the Snapper Grouper 

FMP. This amendment addresses the 

possible use of catch share programs for 

snapper grouper species currently under 

management through quotas (except for 

snowy grouper), effort and participation 

reduction, and endorsement actions. 

The amendment will include options for 

the use of Individual Transferable 

Quotas (ITQs), cooperatives, regional 

and state by state quota analysis, and 

other components. 

The Council will also hold scoping 

meetings on Amendment 22 to the 

Snapper Grouper FMP addressing 

options for long-term management 

measures for red snapper as the stock 

begins to rebuild; Amendment 24 to the 

Snapper Grouper FMP to end 

overfishing and rebuild the red grouper 

stock, according the mandates of the 

Magnuson-Stevens Act; and

Availability for Exclusive, NonExclusive, or Partially-Exclusive 

Licensing of Inventions Concerning an 

Inactivated Dengue Virus Vaccine and 

a Method and Kit for Detection of 

Dengue Virus 

AGENCY: Department of the Army, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Announcement is made of the 

availability for licensing of the 

invention set forth in U.S. Patent 

6,254,873 which issued July 3, 2001, 

entitled ‘‘Inactivated Dengue Virus 

Vaccine,’’ and U.S. Patent 6,190,859, 

entitled ‘‘Method and Kit for Detection 

of Dengue Virus,’’ issued February 20, 

2001. The United States Government, as 

represented by the Secretary of the 

Army, has rights to this invention. 

ADDRESSES: Commander, U.S. Army 

Medical Research and Materiel 

Command, ATTN: Command Judge 

Advocate, MCMR–JA, 504 Scott Street,

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

patent issues, Ms. Elizabeth Arwine, 

Patent Attorney, (301) 619–7808. For 

licensing issues, Dr. Paul Mele, Office of 

Research and Technology Applications 

(ORTA), (301) 619–6664, both at telefax 

(301) 619–5034. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

invention relates to an inactivated 

dengue virus vaccine to immunize and 

protect humans against dengue fever. 

The vaccine is based on dengue viruses 

which have been propagated to high 

titers in suitable cells, purified and 

inactivated under conditions which 

destroy infectivity but preserve 

immunogenicity, a high level of which 

is demonstrated in animal models. Uses 

of the inactivated dengue virus for 

detecting antibodies to dengue and kits 

therefore are also described.
