39822 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 125 / Wednesday, June 28, 2000 / Rules and Regulations

EPA has also determined that the

provisions of section 307(b)(1) of the

Clean Air Act pertaining to petitions for

judicial review are not applicable to this

action. Prior EPA rulemaking actions for

each individual component of the

Mississippi SIP compilations had

previously afforded interested parties

the opportunity to file a petition for

judicial review in the United States

Court of Appeals for the appropriate

circuit within 60 days of such

rulemaking action. Thus, EPA sees no

need in this action to reopen the 60-day

period for filing such petitions for

judicial review.

[Docket No. 000119014–0137–02; I.D.

061900G]

Fisheries of the Northeastern United

States; Summer Flounder Fishery;

Commercial Quota Harvested for

Maine

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Commercial quota harvest.

SUMMARY: NMFS announces that the

summer flounder commercial quota

available to the State of Maine has been

harvested. Vessels issued a commercial

Federal fisheries permit for the summer

flounder fishery may not land summer

flounder in Maine for the remainder of

calendar year 2000, unless additional

quota becomes available through a

transfer. Regulations governing the

summer flounder fishery require

publication of this notification to advise

the State of Maine that the quota has

been harvested and to advise vessel

permit holders and dealer permit

holders that no commercial quota is

available for landing summer flounder

in Maine.

DATES: Effective 0001 hours, June 28,

2000, through December 31, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul

H. Jones, Fishery Policy Analyst, 978–

281–9273.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Regulations governing the summer

flounder fishery are found at 50 CFR

part 648. The regulations require annual

specification of a commercial quota that

is apportioned among the coastal states

from North Carolina through Maine. The

process to set the annual commercial

quota and the percent allocated to each

state are described in § 648.100.

The initial total commercial quota for

summer flounder for the 2000 calendar

year was set equal to 11,109,214 lb

(5,039,555 kg)(65 FR 33486, May 24,

2000). The percent allocated to vessels

landing summer flounder in Maine is

0.04756 percent, or 5,284 lb (2,397 kg).

This allocation was adjusted due to an

overage in 1999, as provided in

§ 648.100(e)(4), for a final allocation of

3,956 lb (1,794 kg).

Section 648.101(b) requires the

Regional Administrator, Northeast

Region, NMFS (Regional Administrator),

to monitor state commercial quotas and

to determine when a state’s commercial

quota is harvested. The Regional

Administrator is further required to

publish a notification in the Federal

Register advising a state that, effective

upon a specific date, its commercial

quota has been harvested and notifying

Federal vessel and dealer permit holders

that no commercial quota is available

for landing summer flounder in that

state. The Regional Administrator has

determined, based upon dealer reports

and other available information, that the

State of Maine has attained its quota for

2000.

The regulations at § 648.4(b) provide

that Federal permit holders agree, as a

condition of the permit, not to land

summer flounder in any state after

NMFS has published a notification in

the Federal Register stating that the

commercial quota for that state has been

harvested and that no commercial quota

is available. Therefore, effective 0001

hours, June 28, 2000, further landings of

summer flounder in Maine by vessels

holding commercial Federal fisheries

permits are prohibited for the remainder

of the 2000 calendar year, unless

additional quota becomes available

through a transfer and is announced in

the Federal Register. Effective 0001

hours, June 28, 2000, federally

permitted dealers are also advised that

they may not purchase summer flounder

from federally permitted vessels that

land in Maine for the remainder of the

calendar year, or until additional quota

becomes available through a transfer.

Classification

This action is required by 50 CFR part

648 and is exempt from review under

E.O. 12866.

Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.

Dated: June 22, 2000.
