Correction

In proposed rule FR Doc. 2012–13295, dated June 1, 2012 on page 32433 in the third column, the **SUPPLEMENTARY**
**INFORMATION** section should read:

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The FOIA requires each Federal agency covered by the Act to specify a schedule of fees applicable to processing of requests for agency records. 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(A)(i). Pursuant to 10 CFR 1703.107(b)(6) of the Board’s regulations, the Board’s General Manager will update the FOIA Fee Schedule once every 12 months. Previous Fee Schedule Updates were published in the Federal Register and went into effect, most recently, on July 22, 2011, 76 FR 43819. The Board’s proposed fee schedule is consistent with the guidance. The components of the proposed fees (hourly charges for search and review and charges for copies of requested documents) are based upon the Board’s specific cost. Dated: June 5, 2012. Brian Grosner, General Manager.

**RIN 0648–BA36**
**National Appeals Office Rules of Procedure** 

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

**ACTION :**  Proposed rule; request for
comments.

**SUMMARY :**  This proposed rule would establish procedures governing the National Appeals Office (NAO), a division of NMFS’ Office of Management and Budget within NOAA. NAO’s central mission is to provide an efficient means of adjudicating appeals by providing due process and consistency to NMFS’ administrative decisions. This proposed rule would establish a process by which NMFS could review, and if necessary correct, decisions about certain limited access privilege programs under Section 303A of the Magnuson-Steven Fishery Conservation and Management Act. The proposed procedures could also be used to adjudicate appeals from other offices that incorporate these rules into their regulations or otherwise notify potential appellants of the procedures’ applicability to their proceedings.
