[Docket No. FMCSA–2011–0073] 

RIN 2126–AB35 

Harmonizing Schedule I Drug 

Requirements 

AGENCY: Federal Motor Carrier Safety 

Administration, DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; correction. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Motor Carrier 

Safety Administration (FMCSA) is 

correcting a Final Rule that appeared in 

the Federal Register on January 30, 

2012 (77 FR 4479), which amended the 

physical qualifications for drivers and 

the instructions for the medical 

examination report to clarify that 

drivers may not use Schedule I drugs 

and be qualified to drive commercial 

motor vehicles (CMVs) under any 

circumstances. 

DATES: Effective February 22, 2012. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If 

you have questions on this rule, call or 

e-mail Angela Ward, Nurse Consultant, 

Medical Programs Office, Federal Motor 

Carrier Safety Administration, 

telephone: 202–366–3109; email: 

angela.ward@dot.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FMCSA’s 

recent rule harmonizing Schedule I drug 

requirements included several changes 

to the Instructions to the Medical 

Examination Report for Commercial 

Driver Fitness Determination, form 649– 

F (6045). Although no changes were to 

be made to the form itself, due to a 

printing error, several changes were 

inadvertently made. The following 

correction reverses those changes. 

In FR Doc. 2012–1905 appearing on 

page 4483 in the Federal Register of 

Monday, January 30, 2012, in 

Instruction 8, correct the form in 

§ 391.43(f) to read as follows: 

§ 391.43 Medical examination; certificate 

of physical examination.

50 CFR Part 679 

[Docket No. 101126521–0640–02] 

RIN 6048–XB024 

Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic 

Zone Off Alaska; Pacific Cod by 

Catcher Vessels Less Than 60 Feet 

(18.3 Meters) Length Overall Using 

Hook-and-Line or Pot Gear in the 

Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands 

Management Area 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Temporary rule; closure. 

SUMMARY: NMFS is prohibiting directed 

fishing for Pacific cod by catcher vessels 

less than 60 feet (18.3 meters (m)) length 

overall (LOA) using hook-and-line or 

pot gear in the Bering Sea and Aleutian 

Islands management area (BSAI). This 

action is necessary to prevent exceeding 

the 2012 Pacific cod total allowable 

catch (TAC) specified for catcher vessels 

less than 60 feet (18.3 m) LOA using 

hook-and-line or pot gear in the BSAI. 

DATES: Effective 1200 hrs, Alaska local 

time (A.l.t.), February 17, 2012, through 

2400 hrs, A.l.t., December 31, 2012. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Josh 

Keaton, 907–586–7228. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NMFS 

manages the groundfish fishery in the 

BSAI exclusive economic zone 

according to the Fishery Management 

Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea 

and Aleutian Islands Management Area 

(FMP) prepared by the North Pacific 

Fishery Management Council under 

authority of the Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act. Regulations governing fishing by 

U.S. vessels in accordance with the FMP 

appear at subpart H of 50 CFR part 600 

and 50 CFR part 679. 

The 2012 Pacific cod TAC allocated as 

a directed fishing allowance to catcher 

vessels less than 60 feet (18.3 m) LOA 

using hook-and-line or pot gear in the 

BSAI is 4,645 metric tons as established 

by the final 2011 and 2012 harvest 

specifications for groundfish in the 

BSAI (76 FR 11139, March 1, 2011) and 

inseason adjustment (76 FR 81875, 

December 29, 2011). 

In accordance with § 679.20(d)(1)(iii), 

the Administrator, Alaska Region, 

NMFS, has determined that the 2012 

Pacific cod TAC allocated as a directed 

fishing allowance to catcher vessels less 

than 60 feet (18.3 m) LOA using hookand-line or pot gear in the BSAI has 

been reached. Consequently, NMFS is 

prohibiting directed fishing for Pacific 

cod by catcher vessels less than 60 feet 

(18.3 m) LOA using hook-and-line or 

pot gear in the BSAI. 

After the effective date of this closure 

the maximum retainable amounts at 

§ 679.20(e) and (f) apply at any time 

during a trip. 

Classification 

This action responds to the best 

available information recently obtained 

from the fishery. The Assistant 

Administrator for Fisheries, NOAA 

(AA), finds good cause to waive the 

requirement to provide prior notice and 

opportunity for public comment 

pursuant to the authority set forth at 5 

U.S.C. 553(b)(B) as such requirement is 

impracticable and contrary to the public 

interest. This requirement is 

impracticable and contrary to the public 

interest as it would prevent NMFS from 

responding to the most recent fisheries 

data in a timely fashion and would 

delay the closure of Pacific cod by 

catcher vessels less than 60 feet (18.3 m) 

LOA using hook-and-line or pot gear in 

the BSAI. NMFS was unable to publish 

a notice providing time for public 

comment because the most recent, 

relevant data only became available as 

of February 15, 2012. 

The AA also finds good cause to 

waive the 30-day delay in the effective 

date of this action under 5 U.S.C. 

553(d)(3). This finding is based upon 

the reasons provided above for waiver of 

prior notice and opportunity for public 

comment. 

This action is required by § 679.20 

and is exempt from review under 

Executive Order 12866. 

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

Dated: February 16, 2012. 

Carrie Selberg, 

Acting Director, Office of Sustainable 

Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries Service.
