commonly referred to as the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA).

a direct final action.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the 

‘‘Rules and Regulations’’ section of this 

Federal Register notice, EPA is 

authorizing the changes by a direct final 

rule. EPA did not make a proposal prior 

to the direct final rule because we 

believe this action is not controversial 

and do not expect comments that 

oppose it. We have explained the 

reasons for this authorization in the 

preamble to the direct final rule. Unless 

we receive adverse written comments 

which oppose this authorization during 

the comment period, the direct final 

rule will become effective on the date it 

establishes, and we will not take further 

action on this proposal. If we receive 

comments that oppose this action, we 

will either withdraw the direct final rule 

or the portion of the direct final rule 

that is the subject of the comments. 

Only the remaining portion of the rule 

will take effect. We will then respond to 

those public comments opposing this 

authorization in a later final 

authorization notice based on this 

proposal. This final authorization notice 

may or may not include changes based 

on comments received during the public 

notice comment period. You may not 

have another opportunity for comment. 

If you want to comment on this action, 

you should do so at this time.

Measures in St. Croix 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Proposed rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: NMFS proposes regulations to 

implement management measures 

described in Regulatory Amendment 4 

to the Fishery Management Plan for the 

Reef Fish Fishery of Puerto Rico and the 

U.S. Virgin Islands (FMP), as prepared 

by the Caribbean Fishery Management 

Council (Council). If implemented, this 

rule would establish minimum size 

limits for parrotfish in the exclusive 

economic zone (EEZ) off St. Croix in the 

U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI). The intent of 

this proposed rule is to provide 

additional protection from harvest to 

maturing parrotfish and to assist the 

stock in achieving optimum yield (OY).
