SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Wednesday, November 20, 2013 

The Council will begin its meeting 

with introductions and announcements 

followed by reports from the NEFMC 

Chairman and Executive Director, 

NOAA Fisheries Regional 

Administrator, the Northeast Fisheries 

Science Center and Mid-Atlantic 

Fishery Management Council liaisons, 

as well as NOAA General Counsel, and 

representatives of the Atlantic States 

Marine Fisheries Commission, U.S. 

Coast Guard, and NOAA Enforcement. 

The Council then intends to initiate a 

framework adjustment to the Fishery 

Management Plan (FMP) for the 

Northeast Skate Complex. The action 

would set fishery specifications for 

2014–15 and also remove the 

unclassified wing fishery VTR code. A 

discussion postponed from the 

September Council meeting will be held 

to consider whether to request a NOAA 

Fisheries emergency action to ban 

midwater trawling based on recent 

concerns about haddock bycatch. 

After a noon lunch break, the Council 

will review and discuss a report and 

recommendations from its ABC Control 

Rule Working Group. Specific 

recommendations from the group will 

be further considered by the Council 

during the discussion of 2014 

management priorities later in the 

meeting. There will be an update about 

Amendment 18 to the Northeast 

Multispecies FMP, an action under 

development that addresses fleet 

diversity, enhances sector management, 

promotes resilience and stability of 

fishing businesses and prevents 

excessive shares in the New England 

groundfish fishery. The day will 

conclude with a discussion about and 

approval of NEFMC management 

priorities for 2014. 

Although other non-emergency issues 

not contained in this agenda may come 

before this Council for discussion, those 

issues may not be the subjects of formal 

action during this meeting. Council 

action will be restricted to those issues 

specifically listed in this notice and any 

issues arising after publication of this

under section 305(c) of the MagnusonStevens Act, provided that the public 

has been notified of the Council’s intent 

to take final action to address the 

emergency.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Additions 

On 9/13/2013 (78 FR 56680) and 

9/20/2013 (78 FR 57844), the Committee 

for Purchase From People Who Are 

Blind or Severely Disabled published 

notices of proposed additions to the 

Procurement List. 

After consideration of the material 

presented to it concerning capability of 

qualified nonprofit agencies to provide 

the services and impact of the additions 

on the current or most recent 

contractors, the Committee has 

determined that the services listed 

below are suitable for procurement by 

the Federal Government under 41 U.S.C. 

8501–8506 and 41 CFR 51–2.4. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act Certification 

I certify that the following action will 

not have a significant impact on a 

substantial number of small entities. 

The major factors considered for this 

certification were: 

1. The action will not result in any 

additional reporting, recordkeeping or 

other compliance requirements for small 

entities other than the small 

organizations that will provide the 

services to the Government. 

2. The action will result in 

authorizing small entities to provide the 

services to the Government. 

3. There are no known regulatory 

alternatives which would accomplish 

the objectives of the Javits-WagnerO’Day Act (41 U.S.C. 8501–8506) in 

connection with the services proposed 

for addition to the Procurement List.

TRICARE; Civilian Health and Medical 

Program of the Uniformed Services 

(CHAMPUS); Fiscal Year 2014 

Diagnosis Related Group (DRG) 

Updates 

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, DoD. 

ACTION: Notice of DRG revised rates. 

SUMMARY: This notice describes the 

changes made to the TRICARE DRGbased payment system in order to 

conform to changes made to the 

Medicare Prospective Payment System 

(PPS). It also provides the updated fixed 

loss cost outlier threshold, cost-tocharge ratios, and the data necessary to 

update the FY 2014 rates. 

DATES: Effective Dates: The rates, 

weights, and Medicare PPS changes 

which affect the TRICARE DRG-based 

payment system contained in this notice 

are effective for admissions occurring on 

or after October 1, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: TRICARE Management 

Activity (TMA), Medical Benefits and 

Reimbursement Branch, 16401 East 

Centretech Parkway, Aurora, CO 80011– 

9066. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Amber L. Butterfield, Medical Benefits 

and Reimbursement Office, TMA, 

telephone (303) 676–3565. 

Questions regarding payment of 

specific claims under the TRICARE 

DRG-based payment system should be 

addressed to the appropriate contractor. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final 

rule published on September 1, 1987 (52 

FR 32992) set forth the basic procedures 

used under the CHAMPUS DRG-based 

payment system. This was subsequently 

amended by final rules published 

August 31, 1988 (53 FR 33461); October 

21, 1988 (53 FR 41331); December 16, 

1988 (53 FR 50515); May 30, 1990 (55 

FR 21863); October 22, 1990 (55 FR 

42560); and September 10, 1998 (63 FR 

48439). 

An explicit tenet of these final rules, 

and one based on the statute authorizing 

the use of DRGs by TRICARE, is that the 

TRICARE DRG-based payment system is 

modeled on the Medicare PPS, and that, 

whenever practicable, the TRICARE 

system will follow the same rules that
