In the Federal Register of December

page 87753, in the third column, correct 

the third paragraph of the ‘‘Needs and

The information collected will be 

used: (1) to monitor catch and bycatch 

in federally managed commercial 

fisheries; (2) to understand the 

population status and trends of fish 

stocks and protected species, as well as 

the interactions between them; (3) to 

determine the quantity and distribution 

of net benefits derived from living 

marine resources; (4) to predict the 

biological, ecological, and economic 

impacts of existing management action 

and proposed management options; (5) 

to ensure that the observer programs can 

safely and efficiently collect the 

information required for the previous 

four uses; and (6) for criminal and/or 

civil investigations by law enforcement 

agencies. In particular, these biological 

and economic data collection programs 

contribute to legally mandated analyses 

required under the Magnuson-Stevens
