SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Bureau of the Census first began to make

these count determinations in 1972 in

response to the requests of local

governments to establish eligibility for

participation in the General Revenue

Sharing Program, authorized under Pub.

L. 92–512. At that time, the Bureau of

the Census established a fee-paid

program enabling entities with

annexations to obtain updated

decennial census population counts that

reflected the population living in the

boundary change areas. The Bureau of

the Census received funding from the

U.S. Department of the Treasury to

make those determinations for larger

annexations that met prescribed criteria

and for the new incorporations. The

General Revenue Sharing Program

ended on September 30, 1986. The

Bureau of the Census continued to fund

the count update operation through

fiscal year 1995 for the large

annexations and through fiscal year

1996 for newly incorporated areas.

There is no funded Federal legislative

requirement that this work continue.

The Bureau of the Census will renew

the program in the year 2001, after the

availability of Census 2000 data, for

those entities that desire the service,

provided that any and all costs

associated with this work are borne by

the local governmental entity.

Authority to continue this program on

a fee-for-service basis is contained in

Title 13, United States Code, Section 8.

Dated: May 13, 1998.

Acting Director, Bureau of the Census.

Whereas, by an Act of Congress

approved June 18, 1934, an Act ‘‘To

ports of entry;

Whereas, the Board’s regulations (15

CFR part 400) provide for the

establishment of special-purpose

subzones when existing zone facilities

cannot serve the specific use involved;

Whereas, an application from

Broward County, Florida, grantee of

FTZ 25, for authority to establish

special-purpose subzone status at the

petroleum product storage facility of

CITGO Petroleum Company, in Broward

County, Florida, was filed by the Board

on July 11, 1997, and notice inviting

public comment was given in the

Federal Register (FTZ Docket 58–97, 62

FR 38972, 7/21/97); and,

Whereas, the Board adopts the

findings and recommendations of the

examiner’s report, and finds that the

requirements of the FTZ Act and the

Board’s regulations are satisfied, and

that approval of the application is in the

public interest;

Now, therefore, the Board hereby

grants authority for subzone status at the

petroleum product storage facility of

CITGO Petroleum Company, located in

Broward County, Florida (Subzone 25B),

at the location described in the

Extension of Preliminary Results

The Department initiated this

administrative review on October 30,

1997 (62 FR 58705). Under section

751(a)(3)(A) of the Act, the Department

may extend the deadline for completion

of an administrative review if it

determines that it is not practicable to

complete the review within the

statutory time limit of 365 days. Because

of the complexity and novelty of certain

issues in this case, it is not practicable

to complete this review within the

statutory time limit of 365 days. The

Department, therefore, is extending the

time limit for the preliminary results of

the aforementioned review to August 3,

1998. See memorandum from Maria

Harris Tildon to Robert S. LaRussa,

which is on file in Room B–099 at the

Department’s headquarters. The

deadline for the final results of this

review will continue to be 120 days

after publication of the preliminary

results.

This extension of time limit is in

accordance with section 751(a)(3)(A) of

the Act and section 351.213(h)(2) of the

Department’s regulations.

Dated: May 14, 1998.

2, notice is hereby given that the

Visiting Committee on Advanced

Technology, National Institute of

Standards and Technology (NIST), will

meet Tuesday, June 9, 1998 from 8:30

a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The Visiting

Committee on Advanced Technology is

composed of fifteen members appointed

by the Director of NIST who are eminent

in such fields as business, research, new

product development, engineering,

labor, education, management

consulting, environment, and

International relations. The purpose of

this meeting is to review and make

recommendations regarding general

policy for the Institute, its organization,

its budget, and its programs within the

framework of applicable national

policies as set forth by the President and

the Congress. The agenda will include

an update on NIST programs, NIST

Planning for International Standards

and Recent Developments in

international Standards, the

Manufacturing Extension Partnership,

and a laboratory tour. Discussions

scheduled to begin at 8:30 a.m. and to

end at 9:10 a.m. on June 9, 1998, on

staffing of management positions at

NIST and the NIST budget, including

funding levels of the Advanced

Technology Program and the

Manufacturing Extension Partnership

scheduled to begin at 4:30 p.m. and to

end at 5 p.m. on June 9, 1998, will be

closed.

DATES: The meeting will convene June

with the concurrence of the General

Counsel, formally determined on

February 13, 1998, that portions of the

meeting of the Visiting Committee on

Advanced Technology which involve

discussion of proposed funding of the

Manufacturing Extension Partnership

and the Advanced Technology Program

may be closed in accordance with 5

U.S.C. 552b(c)(9)(B), because those

portions of the meetings will divulge

matters the premature disclosure of

frustrate implementation of proposed

agency actions; and that portions of

meetings which involve discussion of

the staffing issues of management and

other positions at NIST may be closed

in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6),

because divulging information

discussed in those portions of the

meetings is likely to reveal information

of a personal nature where disclosure

would constitute a clearly unwarranted

invasion of personal privacy.

Atlantic Shark Fisheries; Notice of

Availability

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of availability.

SUMMARY: NMFS announces that the

Highly Migratory Species Management

Division has prepared a final document

considering the economic effects and

potential alternatives to the 1997 quotas

on the Atlantic large coastal shark

fishery, as ordered by the Middle

District Court of Florida, Tampa

Division, on February 26, 1998.

ADDRESSES: Requests for copies of the

final document should be sent to Margo

Schulze, Highly Migratory Species

Management Division (F/SF1), National

Marine Fisheries Service, 1315 EastWest Highway, Silver Spring, MD

20910.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Margo Schulze or Karyl Brewster-Geisz,

301–713–2347; fax: 301–713–1917.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

fishery for Atlantic sharks is managed

under the Fishery Management Plan for

Sharks of the Atlantic Ocean prepared

by NMFS under authority of section

304(g) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery

Conservation and Management Act, as

amended, and was implemented on

April 26, 1993, through regulations

found at 50 CFR part 678.

On April 2, 1997 (62 FR 16648),

NMFS reduced the large coastal shark

commercial quota and recreational bag

limit by 50 percent as proposed, with an

exception for an additional recreational

allowance of two Atlantic sharpnose

sharks per person per trip. The

prohibition on possession of white

sharks was modified to allow for a

catch-and-release-only recreational

fishery. Otherwise, all measures were

implemented as proposed. Partly

because NMFS received comments that

indicated the proposed measures may

have a significant economic impact on

a substantial number of small entities

and because it wanted to ensure that the

impacts were thoroughly analyzed,

NMFS prepared a Final Regulatory

Flexibility Analysis (FRFA) that

assessed the economic impacts of the

regulation on small entities engaged in

the Atlantic shark fishery in the final

rule. In that FRFA, NMFS reaffirmed its
