DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration 

Establishing an Advisory Council 

Pursuant to the National Marine 

Sanctuaries Act and Solicitation for 

Applications for the Chumash Heritage 

National Marine Sanctuary Advisory 

Council 

AGENCY: Office of National Marine 

Sanctuaries (ONMS), National Ocean 

Service, National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Department of Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of solicitation. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

NOAA is establishing a national marine 

sanctuary advisory council for the 

Chumash Heritage National Marine 

Sanctuary (CHNMS), the designation of 

which became effective on November 

30, 2024. The council will provide 

guidance to ONMS and will serve as 

liaisons with constituents and 

community groups. As a result, ONMS 

is adding the new council to the list of 

established national marine sanctuary 

advisory councils. ONMS solicits 

applications to fill council seats on an 

as needed basis and is seeking 

applicants for seats on the CHNMS 

Advisory Council. This notice contains 

web page links and contact information 

for CHNMS and application materials to 

apply for the newly established advisory 

council. 

DATES: Applications for membership on 

the CHNMS Advisory Council need to 

be postmarked or received by Friday 

March 7, 2025. 

ADDRESSES: For further information 

contact: Nicole Capps, NOAA ONMS 

West Coast Region Program Analyst, 99 

Pacific Street, Building 100F, Monterey, 

CA 93940; 831–647–6451; 

nicole.capps@noaa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Section 315 of the National Marine 

Sanctuaries Act (NMSA) (16 U.S.C. 

1445a) authorizes the Secretary of 

Commerce to establish advisory 

councils to advise and make 

recommendations regarding the 

designation and management of national 

marine sanctuaries. ONMS is 

establishing a new sanctuary advisory 

council for CHNMS to serve as a liaison 

with the local community and to 

provide guidance and advice to ONMS 

regarding the sanctuary management 

plan. The advisory council for CHNMS 

was not established when ONMS 

published its annual announcement on 

May 24, 2024 that was advertising to fill 

vacant seats on the other 18 councils (89 

FR 45854). Therefore, ONMS is adding 

the new advisory council to the list of 

sites with open vacancies and 

announcing that it is soliciting 

applications to fill the seats of this 

council. Applications are due Friday 

March 7, 2025. 

In the following SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION section, NOAA provides 

details regarding ONMS, the role of 

advisory councils, and contact 

information for CHNMS. 

II. Office of National Marine 

Sanctuaries (ONMS) 

ONMS serves as the trustee for a 

network of underwater parks 

encompassing more than 629,000 square 

miles of marine and Great Lakes waters 

from Washington State to the Florida 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
1082 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 4 / Tuesday, January 7, 2025 / Notices 

Keys, and from Lake Huron to American 

Samoa. The network includes a system 

of 17 national marine sanctuaries and 

the Papaha ̄naumokua ̄kea and Rose Atoll 

marine national monuments. National 

marine sanctuaries protect our nation’s 

most vital coastal and marine natural 

and cultural resources, and through 

active research, management, and 

public engagement, sustain healthy 

environments that are the foundation for 

thriving communities and stable 

economies. 

One of the many ways ONMS ensures 

public participation in the designation 

and management of national marine 

sanctuaries is through the formation of 

advisory councils. Advisory councils 

are community-based groups 

established to provide advice and 

recommendations to ONMS on issues 

including management, science, service, 

and stewardship, as well as to serve as 

liaisons between their constituents in 

the community and the site. Pursuant to 

section 315(a) of the NMSA, advisory 

councils are exempt from the 

requirements of the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act. Additional information 

on ONMS and its advisory councils can 

be found at https://

sanctuaries.noaa.gov. 

III. Advisory Council Membership 

Under section 315 of the NMSA, 

advisory council members may be 

appointed from among: (1) Persons 

employed by Federal or State agencies 

with expertise in natural resources 

management; (2) members of relevant 

regional fishery management councils; 

and (3) representatives of local user 

groups, conservation and other public 

interest organizations, scientific 

organizations, educational 

organizations, or others interested in the 

protection and multiple use 

management of sanctuary resources (16 

U.S.C. 1455a(b)). 

The charter for each advisory council 

defines the number and type of seats 

and positions on the council. The 

advisory council charter for CHNMS 

identifies the following nongovernmental voting seat types: 

Indigenous Cultural Knowledge; Publicat-Large (San Luis Obispo County, Santa 

Barbara County); Conservation; 

Education; Research; Tourism and 

Recreation; Ports, Harbors, and 

Maritime Transportation; Offshore 

Energy and Telecommunications; 

Commercial Fishing; and Recreational 

Fishing. Additionally, the charter 

identifies the following governmental 

voting seat types: Santa Ynez Band of 

Chumash Indians; local San Luis Obispo 

County; and Santa Barbara County 

representatives; State representative. 

Additionally, the council will have 

non-voting seats for: Bureau of Ocean 

Energy Management; Bureau of Safety 

and Environmental Enforcement; 

NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries 

Service; U.S. Coast Guard; Department 

of Defense; U.S. Forest Service; 

California Department of Fish and 

Wildlife; California Coastal 

Commission; California State Lands 

Commission; Central Coast Regional 

Water Quality Control Board; California 

State Parks. The council will also have 

a non-voting Student Leadership seat for 

students over the age of 18. 

To the extent more representation is 

needed, NOAA intends to work with the 

advisory council to establish an 

Indigenous Cultures Advisory Panel as 

a working group of the advisory council 

with adequate space for Indigenous 

community members and others. NOAA 

would respectfully expect this group to 

create unique and essential advice and 

guidance that is informed by knowledge 

of local Indigenous culture. More 

information about the working group 

and its establishment will be available 

after the advisory council is appointed. 

NOAA encourages interested 

individuals to attend advisory council 

meetings and review the council’s 

website and posted meeting notes to 

learn more about the planned 

Indigenous Cultures Advisory Panel. 

NOAA also encourages interested 

individuals to apply to the advisory 

council’s Indigenous Cultural 

Knowledge seats, once applications are 

made available. 

For the CHNMS advisory council, 

applicants will be chosen based upon 

their particular expertise and experience 

in relation to the seat for which they are 

applying; community and professional 

affiliations; views regarding the 

protection and management of marine 

or Great Lakes resources; and possibly 

(though not required) the length of 

residence in the area affected by the site. 

Council members and alternates for 

CHNMS serve two and half or three-year 

terms, as reflected in the signed charter. 

More information on advisory council 

membership and processes, and 

materials related to the purpose, 

policies, and operational requirements 

for advisory councils can be found in

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The FMP for U.S. West Coast 

Fisheries for HMS and its implementing 

regulations at title 50 in the Code of 

Federal Regulations, part 660, subpart 

K, regulate commercial and recreational 

fishing for HMS in the U.S. exclusive 

economic zone off the coasts of 

Washington, Oregon, and California and 

in adjacent high seas waters. NMFS 

published Amendment 6 and its 

implementing regulations on May 8, 

2023 (88 FR 29545). Amendment 6 

authorizes deep-set buoy gear (DSBG) as 

an additional gear type for catching 

swordfish and other HMS in Federal 

waters off of California and Oregon. The 

Pacific Fishery Management Council 

recommended that NOAA Fisheries 

authorize DSBG as an additional 

commercial gear type to improve the 

economic viability of the West Coastbased swordfish fishery while 

minimizing bycatch to the extent 

practicable. The regulations also 

established a limited entry (LE) regime 

for ‘‘phased-in’’ permitting of DSBG 

fishing within Federal waters of the 

Southern California Bight (see 50 CFR 

660.707(g)). Tier 9 is the final phase of 

that LE permit regime. 

Tier 9 Permits 

As required by the regulations at 

§ 660.707(g)(12), once the list of initial 

approved qualifiers for tiers 1 through 8 

is exhausted, NMFS may begin 

accepting applications under tier 9. 

Additionally, as required by regulations, 

NMFS must announce the opening of 

tier 9 in the Federal Register. This 

notice serves as that announcement. 

Therefore, beginning on February 1, 

2025, and ending on March 31, 2025, 

NMFS will accept applications for 

initial issuance of LE DSBG permits 

under tier 9. NMFS will continue to 

accept applications for tier 9 permits on 

an annual basis and issue up to 25 

permits per year until a total of 300 LE 

DSBG permits are issued, unless NMFS 

determines that the maximum number 

of permits should be fewer than 300 and 

publishes a subsequent rulemaking. The 

process for initial issuance of LE DSBG 

permits to applicant that qualify under 

tier 9, which can be found at 

§ 660.707(g)(12), is summarized below. 

To qualify for a LE DSBG permit 

under tier 9, an applicant must be a 

‘‘person’’ as defined at § 660.702 and 

must not already own a LE DSBG permit 

either individually or as a shareholder 

in a business which owns a LE DSBG 

permit. 

To apply for a LE DSBG permit under 

tier 9 in 2025, a person must submit a 

complete application to NMFS through 

the National Permits System website no 

later than 11:59 p.m. Pacific daylight 

time on March 31, 2025. A complete 

initial issuance application package 

consists of the following: a completed 

initial issuance application form, which 

may include ownership interest for 

businesses, and as required under 

§ 660.707(g)(3)(ii); a current copy of the 

U.S. Coast Guard Documentation Form 

or State registration form for the vessel 

that will be registered to the permit; and 

payment of required fees. NMFS may 

require additional documentation as it 

deems necessary to make a 

determination on the application. The
