20248 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 79 / Tuesday, April 25, 1995 / Rules and Regulations

on the acceptance of 800 MHz

applications on 280 SMR category

channels, SMR applicants sought intercategory use of frequencies in the I/LT

and Business Categories which, in turn,

caused I/LT and Business applicants to

seek out-of-category channel

assignments on Public Safety category

channels. APCO asserts that this

situation endangers the continued

availability of these frequencies to the

public service community.

3. ITA opposes APCO’s request

asserting that it is a cavalier approach to

eliminating a long-standing and

beneficial rule. Opponent further

contends that the stay request is merely

a reiteration of APCO’s long-standing

objection to the inter-category sharing

rules.

4. The Commission has undertaken a

rule making proceeding (PR Docket 93–

144, 59 FR 60111 (November 22, 1994)),

in which it is considering Part 90

spectrum allocation issues. In response

to a Congressional directive, the

Commission is also in the process of

developing a specific plan to ensure

adequate spectrum to meet public safety

demands. Continued inter-category

sharing at this time, and at this

substantial rate, could compromise both

issues by exhausting the supply of

available channels, particularly in the

public safety spectrum.

5. Freezing acceptance of new intercategory sharing applications does not

eliminate, as alleged by ITA, the intercategory rules. This temporary action

merely ensures the successful resolution

of the spectrum allocation issues raised

in PR Docket No. 93–144 and the

concerns raised by the public safety

community.

revision clearly identifies for the public

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

The domestic and foreign groundfish

fisheries in the exclusive economic zone

off Alaska are managed by NMFS

according to Fishery Management Plans

(FMPs) for Groundfish of the Gulf of

Alaska and Groundfish of the Bering Sea

and Aleutian Islands Area prepared by

the North Pacific Fishery Management

Council under the authority of the

Magnuson Act. These FMPs are

implemented by regulations governing

the U.S. groundfish fishery at 50 CFR

parts 672 and 675, respectively. Limited

Access Management of Federal Fisheries

In and Off Alaska is implemented by

regulations at 50 CFR part 676. General

regulations that also pertain to U.S.

fisheries are implemented at 50 CFR

part 620.

Department of Commerce

Organization Order 10–15 of January 15,

1988, delegated certain authority of the

Secretary of Commerce to the Under

Secretary/Administrator of NOAA. The

Under Secretary has redelegated part of

this authority, including management of

living marine resources under the

Magnuson Act, to NMFS. This action

revises the North Pacific fisheries

regulations to identify the agency that

has the redelegated authority and

responsibility for issuing the regulations

and otherwise performing the

management functions required by the

Magnuson Act.

The term ‘‘the Secretary, the Secretary

of Commerce,’’ or ‘‘Secretarial’’ are used

throughout the regulations in referring

to functions and authorities assigned to

the Secretary of Commerce in the

Magnuson Act. These functions have

been delegated and are performed by

NMFS. These amendments revise the
