Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 92 / Thursday, May 12, 2022 / Proposed Rules 29061 

2See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 94062 

(January 26, 2022), 87 FR 15496 (March 18, 2022). 

Proposing Release,2 which proposes 

amendments to its rules under the 

Exchange Act that would amend 17 CFR 

240.3b–16 under the Exchange Act, 

which defines certain terms used in the 

statutory definition of ‘‘exchange’’ 

under Section 3(a)(1) of the Exchange 

Act to include systems that offer the use 

of non-firm trading interest and 

communication protocols to bring 

together buyers and sellers of securities. 

In addition, the Exchange Act Proposing 

Release is re-proposing amendments to 

the Commission’s regulations under the 

Exchange Act that were initially 

proposed in September 2020 for ATSs to 

take into consideration systems that 

may fall within the definition of 

exchange because of the proposed 

amendments in the Exchange Act 

Proposing Release and operate as an 

ATS. In the Exchange Act Proposing 

Release, the Commission is also reproposing, with certain revisions, 

amendments to its regulations for 

Government Securities ATSs. In the 

Exchange Act Proposing Release, the 

Commission is proposing to amend 

Form ATS–N for NMS Stock ATSs, 

which would require existing NMS 

Stock ATSs to amend their existing 

disclosures. In addition, in the 

Exchange Act Proposing Release the 

Commission is proposing to amend the 

fair access rule for ATSs. The 

Commission is also proposing to require 

electronic filing of and to modernize 

Form ATS–R and Form ATS, which 

would require existing Form ATS filers 

to amend their existing disclosures. 

Further, in the Exchange Act Proposing 

Release the Commission is re-proposing 

amendments to its regulations regarding 

systems compliance and integrity to 

apply to ATSs that meet certain volume 

thresholds in U.S. Treasury Securities or 

in Agency Securities. The original 

comment period for the Exchange Act 

Proposing Release ended on April 18, 

2022. 

III. Reopening of Comment Periods 

The Commission believes that 

providing the public additional time to 

consider and comment on the matters 

addressed in the Advisers Act Proposing 

Release and the Exchange Act Proposing 

Release would benefit the Commission 

in its consideration of final rules. 

Therefore, the Commission is reopening 

the comment periods for Release No. 

IA–5955 ‘‘Private Fund Advisers; 

Documentation of Registered Investment 

Adviser Compliance Reviews’’ and 

Release No. 34–94062 ‘‘Amendments 

Regarding the Definition of ‘Exchange’ 

and Alternative Trading Systems (ATSs) 

That Trade U.S. Treasury and Agency 

Securities, National Market System 

(NMS) Stocks, and Other Securities’’ 

until June 13, 2022. 

By the Commission.

Subsistence Management Regulations 

for Public Lands in Alaska— 

Applicability and Scope; Tongass 

National Forest Submerged Lands 

AGENCY: Forest Service, Agriculture; 

Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: To comply with a court order, 

the Federal Subsistence Board (Board) 

must initiate regulatory proceedings to 

identify those submerged lands within 

the Tongass National Forest that did not 

pass to the State of Alaska at statehood 

and, therefore, remain Federal public 

lands subject to Federal subsistence 

provisions. This proposed rule would 

add to the list of submerged parcels in 

the Federal subsistence regulations that 

have been identified through agency 

review. The purpose of this proposed 

rule is to complete regulatory 

proceedings addressing submerged 

public lands within the Tongass 

National Forest, as directed by the 

Court, and will result in increased 

subsistence harvest opportunities for 

rural Alaskans. 

DATES:

Public meeting: The Federal 

Subsistence Board will discuss and 

evaluate proposed regulatory changes 

during a public meeting in Anchorage, 

AK, on April 12 through 15, 2022. A 

teleconference will substitute for an inperson meeting if public health or safety 

restrictions are in effect. To determine 

whether the meeting will be held via 

teleconference or in-person, visit the 

Board’s website at https://www.doi.gov/ 

subsistence/board. See SUPPLEMENTARY

INFORMATION for specific information on 

this public meeting. 

Public comments: Comments on this 

proposed rule must be received or 

postmarked by August 10, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under title VIII of the Alaska National 

Interest Lands Conservation Act 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS
29062 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 92 / Thursday, May 12, 2022 / Proposed Rules 

(ANILCA; 16 U.S.C. 3111–3126), the 

Secretary of the Interior and the 

Secretary of Agriculture (Secretaries) 

jointly implement the Federal 

Subsistence Management Program. This 

program provides a preference for take 

of fish and wildlife resources for 

subsistence uses on Federal public 

lands and waters in Alaska. The 

Secretaries published temporary 

regulations to carry out this program in 

the Federal Register on June 29, 1990 

(55 FR 27114), and published final 

regulations in the Federal Register on 

May 29, 1992 (57 FR 22940). The 

program regulations have subsequently 

been amended a number of times. 

Because this program is a joint effort 

between Interior and Agriculture, these 

regulations are located in two titles of 

the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR): 

Title 36, ‘‘Parks, Forests, and Public 

Property,’’ and Title 50, ‘‘Wildlife and 

Fisheries,’’ at 36 CFR 242.1–242.28 and 

50 CFR 100.1–100.28, respectively. The 

regulations contain subparts as follows: 

Subpart A, General Provisions; Subpart 

B, Program Structure; Subpart C, Board 

Determinations; and Subpart D, 

Subsistence Taking of Fish and Wildlife. 

Consistent with subpart B of these 

regulations, the Secretaries established a 

Federal Subsistence Board to administer 

the Federal Subsistence Management 

Program (Program). The Board 

comprises: 

• A Chair appointed by the Secretary 

of the Interior with concurrence of the 

Secretary of Agriculture; 

• The Alaska Regional Director, U.S. 

Fish and Wildlife Service; 

• The Alaska Regional Director, 

National Park Service; 

• The Alaska State Director, Bureau 

of Land Management; 

• The Alaska Regional Director, 

Bureau of Indian Affairs; 

• The Alaska Regional Forester, U.S. 

Forest Service; and 

• Two public members appointed by 

the Secretary of the Interior with 

concurrence of the Secretary of 

Agriculture. 

Through the Board, these agencies 

and public members participate in the 

development of regulations for subparts 

C and D, which, among other things, set 

forth program eligibility and specific 

harvest seasons and limits. 

In administering the program, the 

Secretaries divided Alaska into 10 

subsistence resource regions, each of 

which is represented by a Regional 

Advisory Council (Council). The 

Councils provide a forum for rural 

residents with personal knowledge of 

local conditions and resource 

requirements to have a meaningful role 

in the subsistence management of fish 

and wildlife on Federal public lands 

and waters in Alaska. The Council 

members represent varied geographical, 

cultural, and user interests within each 

region. 

Public Review Process—Comments and 

Public Meetings 

The Regional Advisory Councils and 

the public will be briefed on this 

proposed rule and the methods for 

submitting comments during their series 

of meetings for the winter 2022 cycle. 

For more information on these meetings 

visit the Councils’ website at https://

www.doi.gov/subsistence/regions. 

The Board will discuss and evaluate 

submitted comments and public 

testimony on this proposed rule during 

a public meeting scheduled for April 12 

through 15, 2022, in Anchorage, Alaska. 

Additional public testimony may be 

presented to the Board on this proposed 

rule at that time. At that public meeting, 

the Board will deliberate and make final 

recommendations to the Secretaries on 

this proposed rule. A teleconference 

will substitute for the in-person meeting 

if public health or safety restrictions are 

in effect. A public notice of specific 

dates, times, call-in number(s), and how 

to participate and provide public 

testimony will be published in local and 

statewide newspapers prior to the 

meeting. 

You may submit written comments 

and materials concerning this proposed 

rule by one of the methods listed in 

ADDRESSES. If you submit a comment via 

https://www.regulations.gov, your entire 

comment, including any personal 

identifying information, will be posted 

on the website. If you submit a 

hardcopy comment that includes 

personal identifying information, you 

may request at the top of your document 

that we withhold this information from 

public review. However, we cannot 

guarantee that we will be able to do so. 

We will post all hardcopy comments on 

https://www.regulations.gov. 

Comments and materials we receive, 

as well as supporting documentation we 

used in preparing this proposed rule, 

will be available for public inspection 

on https://www.regulations.gov, or by 

appointment, provided no public health 

or safety restrictions are in effect, 

between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday 

through Friday, except Federal holidays, 

at: USFWS, Office of Subsistence 

Management, 1011 East Tudor Road, 

Anchorage, AK 99503. 

Reasonable Accommodations 

The Federal Subsistence Board is 

committed to providing access to these 

meetings for all participants. Please 

direct all requests for sign language 

interpreting services, closed captioning, 

or other accommodation needs to 

Robbin La Vine, 907–786–3888, 

subsistence@fws.gov, or 800–877–8339 

(TTY), 7 business days prior to the 

meeting you would like to attend. 

Tribal Consultation and Comment 

As expressed in Executive Order 

13175, ‘‘Consultation and Coordination 

with Indian Tribal Governments,’’ the 

Federal officials that have been 

delegated authority by the Secretaries 

are committed to honoring the unique 

government-to-government political 

relationship that exists between the 

Federal Government and Federally 

Recognized Indian Tribes (Tribes) as 

listed in 82 FR 4915 (January 17, 2017). 

Consultation with Alaska Native 

corporations is based on Public Law 

108–199, div. H, Sec. 161, Jan. 23, 2004, 

118 Stat. 452, as amended by Public 

Law 108–447, div. H, title V, Sec. 518, 

Dec. 8, 2004, 118 Stat. 3267, which 

provides that: ‘‘The Director of the 

Office of Management and Budget and 

all Federal agencies shall hereafter 

consult with Alaska Native corporations 

on the same basis as Indian tribes under 

Executive Order No. 13175.’’ 

ANILCA does not provide specific 

rights to Tribes for the subsistence 

taking of wildlife, fish, and shellfish. 

However, because Tribal members are 

affected by subsistence fishing, hunting, 

and trapping regulations, the 

Secretaries, through the Board, will 

provide Tribes and Alaska Native 

corporations an opportunity to consult 

on this proposed rule. 

The Board will engage in outreach 

efforts for this proposed rule, including 

a notification letter, to ensure that 

Tribes and Alaska Native corporations 

are advised of the mechanisms by which 

they can participate. The Board 

provides a variety of opportunities for 

consultation: Proposing changes to the 

existing rule; commenting on proposed 

changes to the existing rule; engaging in 

dialogue at the Regional Advisory 

Council meetings; engaging in dialogue 

at the Board’s meetings; and providing 

input in person, by mail, email, or 

phone at any time during the 

rulemaking process. The Board will 

commit to efficiently and adequately 

providing an opportunity to Tribes and 

Alaska Native corporations for 

consultation in regard to subsistence 

rulemaking. 

The Board will consider Tribes’ and 

Alaska Native corporations’ 

information, input, and 

recommendations, and address their 

concerns as much as practicable.

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 92 / Thursday, May 12, 2022 / Proposed Rules 29063 

Jurisdictional Background and 

Perspective 

The U.S. District Court for Alaska in 

its October 17, 2011, order in 

Peratrovich et al. v. United States and 

the State of Alaska, 3:92–cv–0734–HRH 

(D. Alaska), enjoined the United States 

‘‘to promptly initiate regulatory 

proceedings for the purpose of 

implementing the subsistence 

provisions in Title VIII of the Alaska 

National Interest Lands Conservation 

Act (ANILCA) with respect to 

submerged public lands within Tongass 

National Forest’’ and directed entry of 

judgment. The Peratrovich case dates 

back to 1992 and has a long and 

involved procedural history. The 

plaintiffs in that litigation raised the 

question of which marine waters in the 

Tongass National Forest, if any, are 

subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal 

Subsistence Management Program. In its 

May 31, 2011, order, the U.S. District 

Court for Alaska (Court) stated that ‘‘it 

is the duty of the Secretaries 

[Agriculture & Interior] to identify any 

submerged lands (and the marine waters 

overlying them) within the Tongass 

National Forest to which the United 

States holds title.’’ It also stated that, if 

such title exists, it ‘‘creates an interest 

in [the overlying] waters sufficient to 

make those marine waters public lands 

for purposes of [the subsistence 

provisions] of ANILCA.’’ 

Most of the marine waters within the 

Tongass National Forest were not 

initially identified in the regulations as 

public lands subject to the subsistence 

priority based upon a determination that 

the submerged lands were State lands, 

and later through reliance upon a 

disclaimer of interest filed by the United 

States in Alaska v. United States, No. 

128 Orig., 546 U.S. 413 (2006). In that 

case, the State of Alaska had sought to 

quiet title to all lands underlying marine 

waters in southeast Alaska, which 

includes most of the Tongass National 

Forest. Ultimately, the United States 

disclaimed ownership to most of the 

submerged lands in the Tongass 

National Forest. The Supreme Court 

accepted the disclaimer by the United 

States to title to the marine waters 

within the Tongass National Forest, 

excepting from that disclaimer several 

classes of submerged public lands that 

generally involve small tracts. Alaska v. 

United States, 546 U.S. at 415. 

When the United States took over the 

subsistence program in Alaska in 1990, 

the Departments of the Interior and 

Agriculture stated in response to 

comments on the scope of the program 

during promulgation of the interim 

regulations that ‘‘the United States 

generally does not hold title to 

navigable waters and thus navigable 

waters generally are not included within 

the definition of public lands’’ (55 FR 

27115; June 29, 1990). That position was 

changed in 1999 when the subsistence 

priority was extended to inland waters 

subject to a Federal reserved water right 

following the Katie John litigation. 

While locating these inland waters, the 

Board also identified certain submerged 

marine lands that did not pass to the 

State and, therefore, where the 

subsistence priority applied. However, 

the Board did not attempt to identify 

each and every small parcel of 

submerged public lands and thereby 

marine water possibly subject to the 

Federal Subsistence Management 

Program because of the potentially 

overwhelming administrative burden. 

Instead the Board invited the public to 

petition to have submerged marine 

lands included. Over the years, several 

small areas of submerged marine lands 

in the Tongass National Forest have 

been identified as public lands subject 

to the subsistence priority. 

In its May 31, 2011, order, the Court 

stated that the petition process was not 

sufficient and found that ‘‘concerns 

about costs and management problems 

simply cannot trump the congressional 

policy that the subsistence lifestyle of 

rural Alaskans be preserved as to public 

lands.’’ The Court acknowledged in its 

order that inventorying all these lands 

could be an expensive undertaking, but 

that it is a burden ‘‘necessitated by the 

‘complicated regulatory scheme’ which 

has resulted from the inability of the 

State of Alaska to implement Title VIII 

of ANILCA.’’ The Court then ‘‘enjoined’’ 

the United States ‘‘to promptly initiate 

regulatory proceedings for the purpose 

of implementing the subsistence 

provisions in Title VIII of ANILCA with 

respect to submerged public lands 

within Tongass National Forest’’ and 

directed entry of judgment. 

Following the Court’s decision, the 

Departments published a notice in the 

Federal Register (77 FR 33391; June 6, 

2012) announcing the initiation of 

reviews of pre-statehood withdrawals 

and reservation in the Tongass National 

Forest. The Bureau of Land Management 

(BLM) and the USDA–Forest Service 

(USDA–FS) started a review of 

hundreds of potential pre-statehood 

(January 3, 1959) withdrawals in the 

marine waters of the Tongass National 

Forest. These reviews included dock 

sites, log transfer sites, and other areas 

that may not have passed to the State at 

statehood. On June 8, 2016, the 

Departments published a proposed rule 

in the Federal Register (81 FR 36836) 

that listed the initial findings 

identifying pre-statehood withdrawals, 

and on May 23, 2018, the Departments 

published a final rule (83 FR 23813) to 

revise the subsistence management 

regulations to add those submerged 

parcels. The purpose of this proposed 

rule is to complete regulatory 

proceedings addressing submerged 

public lands within the Tongass 

National Forest as directed by the Court. 

Developing the Applicability and 

Scope; Tongass National Forest 

Submerged Lands Proposed 

Regulations 

This proposed rule will add 

submerged public lands to the list in the 

subsistence regulations to ensure 

compliance with the Court’s order. In 

addition, this proposed rule would 

make nonsubstantive changes to 36 CFR 

242.3 and 50 CFR 100.3 by transferring 

the listings into a table to effect a user 

friendly format. 

Because this proposed rule concerns 

public lands managed by an agency or 

agencies in both the Departments of 

Agriculture and the Interior, identical 

text will be incorporated into 36 CFR 

part 242 and 50 CFR part 100. 

This action is taken by the 

Department of the Interior pursuant to 

delegated authority. 

Compliance With Statutory and 

Regulatory Authorities 

National Environmental Policy Act 

A Draft Environmental Impact 

Statement that described four 

alternatives for developing a Federal 

Subsistence Management Program was 

distributed for public comment on 

October 7, 1991. The Final 

Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) 

was published on February 28, 1992. 

The Record of Decision (ROD) on 

Subsistence Management for Federal 

Public Lands in Alaska was signed April 

6, 1992. The selected alternative in the 

FEIS (Alternative IV) defined the 

administrative framework of an annual 

regulatory cycle for subsistence 

regulations. 

A 1997 environmental assessment 

dealt with the expansion of Federal 

jurisdiction over fisheries and is 

available at the office listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. The 

Secretary of the Interior, with 

concurrence of the Secretary of 

Agriculture, determined that expansion 

of Federal jurisdiction does not 

constitute a major Federal action 

significantly affecting the human 

environment and, therefore, signed a 

Finding of No Significant Impact. 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with PROPOSALS
29064 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 92 / Thursday, May 12, 2022 / Proposed Rules 

Section 810 of ANILCA 

An ANILCA section 810 analysis was 

completed as part of the FEIS process on 

the Federal Subsistence Management 

Program. The intent of all Federal 

subsistence regulations is to accord 

subsistence uses of fish and wildlife on 

public lands a priority over the taking 

of fish and wildlife on such lands for 

other purposes, unless restriction is 

necessary to conserve healthy fish and 

wildlife populations. The final section 

810 analysis determination appeared in 

the April 6, 1992, ROD and concluded 

that the Federal Subsistence 

Management Program, under 

Alternative IV with an annual process 

for setting subsistence regulations, may 

have some local impacts on subsistence 

uses, but will not likely restrict 

subsistence uses significantly. 

During the subsequent environmental 

assessment process for extending 

fisheries jurisdiction, an evaluation of 

the effects of the subsistence program 

regulations was conducted in 

accordance with section 810. This 

evaluation also supported the 

Secretaries’ determination that the 

regulations will not reach the ‘‘may 

significantly restrict’’ threshold that 

would require notice and hearings 

under ANILCA section 810(a). 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) 

This proposed rule does not contain 

any new collections of information that 

require Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) approval under the PRA 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). OMB has 

reviewed and approved the collections 

of information associated with the 

subsistence regulations at 36 CFR part 

242 and 50 CFR part 100, and assigned 

OMB Control Number 1018–0075, with 

an expiration date of January 31. 2024. 

We may not conduct or sponsor and you 

are not required to respond to a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

Regulatory Planning and Review 

(Executive Order 12866) 

Executive Order 12866 provides that 

the Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs (OIRA) in the Office of 

Management and Budget will review all 

significant rules. OIRA has determined 

that this proposed rule is not significant. 

Executive Order 13563 reaffirms the 

principles of E.O. 12866 while calling 

for improvements in the nation’s 

regulatory system to promote 

predictability, to reduce uncertainty, 

and to use the best, most innovative, 

and least burdensome tools for 

achieving regulatory ends. The 

executive order directs agencies to 

consider regulatory approaches that 

reduce burdens and maintain flexibility 

and freedom of choice for the public 

where these approaches are relevant, 

feasible, and consistent with regulatory 

objectives. E.O. 13563 emphasizes 

further that regulations must be based 

on the best available science and that 

the rulemaking process must allow for 

public participation and an open 

exchange of ideas. We have developed 

this proposed rule in a manner 

consistent with these requirements. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 

(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires 

preparation of flexibility analyses for 

rules that will have a significant effect 

on a substantial number of small 

entities, which include small 

businesses, organizations, or 

governmental jurisdictions. In general, 

the resources to be harvested under this 

proposed rule are already being 

harvested and consumed by the local 

harvester and do not result in an 

additional dollar benefit to the 

economy. However, we estimate that 

two million pounds of meat are 

harvested by subsistence users annually 

and, if given an estimated dollar value 

of $3.00 per pound, this amount would 

equate to about $6 million in food value 

statewide. Based upon the amounts and 

values cited above, the Departments 

certify that this rulemaking will not 

have a significant economic effect on a 

substantial number of small entities 

within the meaning of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act 

Under the Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act (5 U.S.C. 801 

et seq.), this proposed rule is not a major 

rule. It will not have an effect on the 

economy of $100 million or more, will 

not cause a major increase in costs or 

prices for consumers, and will not have 

significant adverse effects on 

competition, employment, investment, 

productivity, innovation, or the ability 

of U.S.-based enterprises to compete 

with foreign-based enterprises. 

Executive Order 12630 

Title VIII of ANILCA requires the 

Secretaries to administer a subsistence 

priority on Federal public lands and 

waters. The scope of this program is 

limited by definition to certain public 

lands. Likewise, these proposed 

regulations have no potential takings of 

private property implications as defined 

by Executive Order 12630. 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

The Secretaries have determined and 

certify pursuant to the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act, 2 U.S.C. 1502 et 

seq., that this proposed rulemaking will 

not impose a cost of $100 million or 

more in any given year on local or State 

governments or private entities. The 

implementation of this rule is by 

Federal agencies and there is no cost 

imposed on any State or local entities or 

tribal governments. 

Executive Order 12988 

The Secretaries have determined that 

these regulations meet the applicable 

standards provided in sections 3(a) and 

3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, 

regarding civil justice reform. 

Executive Order 13132 

In accordance with Executive Order 

13132, the proposed rule does not have 

sufficient federalism implications to 

warrant the preparation of a federalism 

assessment. Title VIII of ANILCA 

precludes the State from exercising 

subsistence management authority over 

fish and wildlife resources on Federal 

lands unless it meets certain 

requirements. 

Executive Order 13175 

Title VIII of ANILCA does not provide 

specific rights to Tribes for the 

subsistence taking of wildlife, fish, and 

shellfish. However, as described above 

under Tribal Consultation and 

Comment, the Secretaries, through the 

Board, will provide federally recognized 

Tribes and Alaska Native corporations a 

variety of opportunities for consultation:

many new provisions concerning the 

assertion, Agency review, and treatment 

of confidentiality claims. This 

document proposes procedures for 

submitting such claims in TSCA 

submissions. It addresses issues such as 

substantiation requirements, 

exemptions, electronic reporting 

enhancements (including expanding 

electronic reporting requirements), 

maintenance or withdrawal of 

confidentiality claims, and provisions in 

current rules that are inconsistent with 

amended TSCA. The proposed rule also 

addresses EPA procedures for reviewing 

and communicating with TSCA 

submitters about confidentiality claims.
