SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

December 2, 2004, the proposed List of 

Fisheries for 2005 under the Marine 

Mammal Protection Act was published 

in the Federal Register (69 FR 70094). 

NMFS must categorize each commercial 

fishery on the LOF into one of three 

categories under the MMPA based on 

the level of serious injury and mortality 

of marine mammals that occurs 

incidental to the fishery. NMFS must 

publish in the Federal Register any 

necessary changes to the LOF after 

notice and opportunity for public 

comment. In the proposed LOF for 2005, 

NMFS proposed several fishery 

classification, fishery name, and 

organizational changes. In particular, 

NMFS proposed to reclassify the 

California/Oregon thresher shark/

swordfish drift gillnet (≥14 in. mesh) 

from Category II (occasional incidental 

mortality and serious injury) to Category 

I (frequent incidental mortality and 

serious injury) and to reclassify the 

Northeast bottom trawl, Mid-Atlantic 

bottom trawl, and five Alaska fisheries 

from Category III (remote likelihood of 

or no known incidental mortality and 

serious injury) to Category II. The five 

Alaska fisheries include the following: 

Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) 

flatfish trawl, BSAI Greenland turbot 

longline, BSAI pollock trawl, Bering Sea 

sablefish pot, and Gulf of Alaska Pacific 

cod longline. Because the comment 

period coincides with the holiday 

season, several commenters have 

already requested an extension of the 

comment period to adequately review 

NMFS’ proposed changes to the LOF. In 

addition, NMFS intends to prepare an 

environmental assessment on the LOF. 

Therefore, NMFS is extending the 

public comment period on the proposed 

LOF for 2005 from January 3, 2005, to 

March 4, 2005.

Dated: December 29, 2004.

John Oliver,

Deputy Assistant Administrator for 

Operations, National Marine Fisheries 

Service.
