SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 

Section 204(e)(1)(A)of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and 

Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens 

Act), the Secretary of State, with the 

concurrence of the Secretary of 

Commerce (Secretary) and in 

consultation with the Council, may 

negotiate and enter into a Pacific Insular 

Area fishery agreement (PIAFA) to allow 

foreign fishing within waters of the U.S. 

Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) 

adjacent to American Samoa, Guam, or 

the Northern Mariana Islands, and at the 

request and with the concurrence of, 

and in consultation with, the Governor 

of the Pacific Insular Area to which the 

PIAFA applies. Section 204(e)(4) of the 

Magnuson-Stevens Act requires that 

prior to entering into a PIAFA, the 

appropriate Governor and the Council 

shall develop a three-year MCP detailing 

the uses for any funds collected by the 

Secretary under the PIAFA. 

Any payments received under a 

PIAFA shall be deposited into the 

United States Treasury and then 

covered over to the Treasury of the 

Pacific Insular Area for which funds 

were collected. In the case of violations 

by foreign fishing vessels occurring 

within the EEZ off any Pacific Insular 

Area, any amount received by the 

Secretary which is attributable to fines 

and penalties imposed under the 

Magnuson-Stevens Act, including such 

sums collected from the forfeiture and 

disposition or sale of property seized 

subject to its authority, after payment of 

direct costs of the enforcement action to 

all entities involved in such action, 

shall be deposited into the Treasury of 

the Pacific Insular Area adjacent to the 

EEZ in which the violation occurred, to 

be used for fisheries enforcement and 

for implementation of an MCP. The 

MCP to be approved by the Secretary 

must be consistent with the Council’s 

fishery management plans, identify 

conservation and management 

objectives (including criteria for 

determining when such objectives have 

been met), and prioritize planned 

marine conservation projects. 

At its 144th meeting in March 2009, 

the Council reviewed and approved the 

MCP for American Samoa and 

recommended its submission to the 

Secretary for approval. NMFS, designee 

of the Secretary, received the MCP on 

June 22, 2009. 

The American Samoa MCP contains 

seven broad conservation and 

management objectives that are 

consistent with the Council’s fishery 

management plans. The MCP also 

identifies 37 individual projects that 

would be funded under a PIAFA. The 

objectives and projects are listed below, 

in priority order: 

• Objective 1: Promote responsible
