SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

pollock CDQ program originally was

developed by the North Pacific Fishery

Management Council (Council) and

submitted as part of Amendment 18 to

the Fishery Management Plan (FMP) for

the Groundfish Fishery of the Bering

Sea and Aleutian Islands Area, which

was approved in part by the Secretary

of Commerce (57 FR 23321, June 3,

1992). Initial Federal regulations

implementing the CDQ program became

effective on November 18, 1992 (57 FR

54936, November 23, 1992) and expire

on December 31, 1995. The Council

proposed re-authorizing the CDQ

program for an additional 3 years as part

of Amendment 38 to the FMP. NMFS

approved this amendment on November

28, 1995. Regulations implementing the

pollock CDQ program for 1996, 1997,

and 1998, were published on December

12, 1995 (60 FR 63654), and will be

effective on January 1, 1996.

Eligible western Alaska communities

submitted six proposed CDPs requesting

CDQs to the Governor under § 675.27.

The State of Alaska conducted a public

hearing on September 23, 1995, in

Seattle, WA, during which all interested

persons had an opportunity to be heard.

The hearing covered the substance and

content of the proposed CDPs in such a

manner that the general public, and

particularly the affected parties, had a

reasonable opportunity to understand

the impact of each proposed CDP. The

Governor made available for public

review all State of Alaska materials

pertinent to the hearing at the time the

hearing was announced. The public

hearing held by the State of Alaska

satisfied the requirements of § 675.27(a).

The Governor consulted the Council

concerning the proposed CDPs during

the Council’s September 1995 meeting.

The Council reviewed copies of the CDP

executive summaries, summary sheets,

and the Governor’s recommended

allocations and unanimously concurred

in the Governor’s recommendations.

Upon receiving the Governor’s

recommendations on November 1, 1995,

NMFS commenced a review of the

record to determine whether the

community eligibility criteria and the

evaluation criteria set forth in

regulations implementing the CDQ

program have been met. NMFS has

found that the Governor’s

recommendations for approval of

proposed CDPs are consistent with the

community eligibility conditions and

evaluation criteria and other applicable

provisions of the regulations.

As required by § 675.27(c)(1), NMFS

publishes this announcement of

approval of the Governor’s

recommendations, including the CDQ

allocated to each CDP (see table below)

and the availability of the findings

regarding this decision (see ADDRESSES).
