Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 31 / Wednesday, February 15, 1995 / Proposed Rules 8619

Legal Basis

The proposed actions are authorized

under sections 4(i), 4(j) and 303(r) of the

Communications Act 47 U.S.C. 154(i),

154(j), and 303(r).

Reporting, Recordkeeping and Other

Compliance Requirements

The proposed revision of 47 CFR Part

17 would require certain antenna

structure owners to register their

structures and to comply with the

Commission’s painting and lighting

requirements. Additionally, each owner

would have to provide a copy of the

Antenna Structure Registration to all

tenant licensees and post the structure’s

Registration Number at the site. Further,

the proposed rules eliminate the

requirement for certain licensees and

permittees to individually file with the

Commission to amend structure height

or painting and lighting specifications.

Most licensees and permittees, however,

would have to provide the Registration

Number of the structure from which

they intend to transmit when filing for

a new, modified, or renewed

authorization.

Federal Rules Which Overlap, Duplicate

or Conflict With These Rules

None.

Description, Potential Impact, and

Small Entities Involved

Any rule change requiring a small

business antenna structure owner to file

an application for Registration could

affect a small business. However, the

overall impact, if any, will be minimal

because the proposed registration

process will eliminate the need for

many small business licensees and

permittees on an antenna structure to

file certain applications and

notifications. The Commission will

further examine the impact of any rule

changes on small entities after

evaluating the comments in this

proceeding.

Any Significant Alternatives Minimizing

the Impact on Small Entities Consistent

With the Stated Objectives

None.

Snapper-Grouper Fishery Off the

Southern Atlantic States; Regulatory

Amendment for Hogfish, Cubera

Snapper, Gray Triggerfish

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Proposed rule.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

framework procedure for adjusting

management measures of the Fishery

Management Plan for the SnapperGrouper Fishery of the South Atlantic

Region (FMP), NMFS proposes to

establish a daily recreational bag limit of

five hogfish per person; limit the harvest

and possession of cubera snapper 30

inches (76.2 cm), total length, or larger

to two per day; and establish a

minimum size limit for gray triggerfish

of 12 inches (30.5 cm), total length.

These measures would apply only in the

exclusive economic zone (EEZ) off the

Atlantic coast of Florida. The intended

effects of this rule are to rebuild the

snapper-grouper resources and enhance

enforcement.

DATES: Written comments must be

received on or before March 2, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Comments on the proposed

rule must be sent to Peter J. Eldridge,

Southeast Regional Office, NMFS, 9721

Executive Center Drive N., St.

Petersburg, FL 33702.

Requests for copies of the South

Atlantic Fishery Management Council’s

(Council) regulatory document, which

includes a regulatory impact review and

an environmental assessment, should be

sent to the Council, One Southpark

Circle, Suite 306, Charleston, SC 29407–

Peter J. Eldridge, 813–570–5305.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Snappergrouper species in the Atlantic Ocean

off the southern Atlantic states (North

Carolina to Florida) are managed under

the FMP. The FMP was prepared by the

South Atlantic Fishery Management

Council (Council) and is implemented

through regulations at 50 CFR part 646

under the authority of the Magnuson

Fishery Conservation and Management

Act (Magnuson Act).

Background

The Council is concerned about the

biological status of hogfish, cubera

snapper, and gray triggerfish, especially

off the Atlantic coast of Florida where

recreational fishing pressure is intense.

The majority of hogfish and cubera

snapper catches occur off Florida, and a

large portion of the gray triggerfish catch

occurs off Florida. Gray triggerfish is

overfished with an estimated spawning

stock ratio (SSR) of 27 percent. Under

the FMP, species with SSRs below 30

percent are considered overfished. The

SSRs for cubera snapper and hogfish are

unknown, but these species are thought

to be overfished.

Florida implemented in its waters a

harvest/possession limit for large cubera

snapper on March 1, 1994, and a bag

limit for hogfish on July 1, 1994. A size

limit for gray triggerfish will be

implemented on January 1, 1995. The
