believe that this report is a thorough

economic evaluation of the Team’s

recommendations.

No such similarly detailed economic

evaluation has yet been conducted for

the tasks and objectives contained in

this Proposed Recovery Plan. However,

many of the Team’s recommendations

are similar to those NMFS proposes, and

the relationship of the Team’s

recommendations to the NMFS

Proposed Recovery Plan tasks is

discussed at the end of each chapter or

section of this plan. Readers of the

Proposed Recovery Plan are encouraged

to review Economics of Snake River

Salmon Recovery; a Report to the

National Marine Fisheries Service.’’ A

more complete economic analysis of the

NMFS Proposed Recovery Plan is under

development and will be made available

upon completion.

Public Comments Solicited

NMFS intends that the final recovery

plan will take advantage of information

and recommendations from all

interested parties. Therefore, comments

and suggestions are hereby solicited

from the public, other concerned

governmental agencies, the scientific

community, industry, and any other

person concerned with this Proposed

Recovery Plan. Areas on which NMFS

would particularly like to receive input

include the sections on institutional

structure and economics.

International Whaling Commission;

Meeting

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of public meeting.

SUMMARY: NOAA makes use of a public

Interagency Committee (Committee) to

assist in preparing for meetings of the

International Whaling Commission

(IWC). This document sets forth

guidelines for participating on the

Committee and the date and place of the

next meeting.

DATES: The meeting is scheduled for

May 8, 1995, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. in

Washington, D.C.

ADDRESSES: Comments concerning this

upcoming meeting should be directed to

Kevin Chu, Office of International

Affairs, Room 14247, National Marine

Fisheries Service, 1315 East-West

Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910. The

meeting will be held at the Department

of Commerce, Herbert C. Hoover

Building (Room 6009), 14th and

Constitution, Washington, D.C. 20230.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Kevin Chu at (301) 713-2276.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Secretary of Commerce is charged with

the responsibility of discharging the

obligations of the United States under

the International Convention for the

Regulation of Whaling, 1946. This

authority has been delegated to the

Under Secretary of NOAA. The U.S.

Commissioner to the IWC has primary

responsibility for the preparation and

negotiation of U.S. positions on

international issues concerning whaling

and for all matters involving the IWC.

He is staffed by the Department of

Commerce, and assisted by the

Department of State, the Department of

the Interior, the Marine Mammal

Commission, and other interested

agencies.

Each year, NOAA conducts a series of

meetings and other actions to prepare

for the annual meeting of the IWC,

which is usually held in the spring or

summer. The major purpose of these

preparatory meetings is to provide for

input in the development of policy by

members of the public and nongovernmental organizations interested

in whale conservation. NOAA believes

that this participation is important for

the effective development and

implementation of U.S. policy

concerning whaling.

Any person with an identifiable

interest in U.S. whale conservation

policy may participate in the meetings,

but NOAA reserves the authority to

inquire about the interest of any person

who appears at a meeting and to

determine the appropriateness of that

person’s participation. Foreign nationals

and persons who represent foreign

governments may not attend. These

measures are necessary to promote the

candid exchange of information. Such

measures are a necessary basis for the

relatively open process of preparing for

IWC meetings that characterizes current

practice.

The 47th Annual Meeting of the IWC

will take place from May 22 to June 2,

1995, in Dublin, Ireland. In order to

finalize preparations for the 1995

annual meeting, a meeting of the public

Interagency Committee has been

scheduled for May 8, 1995, from 12 p.m.

to 4 p.m. (see ADDRESSES). The first 2

hours of the meeting have been reserved

for public review of proposed U.S.

position papers. The remaining time

will be spent discussing these proposed

positions.

April 12, 1995.

Commissioner of Customs,

Department of the Treasury, Washington, DC

20229.

Dear Commissioner: This directive

amends, but does not cancel, the directive

issued to you on March 5, 1984, as amended,

by the Chairman, Committee for the

Implementation of Textile Agreements. That

directive directed you to prohibit entry of

certain wool and man-made fiber textile

products, produced or manufactured in

Hungary for which the Government of the

Republic of Hungary has not issued an

appropriate visa.

Effective on April 15, 1995, you are

directed to amend further the March 5, 1984

directive to require a visa for goods in

Categories 351 and 651, produced or

manufactured in Hungary and exported from

Hungary on and after April 15, 1995.

Merchandise in Categories 351 and 651 may

be visaed as merged Categories 351/651 or

the correct category visa corresponding to the

actual shipment.

Merchandise in Categories 351 and 651

which is exported during the period April 15,

1995 through April 30, 1995 shall not be

denied entry for lack of a visa. Merchandise

in Categories 351 and 651 which is exported

prior to April 15, 1995 shall not be denied

entry if accompanied by a 351/651 visa.

Goods in Categories 351 and 651 which are

exported on and after May 1, 1995 may be

accompanied by either the appropriate

merged category visa or the correct category

visa corresponding to the actual shipment.

Shipments entered or withdrawn from

warehouse according to this directive which

The Committee for the Implementation of

Textile Agreements has determined that this

action falls within the foreign affairs

Sincerely,

D. Michael Hutchinson,

Acting Chairman, Committee for the
