to the applicant’s intended purpose and

(2) it knows of no domestic instrument

or apparatus of equivalent scientific

value to the foreign instrument for the

applicant’s intended use.

We know of no other instrument or

apparatus of equivalent scientific value

to the foreign instrument which is being

manufactured in the United States.

[Docket No. 950410097–5097–01; I.D.

112294C]

Atlantic Sturgeon, Bluefish, and

Weakfish; Interstate Fishery

Management Plans

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),

Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of determination of

compliance; cancellation of moratoria.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

Atlantic Coastal Fisheries Cooperative

Management Act of 1993 (Act), the

Secretary of Commerce (Secretary)

announces the cancellation of the

planned Federal moratoria on Atlantic

sturgeon, bluefish, and weakfish in the

coastal waters of New Jersey that would

have become effective on April 15,

1995. The intent to impose the

moratoria was cancelled upon a

notification to the Secretary from the

Atlantic States Marine Fisheries

Commission (Commission) that New

Jersey was in compliance with the

provisions of the Commission’s

Interstate Fishery Management Plans

(FMPs) for Atlantic sturgeon, bluefish,

and weakfish, and after the Secretary

determined that the State of New Jersey

is now in compliance.

EFFECTIVE DATE: The determination to

impose the moratoria is cancelled on

April 14, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Richard H. Schaefer, Director, Office of

Fisheries Conservation and

Management, NMFS, 301–713–2334.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On December 8, 1994, the Secretary

published a notice document in the

Federal Register (59 FR 63326) that the

State of New Jersey was not in

compliance with the Commission’s

FMPs for Atlantic sturgeon, bluefish,

and weakfish. The notice document

declared moratoria on fishing for these

three species in the State waters of New

Jersey, effective April 15, 1995, if the

State of New Jersey was not in

compliance by April 1, 1995. Details

were provided in the December 8, 1994,

notice, and are not repeated here.

The Act specifies that, if, after a

moratorium is declared, the Secretary is

notified by the Commission that it is

withdrawing the determination of

noncompliance, the Secretary shall

immediately determine whether the

State is in compliance with the

applicable plan(s). If the State is in

compliance, the moratorium shall be

cancelled.

Activities Pursuant to the Act

On March 21, 1995, the Secretary

received a letter (dated March 15, 1995)

from the Commission prepared pursuant

to the Act. The Commission’s letter

stated that the State of New Jersey had

now implemented regulations on

Atlantic sturgeon, bluefish, and

weakfish to meet the provisions of the

Commission’s FMPs, and, therefore, the

Commission was withdrawing its

determination of noncompliance.

Cancellation of Moratoria

Based on the Commission’s March 15,

1995, letter, and information received

from the State of New Jersey and the

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,

Department of the Interior, the Secretary

has determined that New Jersey is now

in compliance with the Commission’s

FMPs for Atlantic sturgeon, bluefish,

and weakfish. Consequently, the

Secretary no longer intends to impose

the moratoria on fishing for these

species in the State waters of New

Jersey, and, therefore, the determination

to impose the moratoria on New Jersey

is cancelled.

Dated: April 14, 1995.

Acting Assistant Administrator for Fisheries,

National Marine Fisheries Service.
