Subsistence Management Regulations 

for Public Lands in Alaska—2010–11 

and 2011–12 Subsistence Taking of 

Wildlife Regulations 

AGENCIES: Forest Service, Agriculture; 

Fish and Wildlife Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: This proposed rule would 

establish regulations for hunting and 

trapping seasons, harvest limits, 

methods, and means related to taking of 

wildlife for subsistence uses during the 

2010–11 and 2011–12 regulatory years. 

The Federal Subsistence Board 

completes the biennial process of 

revising subsistence hunting and 

trapping regulations in even-numbered 

years and subsistence fishing and 

shellfish regulations in odd-numbered 

years; public proposal and review 

processes take place during the 

preceding year. The Board also 

addresses customary and traditional use 

determinations during the applicable 

biennial cycle. When final, the resulting 

rulemaking will replace the existing 

subsistence wildlife taking regulations, 

which expire on June 30, 2010. This 

rule would also amend the customary 

and traditional use determinations of 

the Federal Subsistence Board and the 

general regulations on subsistence 

taking of fish and wildlife. 

DATES: Public meetings: The Federal 

Subsistence Regional Advisory Councils 

will hold public meetings to receive 

comments and make proposals to 

change this proposed rule on several 

dates between August 25 and October 

28, 2009, and then hold another round 

of public meetings to discuss and 

receive comments on the proposals, and 

make recommendations on the 

proposals to the Federal Subsistence 

Board, on several dates between 

February and April, 2010. The Board 

will discuss and evaluate proposed 

regulatory changes during a public 

meeting in Anchorage, AK, on May 4, 

2010. See SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

for specific information on dates and 

locations of the public meetings. 

Public comments: Comments and 

proposals to change this proposed rule 

must be received or postmarked by 

November 5, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Public meetings: The 

Federal Subsistence Board and the 

Regional Advisory Councils’ public 

meetings will be held at various 

locations in Alaska. See SUPPLEMENTARY

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

22868 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 93 / Friday, May 15, 2009 / Proposed Rules 

Background 

Under Title VIII of the Alaska 

National Interest Lands Conservation 

Act (ANILCA) (16 U.S.C. 3111–3126), 

the Secretary of the Interior and the 

Secretary of Agriculture (Secretaries) 

jointly implement the Federal 

Subsistence Management Program. This 

program grants a preference for 

subsistence uses of fish and wildlife 

resources on Federal public lands and 

waters in Alaska. The Secretaries first 

published regulations to carry out this 

program in the Federal Register on May 

29, 1992 (57 FR 22940). The Program 

has subsequently amended these 

regulations several times. Because this 

program is a joint effort between Interior 

and Agriculture, these regulations are 

located in two titles of the Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR): Title 36, 

‘‘Parks, Forests, and Public Property,’’ 

and Title 50, ‘‘Wildlife and Fisheries,’’ 

at 36 CFR 242.1–28 and 50 CFR 100.1– 

28, respectively. The regulations contain 

subparts as follows: Subpart A, General 

Provisions; Subpart B, Program 

Structure; Subpart C, Board 

Determinations; and Subpart D, 

Subsistence Taking of Fish and Wildlife. 

Federal Subsistence Board 

Consistent with subpart B of these 

regulations, the Departments established 

a Federal Subsistence Board to 

administer the Federal Subsistence 

Management Program. The Board is 

made up of: 

• Chair appointed by the Secretary of 

the Interior with concurrence of the 

Secretary of Agriculture; 

• Alaska Regional Director, U.S. Fish 

and Wildlife Service; 

• Alaska Regional Director, U.S. 

National Park Service; 

• Alaska State Director, U.S. Bureau 

of Land Management; 

• Alaska Regional Director, U.S. 

Bureau of Indian Affairs; and 

• Alaska Regional Forester, U.S. 

Forest Service. 

Through the Board, these agencies 

participate in the development of 

regulations for subparts A, B, and C, 

which set forth the basic program, and 

they continue to work together on 

regularly revising the subpart D 

regulations, which, among other things, 

set forth specific harvest seasons and 

limits. 

Federal Subsistence Regional Advisory 

Councils 

In administering the program, the 

Secretaries divided Alaska into 10 

subsistence resource regions, each of 

which is represented by a Regional 

Council. The Regional Councils provide 

a forum for rural residents with personal 

knowledge of local conditions and 

resource requirements to have a 

meaningful role in the subsistence 

management of fish and wildlife on 

Federal public lands in Alaska. The 

Regional Council members represent 

varied geographical, cultural, and user 

diversity within each region. 

Public Review Process—Comments, 

Proposals, and Public Meetings 

The Regional Councils have a 

substantial role in reviewing this 

proposed rule and making 

recommendations for the final rule. The 

Federal Subsistence Board (Board), 

through the Regional Councils, will 

hold meetings on this proposed rule at 

the following locations in Alaska, on the 

following dates: 

Region 1—Southeast Regional Council ................................................................ Yakutat .................................................. October 6, 2009. 

Region 2—Southcentral Regional Council ............................................................ Cooper Landing ..................................... October 13, 2009. 

Region 3—Kodiak/Aleutians Regional Council ..................................................... Kodiak ................................................... September 10, 2009. 

Region 4—Bristol Bay Regional Council .............................................................. Naknek .................................................. October 27, 2009. 

Region 5—Yukon–Kuskokwim Delta Regional Council ........................................ TBA ....................................................... October 1, 2009. 

Region 6—Western Interior Regional Council ...................................................... Aniak ..................................................... October 6, 2009. 

Region 7—Seward Peninsula Regional Council ................................................... Nome ..................................................... October 1, 2009. 

Region 8—Northwest Arctic Regional Council ..................................................... Kotzebue ............................................... September 2, 2009. 

Region 9—Eastern Interior Regional Council ....................................................... Central ................................................... October 13, 2009. 

Region 10—North Slope Regional Council ........................................................... Barrow ................................................... August 25, 2009. 

During November 2009, the written 

proposals to change subpart D hunting 

and trapping regulations and subpart C 

customary and traditional use 

determinations will be compiled and 

distributed for public review. During the 

30-day public comment period, which is 

presently scheduled to end on 

December 31, 2009, written public 

comments will be accepted on the 

distributed proposals. 

The Board, through the Regional 

Councils, will hold a second series of 

meetings in February through April 

2010, to receive comments on specific 

proposals and to develop 

recommendations to the Board. Meeting 

dates and locations will be published in 

the Federal Register prior to those 

meetings: 

A notice will be published of specific 

dates, times, and meeting locations in 

local and statewide newspapers prior to 

both series of meetings. Locations and 

dates may change based on weather or 

local circumstances. The amount of 

work on each Regional Council’s agenda 

determines the length of each Regional 

Council meeting. 

The Board will discuss and evaluate 

proposed changes to the subsistence 

management regulations during a public 

meeting scheduled to be held in 

Anchorage, AK, on May 4, 2010. The 

Council Chairs, or their designated 

representatives, will present their 

respective Councils’ recommendations 

at the Board meeting. Additional oral 

testimony may be provided on specific 

proposals before the Board at that time. 

At that public meeting, the Board will 

deliberate and take final action on 

proposals received that request changes 

to this proposed rule. 

Proposals to the Board to modify 

wildlife harvest regulations and 

customary and traditional use 

determinations must include the 

following information: 

a. Name, address, and telephone 

number of the requestor; 

b. Each section and/or paragraph 

designation in this proposed rule for 

which changes are suggested; 

c. A statement explaining why each 

change is necessary; 

d. Proposed wording changes; and 

e. Any additional information that 

you believe will help the Board in 

evaluating the proposed change. 

The Board rejects proposals that fail 

to include the above information, or 

proposals that are beyond the scope of 

authorities in §l.24, subpart C (the 

regulations governing customary and 

traditional use determinations), and 

§§l.25, and l.26, subpart D (the 

general and specific regulations 

governing the subsistence take of 

wildlife). During the May 4, 2010, 

meeting, the Board may defer review 

and action on some proposals to allow 

time for local cooperative planning 

efforts, or to acquire additional needed 

information. The Board may elect to 

defer taking action on any given 

proposal if the workload of staff, 

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 93 / Friday, May 15, 2009 / Proposed Rules 22869 

Regional Councils, or the Board 

becomes excessive. These deferrals may 

be based on recommendations by the 

affected Regional Council(s) or staff 

members, or on the basis of the Board’s 

intention to do least harm to the 

subsistence user and the resource 

involved. The Board may consider and 

act on alternatives that address the 

intent of a proposal while differing in 

approach. 

Tribal Consultation and Comment 

As expressed in Executive Order 

13175, ‘‘Consultation and Coordination 

with Indian Tribal Governments,’’ the 

Federal officials that have been 

delegated authority by the Secretaries 

are committed to honoring the unique 

government-to-government political 

relationship that exists between the 

Federal Government and Federally 

Recognized Indian tribes (tribes) as 

listed in 73 FR 18533 (April 4, 2008). 

The Alaska National Interest Lands 

Conservation Act does not specifically 

provide rights to tribes for the 

subsistence taking of wildlife, fish, and 

shellfish. However, because tribal 

members are affected by subsistence 

fishing, hunting, and trapping 

regulations, the Secretaries have elected 

to provide tribes an opportunity to 

consult on this rule. 

The Secretaries will engage in 

outreach efforts for this rule, including 

a notification letter, to ensure that tribes 

are advised of the mechanisms by which 

they can participate. The Board 

provides a variety of opportunities for 

consultation: Proposing changes to the 

existing rule; commenting on proposed 

changes to the existing rule; engaging in 

dialogue at the Regional Advisory 

Council meetings; engaging in dialogue 

at the Board’s meetings; and providing 

input in person, by mail, email, or 

phone at any time during the rulemaking process. The Secretaries will 

commit to efficiently and adequately 

reviewing the government-togovernment consultation process with 

regard to subsistence rulemaking. 

The Board will consider tribes’ 

information, input, and 

recommendations, and address their 

concerns as much as practicable. 

However, in keeping with ANILCA 

§ 805(c), the Board shall follow 

recommendations of the Regional 

Advisory Councils for the taking of fish 

and wildlife unless their 

recommendation is determined to be not 

supported by substantial evidence, 

violates recognized principles of fish 

and wildlife conservation, or would be 

detrimental to the satisfaction of 

subsistence needs. The Board will 

inform the tribes how their 

recommendations were considered. 

Developing the 2010–12 Wildlife 

Seasons and Harvest Limit Regulations 

Subpart D regulations are subject to 

periodic review and revision. The 

Federal Subsistence Board completes 

the biennial process of revising 

subsistence hunting and trapping 

regulations in even-numbered years and 

subsistence fishing and shellfish 

regulations in odd-numbered years; 

public proposal and review processes 

take place during the preceding year. 

The Board also addresses customary and 

traditional use determinations during 

the applicable biennial cycle. 

The text of the final rule published 

June 24, 2008 (73 FR 35726) for the 

2008–10 subparts C and D regulations is 

the text of this proposed rule. These 

regulations will take effect on July 1, 

2010, unless subsequent Board action 

changes elements as a result of the 

public review process outlined above in 

this document. 

Compliance With Statutory and 

Regulatory Authorities 

National Environmental Policy Act 

A Draft Environmental Impact 

Statement (DEIS) that described four 

alternatives for developing a Federal 

Subsistence Management Program was 

distributed for public comment on 

October 7, 1991. The Final 

Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) 

was published on February 28, 1992. 

The Record of Decision (ROD) on 

Subsistence Management for Federal 

Public Lands in Alaska was signed April 

6, 1992. The selected alternative in the 

FEIS (Alternative IV) defined the 

administrative framework of an annual 

regulatory cycle for subsistence 

regulations. 

A 1997 environmental assessment 

dealt with the expansion of Federal 

jurisdiction over fisheries and is 

available at the office listed under FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. The 

Secretary of the Interior, with 

concurrence of the Secretary of 

Agriculture, determined that expansion 

of Federal jurisdiction does not 

constitute a major Federal action 

significantly affecting the human 

environment and, therefore, signed a 

Finding of No Significant Impact. 

Section 810 of ANILCA 

An ANILCA Section 810 analysis was 

completed as part of the FEIS process on 

the Federal Subsistence Management 

Program. The intent of all Federal 

subsistence regulations is to accord 

subsistence uses of fish and wildlife on 

public lands a priority over the taking 

of fish and wildlife on such lands for 

other purposes, unless restriction is 

necessary to conserve healthy fish and 

wildlife populations. The final section 

810 analysis determination appeared in 

the April 6, 1992, ROD and concluded 

that the Federal Subsistence 

Management Program, under 

Alternative IV with an annual process 

for setting subsistence regulations, may 

have some local impacts on subsistence 

uses, but will not likely restrict 

subsistence uses significantly. 

During the subsequent environmental 

assessment process for extending 

fisheries jurisdiction, an evaluation of 

the effects of this rule was conducted in 

accordance with section 810. That 

evaluation also supported the 

Secretaries’ determination that the rule 

will not reach the ‘‘may significantly 

restrict’’ threshold that would require 

notice and hearings under ANILCA 

section 810(a). 

Paperwork Reduction Act 

The information collection 

requirements contained in this rule have 

been approved by the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) under 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and assigned 

OMB control number 1018–0075, which 

expires October 31, 2009. We may not 

conduct or sponsor, and you are not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information unless it displays a current 

valid OMB control number. 

Regulatory Planning and Review 

(Executive Order 12866) 

The Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) has determined that this rule is 

not significant and has not reviewed 

this rule under Executive Order 12866. 

OMB bases its determination upon the 

following four criteria: 

a. Whether the rule will have an 

annual effect of $100 million or more on 

the economy or adversely affect an 

economic sector, productivity, jobs, the 

environment, or other units of the 

government. 

b. Whether the rule will create 

inconsistencies with other agencies’ 

actions. 

c. Whether the rule will materially 

affect entitlements, grants, user fees, 

loan programs, or the rights and 

obligations of their recipients. 

d. Whether the rule raises novel legal 

or policy issues. 

Regulatory Flexibility Act 

The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 

(5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.) requires 

preparation of flexibility analyses for 

rules that will have a significant effect 

22870 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 93 / Friday, May 15, 2009 / Proposed Rules 

on a substantial number of small 

entities, which include small 

businesses, organizations, or 

governmental jurisdictions. In general, 

the resources to be harvested under this 

rule are already being harvested and 

consumed by the local harvester and do 

not result in an additional dollar benefit 

to the economy. However, we estimate 

that 2 million pounds of meat are 

harvested by subsistence users annually 

and, if given an estimated dollar value 

of $3.00 per pound, this amount would 

equate to about $6 million in food value 

statewide. Based upon the amounts and 

values cited above, the Departments 

certify that this rulemaking will not 

have a significant economic effect on a 

substantial number of small entities 

within the meaning of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Small Business Regulatory Enforcement 

Fairness Act 

Under the Small Business Regulatory 

Enforcement Fairness Act (5 U.S.C. 801 

et seq.), this rule is not a major rule. It 

does not have an effect on the economy 

of $100 million or more, will not cause 

a major increase in costs or prices for 

consumers, and does not have 

significant adverse effects on 

competition, employment, investment, 

productivity, innovation, or the ability 

of U.S.-based enterprises to compete 

with foreign-based enterprises. 

Executive Order 12630 

Title VIII of ANILCA requires the 

Secretaries to administer a subsistence 

priority on public lands. The scope of 

this program is limited by definition to 

certain public lands. Likewise, these 

regulations have no potential takings of 

private property implications as defined 

by Executive Order 12630. 

Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

The Secretaries have determined and 

certify pursuant to the Unfunded 

Mandates Reform Act, 2 U.S.C. 1502 et 

seq., that this rulemaking will not 

impose a cost of $100 million or more 

in any given year on local or State 

governments or private entities. The 

implementation of this rule is by 

Federal agencies and there is no cost 

imposed on any State or local entities or 

tribal governments. 

Executive Order 12988 

The Secretaries have determined that 

these regulations meet the applicable 

standards provided in Sections 3(a) and 

3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, 

regarding civil justice reform. 

Executive Order 13132 

In accordance with Executive Order 

13132, the rule does not have sufficient 

Federalism implications to warrant the 

preparation of a Federalism Assessment. 

Title VIII of ANILCA precludes the State 

from exercising subsistence 

management authority over fish and 

wildlife resources on Federal lands 

unless it meets certain requirements. 

Executive Order 13175 

The Alaska National Interest Lands 

Conservation Act does not specifically 

provide rights to tribes for the 

subsistence taking of wildlife, fish, and 

shellfish. And while, for this rule, EO 

13175 does not require the agencies to 

consult with tribes, the Secretaries have 

elected to provide tribes an opportunity 

to consult on this rule. The Board will 

provide a variety of opportunities for 

consultation through: Proposing 

changes to the existing rule; 

commenting on proposed changes to the 

existing rule; engaging in dialogue at the 

Regional Advisory Council meetings; 

engaging in dialogue at the Board’s 

meetings; and providing input in 

person, by mail, e-mail, or phone at any 

time during the rulemaking process. 

Executive Order 13211 

On May 18, 2001, the President issued 

Executive Order 13211 on regulations 

that significantly affect energy supply, 

distribution, or use. This Executive 

Order requires agencies to prepare 

Statements of Energy Effects when 

undertaking certain actions. This rule is 

not a significant regulatory action under 

Executive Order 13211, affecting energy 

supply, distribution, or use, and no 

Statement of Energy Effects is required.

Endangered and Threatened Wildlife 

and Plants; Proposed Rule To 

Reclassify the Oregon Chub 

(Oregonichthys crameri) From 

Endangered to Threatened 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Proposed rule. 

SUMMARY: Under the authority of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (Act), we, the U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service (Service), propose to 

reclassify the Oregon chub 

(Oregonichthys crameri) from 

endangered to threatened. This proposal 

is based on a thorough review of the 

best available scientific data, which 

indicate that the species’ status has 

improved such that it is not currently in 

danger of extinction throughout all or a 

significant portion of its range. We seek 

information, data, and comments from 

the public regarding the Oregon chub 

and this proposal. 

DATES: We will accept comments 

received on or before July 14, 2009. 

Public hearing requests must be 

received by June 29, 2009.
