committees advise PHMSA on proposed 

safety standards, risks assessments, and 

safety policies for natural gas pipelines 

and for hazardous liquid pipelines. Both 

committees fall under the Federal

consists of 15 members—with 

membership evenly divided among the 

Federal and State government, the 

regulated industry, and the public. The 

committees advise PHMSA on technical 

feasibility, practicability, and costeffectiveness of each proposed pipeline 

safety standard.

[Docket No. 090218199–91091–01] 

RIN 0648–AX38 

Fisheries in the Western Pacific; 

Pelagic Fisheries; Vessel Identification 

Requirements 

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries 

Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Proposed rule; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: NMFS proposes to revise 

identification requirements for U.S. 

vessels that fish for pelagic management 

unit species on the high seas of the 

central and western Pacific. The new 

measures would require vessels to 

display their International 

Telecommunication Union Radio Call 

Sign (IRCS). If an IRCS has not been 

assigned to the vessel, the vessel would 

be required to display its official 

number, preceded by the characters 

‘‘USA ’’. The intent of this proposed 

rule is to make existing Federal vessel 

identification requirements conform 

with other regulations being proposed to 

implement international requirements. 

DATES: Comments on the proposed rule 

must be received by August 3, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Comments on this proposed 

rule, identified by 0648–AX38, may be 

sent to either of the following addresses: 

• Electronic Submission: Submit all 

electronic public comments via the 

Federal e–Rulemaking Portal 

www.regulations.gov; or 

• Mail: William L. Robinson, Regional 

Administrator, NMFS, Pacific Islands 

Region (PIR), 1601 Kapiolani Blvd., 

Suite 1110, Honolulu, HI 96814–4700. 

Instructions: All comments received 

are a part of the public record and will 

generally be posted to 

www.regulations.gov without change. 

All personal identifying information 

(e.g., name, address, etc.) submitted 

voluntarily by the sender may be
