Supplementary Information

Need for Correction In the beginning of the ADDRESSES section of the proposed rule (March 18, 2026, 91 FR 12972), NMFS used an incorrect link to https://www.regulations.gov. The previous link in the proposed rule was https://www.regulations.gov/docket/NOAA-NMFS-2025-0141 rather than the correct link https://www.regulations.gov/docket/NOAA-NMFS-2025-0801 to the Federal e-Rulemaking Portal. The ADDRESSES section has been corrected in this document. (Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) Dated: March 31, 2026. Samuel D. Rauch III, Deputy Assistant Administrator for Regulatory Programs, National Marine Fisheries Service. [FR Doc. 2026-06515 Filed 4-2-26; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-22-P
