  <title><![CDATA[  Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Regulatory Amendment  to Modify Recordkeeping and Reporting and Observer]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2007-12-04-E7-23513</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ On April 23, 2007, NMFS published in the Federal Register a 
final rule to implement measures requiring observers for participating 
hagfish vessels in the Federal Register as part of the hagfish 
information collection program. On June 13, 2007, NMFS published a 
separate final rule that inadvertently deleted these regulations 
implemented in the April 23, 2007, rule. This correcting amendment 
corrects this error by reinstating the language regarding hagfish 
observer requirements.

  <title><![CDATA[  Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Summer Flounder  Fishery; Commercial Quota Harvested for Connecticut]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2007-12-04-E7-23509</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ NMFS announces that the 2007 summer flounder commercial quota 
allocated to the State of Connecticut has been harvested. Vessels 
issued a commercial Federal fisheries permit for the summer flounder 
fishery may not land summer flounder in Connecticut for the remainder 
of calendar year 2007, unless additional quota becomes available 
through a transfer from another state. Regulations governing the summer 
flounder fishery require publication of this notification to advise 
Connecticut that the quota has been harvested and to advise vessel 
permit holders and dealer permit holders that no commercial quota is 
available for landing summer flounder in Connecticut.

  <title><![CDATA[  Endangered and Threatened Species; 5-year Review ]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2007-12-04-E7-23503</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ We, NMFS, announce the availability of a 5-year review for 
Johnson's seagrass (Halophila johnsonii) as required by the Endangered 
Species Act of 1973 (ESA). Johnson's seagrass was listed as threatened 
on September 14, 1998. Based on the best available scientific and 
commercial data, we conclude in the 5year review that Johnson's 
seagrass remains a threatened species likely to become endangered 
within the foreseeable future. Therefore, based on our 5year review, 
we recommend no change in listing.
