Point Reyes/Farallon Islands National Marine Sanctuary

AGENCY: Sanctuaries and Reserves Division (SRD), Office of Ocean and 
Coastal Resource Management (OCRM), National Ocean Service (NOS), 
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Department of 
Commerce (DOC).

ACTION: Correction to final regulation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document contains a correction to the final regulation 
which was published on January 27, 1997 (62 FR 3788). That regulation 
changed the name of the Point Reyes/Farallon Islands National Marine 
Sanctuary to the Gulf of the Farallones National Marine Sanctuary. This 
document corrects the January 27, 1997 final regulation by instructing 
that all uses of the acronym ``PRNMS'' are changed to ``GFNMS'' within 
part 922 of title 15 of the Code of Federal Regulations.

EFFECTIVE DATE: December 30, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Elizabeth Moore at (301) 713-3141.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The name of the Point Reyes/Farallon Islands 
National Marine Sanctuary (PRNMS) was changed to the Gulf of the 
Farallones National Marine Sanctuary (GFNMS) on January 27, 1997 (62 FR 
3788). Regulations for the GFNMS are found in part 922 of title 15 of 
the Code of Federal Regulations. In the January 27, 1997 final 
regulations, NOAA overlooked the need to also replace the acronym 
``PRNMS'' with ``GFNMS'' throughout Part 922. This document corrects 
the January 27, 1997 final regulation by officially replacing

``PRNMS'' with ``GFNMS'' throughout part 922.

Correction of Publication

    Accordingly, the Federal Register document published on January 27, 
1997 (62 FR 3788) is corrected by adding amendatory instruction 3 to 
read as follows:
    ``3. Part 922 is amended by deleting ``PRNMS'' wherever it appears 
and replacing it with ``GFNMS''.

    Authority: 16 U.S.C. Sec. 1431 et seq.
