SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    A final rule was published in the Federal Register on March 17, 
1998, that published annual management measures for Pacific halibut 
fisheries and approval of catch sharing plans (63 FR 13000). That 
document contained two typographical errors.

Corrections

    As published, an incorrect date was listed twice in the March 17, 
1998, edition of the Federal Register. On page 13002, in the first 
column, under ``Comment:,'' the season start date should read ``May 
21.''
    On page 13007, under instruction number 23 in the second column, 
under (4)(b)(i)(A) the fishing season start date should read ``May 
21.'' NMFS is correcting these errors and is making no substantive 
change to the document in this action.

    Dated: March 25, 1998.
Gary C. Matlock,
Acting Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries 
Service.
