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

pertaining to Pacific Halibut Fisheries published in the Federal

DATES: This action becomes effective June 11, 1998.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Bill Robinson, 206-526-6142.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
A final rule was published in the Federal Register on March 17,
1998, announcing the annual management measures for Pacific halibut
fisheries and approval of catch sharing plans (63 FR 13000). That
document contained one typographical error that misstated a date
established by the International Pacific Halibut Commission.
Correction
As published, an incorrect date was listed in the March 17, 1998,
edition of the Federal Register. On page 13004 in the second column,
paragraph (2) of section 8, the dates for the fishing periods currently
read as follows: ``July 22, August 19, August 26, September 9,* * *.''
The ``August 19'' date is incorrect and should read ``August 12.'' NMFS
is correcting this error and is making no substantive change to the
document in this action.
Dated: June 5, 1998.
Rolland A. Schmitten,
Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries
Service.
