Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Shallow-
water Species Fishery by Vessels Using Trawl Gear in the Gulf of 
Alaska; Correction

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Closure; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This document corrects the seasonal apportionment and 
effective date of the closure for the shallow-water species fishery by 
vessels using trawl gear in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA), which was 
published in the Federal Register on August 8, 2001. This action is 
necessary because the fourth seasonal apportionment was inadvertently 
closed instead of the third seasonal apportionment of the 2001 Pacific 
halibut bycatch allowance specified for the trawl shallow-water species 
fishery in the GOA.
