SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document corrects a notice that 
published at 72 FR 7608, February 16, 2007, by correctly adding an 
omitted agenda item for the March 6, 2007 meeting and by correctly 
adding a few words that were omitted from the March 8, 2007 meeting. 
All other text has been unchanged and will not be repeated here. The 
two corrections are set out as follows:

Correction

    1. On page 7609, in column 2, an agenda item is correctly added to 
the March 6, 2007 meeting to read as follows:
    March 6, 2007, 6:30 p.m.-(or immediately following the Mackerel 
Public Hearing), a scoping session on annual catch limits and 
accountability measures (addressing recent amendments to the Magnuson-
Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act) will be conducted by 
the National Marine Fisheries Service. Following the scoping session, 
the Council will conduct a listening session to receive public input on 
revising NOAA procedures to integrate the National Environmental Policy 
Act into the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act 
as specified in the recent amendments to the Act.
    2. On page 7609, in column 2, the Shrimp Committee Meeting is 
corrected to read as follows:
8. Shrimp Committee Meeting, March 8, 2007, 8 a.m. until 10 a.m.
    The Shrimp Committee will review a report of the Shrimp Review 
Panel and provide recommendations, receive an overview of the ``use it 
or lose it'' provision for the rock shrimp fishery and develop 
recommendations, discuss additional items to include in Amendment 6 to 
the Shrimp FMP and make recommendations, and address framework action 
to revise the list of allowable bycatch reduction devices for the 
southeastern shrimp fishery.
    Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come 
before this Council for discussion, those issues may not be the 
subjects of formal Council action during this meeting. Council action 
will be restricted to those issues specifically listed in this notice 
and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require 
emergency action under section 305 (c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, 
provided the public has been notified of the Council's intent to take 
final action to address the emergency.
    Except for advertised (scheduled) public hearings and public 
comment, the times and sequence specified on this agenda is subject to 
change.

Special Accommodations

    These meetings are physically accessible to people with 
disabilities. Requests for sign language interpretation or other 
auxiliary aids should be directed to the Council office (see ADDRESSES)

Fisheries Service.
