Atlantic Region, NMFS, has made a preliminary determination that an 
application submitted by the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance 
for an exempted fishing permit contains all of the required information 
and warrants further consideration. The proposed active date of the 
exempted fishing permit was incorrect.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 21, 2019, NMFS published a 
notification that informed the public that the Assistant Regional 
Administrator for Sustainable Fisheries, Greater Atlantic Region, NMFS, 
made a preliminary determination that an application submitted by the 
Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen's Alliance for an exempted fishing permit 
(EFP) contains all of the required information and warrants further 
consideration. The document incorrectly listed the active period for 
the EFP as January 1, 2019, through April 30, 2019, instead of the 
correct active period of January 1, 2020, through April 30, 2020. This 
correction does not change the scope or impact of the proposed EFP. 
This correction is necessary to provide interested parties the 
opportunity to comment on the application with correct and complete 
information.

from January 1, 2020, through April 30, 2020.''
