Fisheries of the Northeastern United States; Summer Flounder 
Fishery; Quota Transfers From VA to CT and NC to RI; Correction

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

ACTION: Notification of quota transfer; correction.

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

SUMMARY: This action corrects an error in the calculation of the post-
transfer quota for the State of North Carolina that published in the 
Federal Register on November 26, 2021.

DATES: Effective December 9, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Laura Hansen, Fishery Management 
Specialist, 978-281-9225.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 26, 2021, we published a 
notification of commercial summer flounder quota transfers. The 
Commonwealth of Virginia and the State of North Carolina transferred a 
portion of their 2021 commercial summer flounder quota to the States of 
Connecticut and Rhode Island, respectively (86 FR 67360). The 
notification included an error in the post-transfer revised commercial 
quota for the State of North Carolina. The revised quota for North 
Carolina after the 22,158 lb (10,051 kg) transfer to Rhode Island was 
incorrectly listed as 2,952,765 lb (1,339,352 kg) instead of 2,932,765 
lb (1,330,280 kg). This correction notifies the public of the corrected 
revised commercial quota for the State of North Carolina.

Correction

    In FR Doc. 2021-25839, beginning on page 67360 in the Federal 
Register of November 26, 2021, make the following correction. On page 
67360, in the third column, ``2,952,765 lb (1,339,352 kg)'' is 
corrected to read ``2,932,765 lb (1,330,280 kg)'' in its place.
