Conservation of Antarctic Animals and Plants

Pursuant to the Antarctic Conservation Act of 1978, The National Science Foundation (NSF) is amending its regulations to designate additional Antarctic Specially Protected Areas (ASPA). Also, NSF is adding to this rule in Antarctica designated by the Treaty Parties as Antarctic Specially Managed Areas (ASMA) and Historical Sites or Monuments (HSM). These additions only reflect measures already adopted by the Antarctic Treaty parties at Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meetings (ATCM). Finally, the regulation is being revised to correct some typographical and numbering errors.
