Résumé
This document contains a correction to a proposed rule that published on January 9, 2012, regarding proposed changes to shrimp regulations. The proposed rule stated that the "Expanded Mesh BRD" would be decertified for use by the Gulf of Mexico shrimp fishery after May 24, 2012. That information was not correct. The "Extended Funnel BRD" is the BRD design that will no longer be provisionally certified for use in the Gulf of Mexico shrimp fishery after May 24, 2012. This rule corrects that mistake. Both the Expanded Mesh and Extended Funnel BRDs remain certified for use in the South Atlantic shrimp fishery.
