## Abstract

NMFS is issuing this final rule to revise existing regulations pertaining to confidentiality of information requirements under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson- Stevens Act or MSA). This rule updates the regulations consistent with the 2006 Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act (MSRA) and 1996 Sustainable Fisheries Act (SFA) and amendments to the High Seas Driftnet Fishing Moratorium Protection Act (FMPA) under the 2015 Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing Enforcement Act (IUU Fishing Act). The final rule provides other revisions to address issues that concern NMFS' internal control procedures (ICPs) for management of MSA confidentiality of information.
