Abstract
NMFS announces that the Republic of Spain and the Republic of Ecuador have submitted documentation establishing that they continue to be in compliance with the requirements of the yellowfin tuna importation regulations for nations that have acted to ban purse seine sets on marine mammals in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean (ETP). Affirmative findings have been issued that will allow yellowfin tuna and tuna products harvested by vessels of Ecuador and Spain to be imported into the United States through December 31, 1995.
