Abstract
NMFS is amending the final regulations governing the Atlantic tunas fisheries by removing a restriction on vessel permit changes that was inadvertently included in a recently published interim final rule that postponed the deadline for permit category changes for calendar year 1997. When issuing the interim final rule, it was not the intent of NMFS to add a restriction to limit category changes to a maximum of once per calendar year.
