Any party submitting factual
information in an AD/CVD proceeding
must certify to the accuracy and
completeness of that information.2
Parties must use the certification
formats provided in 19 CFR 351.303(g).3
Commerce intends to reject factual
submissions if the submitting party does
not comply with applicable revised
certification requirements.
On April 10, 2013, Commerce
modified two regulations related to AD/
CVD proceedings: The definition of
factual information (19 CFR
351.102(b)(21)), and the time limits for
the submission of factual information
(19 CFR 351.301).4 Parties are advised to
review the final rule, available at http://
enforcement.trade.gov/frn/2013/
1304frn/2013-08227.txt, prior to
submitting factual information in these
segments. To the extent that other
regulations govern the submission of
factual information in a segment (such
as 19 CFR 351.218), these time limits
will continue to be applied. Parties are
also advised to review the final rule
concerning the extension of time limits
for submissions in AD/CVD
proceedings, available at http://
enforcement.trade.gov/frn/2013/
1309frn/2013-22853.txt, prior to
submitting factual information in these
segments.5

facilitate the timely preparation of the
public service list, it is requested that
those seeking recognition as interested

2019 Research Fishery
National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of intent; request for
applications.
AGENCY:

NMFS announces its request
for applications for the 2019 shark
research fishery from commercial shark
fishermen with directed or incidental
shark limited access permits. The shark
research fishery allows for the collection
of fishery-dependent and biological data
for future stock assessments and to meet
the research objectives of the Agency.
The only commercial vessels authorized
to land sandbar sharks are those
participating in the shark research
fishery. Shark research fishery
permittees may also land other large
coastal sharks (LCS), small coastal
sharks (SCS), smoothhound, and pelagic
sharks. Commercial shark fishermen
who are interested in participating in
the shark research fishery need to
submit a completed Shark Research
Fishery Permit Application in order to
be considered.
DATES: Shark Research Fishery
Applications must be received no later
than December 1, 2018.
ADDRESSES: Please submit completed
applications to the HMS Management
Division at:
• Mail: Attn: Lauren Latchford, HMS
Management Division (F/SF1), NMFS,
1315 East-West Highway, Silver Spring,
MD 20910.
• Email: NMFS.Research.Fishery@
noaa.gov.
For copies of the Shark Research
Fishery Permit Application, please write
to the HMS Management Division at the
address listed above, call (301) 427–
8503 (phone), or email a request to
NMFS.Research.Fishery@noaa.gov.
Copies of the Shark Research Fishery
Application are also available at the
HMS website at https://
www.fisheries.noaa.gov/atlantic-highlymigratory-species/atlantic-highlymigratory-species-permits-andreporting-forms. Additionally, please be
advised that your application may be
released under the Freedom of
Information Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Atlantic shark fisheries are managed
under the authority of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act). The 2006 Consolidated HMS
Fishery Management Plan (FMP), as
amended, is implemented by
regulations at 50 CFR part 635.
The shark research fishery was
established, in part, to maintain time
series data for stock assessments and to
meet NMFS’ research objectives. Since
the shark research fishery was
established in 2008, the research fishery
has allowed for: The collection of
fishery-dependent data for current and
future stock assessments; the operation
of cooperative research to meet NMFS’
ongoing research objectives; the
collection of updated life-history
information used in the sandbar shark
(and other species) stock assessment;
the collection of data on habitat
preferences that might help reduce
fishery interactions through bycatch
mitigation; evaluation of the utility of
the mid-Atlantic closed area on the
recovery of dusky sharks and collection
of hook-timer and pop-up satellite
archival tag (PSAT) information to
determine at-vessel and post-release
mortality of dusky sharks; and
collection of sharks to determine the
weight conversion factor from dressed
weight to whole weight.
The shark research fishery allows
selected commercial fishermen the
opportunity to earn revenue from selling
additional sharks, including sandbar
sharks. Only the commercial shark
fishermen selected to participate in the
shark research fishery are authorized to
land sandbar sharks subject to the
sandbar quota available each year. The
base quota is 90.7 metric tons (mt)
dressed weight (dw) per year, although
this number may be reduced in the
event of overharvests, if any. The
selected shark research fishery
permittees will also be allowed to land
other LCS, SCS, smoothhound, and
pelagic sharks consistent with any
restrictions established on their shark
research fishery permit. Generally, the
shark research fishery permits are valid
only for the calendar year for which
they are issued.
The specific 2019 trip limits and
number of trips per month will depend
on the availability of funding, number of
selected vessels, the availability of
observers, the available quota, and the
objectives of the research fishery, and
will be included in the permit terms at
