SUMMARY:

VerDate Sep<11>2014

21:51 Dec 19, 2025

Jkt 268001

On November 21, 2025, the Secretary
of Commerce (Secretary) received a
‘‘Notice of Appeal’’ filed by BJG
Properties LLC pursuant to the Coastal
Zone Management Act (CZMA), 16
U.S.C. 1451 et seq., and implementing
regulations found at 15 CFR part 930,
subpart H. The ‘‘Notice of Appeal ’’ is
taken from an objection by the New
York State Department of State to a
consistency certification for a pending
permit application to the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers to install a dock and
boat lift in Little Peconic Bay, Suffolk
County, NY.
Under the CZMA, the Secretary may
override the New York State Department
of State’s objection on grounds that the
project is consistent with the objectives
or purposes of the CZMA, or otherwise
necessary in the interest of national
security. To make the determination
that the proposed activity is ‘‘consistent
with the objectives or purposes of the
CZMA,’’ the Secretary must find that:
(1) the proposed activity furthers the
national interest as articulated in
sections 302 or 303 of the CZMA, in a
significant or substantial manner; (2) the
national interest furthered by the
proposed activity outweighs the
activity’s adverse coastal effects, when
those effects are considered separately
or cumulatively; and (3) no reasonable
alternative is available that would
permit the proposed activity to be
conducted in a manner consistent with
the enforceable policies of the
applicable coastal management
program. 15 CFR 930.121. To make the
determination that the proposed activity
is ‘‘necessary in the interest of national
security,’’ the Secretary must find that a
national defense or other national
security interest would be significantly
impaired if the proposed activity is not
permitted to go forward as proposed. 15
CFR 930.122.
II. Request for Public and Federal
Agency Comments
We encourage the public and
interested federal agencies to participate
in this appeal by submitting written
comments and any relevant materials
supporting those comments using the

without change. All personally
identifiable information (e.g., name,
address), confidential business
information, or otherwise sensitive
information submitted voluntarily by
the sender will be publicly accessible.

comments (enter ‘‘N/A’’ in the required
fields if you wish to remain
anonymous).
III. Opportunity for Public Hearing
The Secretary may hold a public
hearing on this appeal, either in
response to a written request for a
public hearing or upon their own
initiative. You may submit a request for
a public hearing using the method
specified in the ADDRESSES section of
this notice. A written request for a
public hearing must include an
explanation for why you believe a
public hearing would be beneficial and
aid the decision-maker. If a hearing is
held, advance notice of the time, date,
and location of the public hearing will
be published in the Federal Register.
The public and federal agency comment
period will also be reopened for a 10day period following the hearing to

Needs and Uses: The National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS), Alaska
Regional Office, is requesting renewal of
the currently approved information
collection for the Economic Data
Reporting for the Bering Sea and
Aleutian Island Crab Rationalization
Program (CR Program). The CR Program
is a limited access privilege program
managed under the authority of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(Magnuson-Stevens Act), the
Consolidated Appropriations Act of
2004 (Pub. L. 108–199, Sec. 801), and
the Fishery Management Plan for Bering
Sea/Aleutian Islands King and Tanner
Crab (FMP). The CR Program allocates
crab among harvesters, processors,
Western Alaska Community
Development Quota groups, and coastal
communities for nine crab fisheries. The
CR Program also includes a
comprehensive economic data
collection program requiring
participants to complete annual
Economic Data Reports (EDRs). These
EDRs are intended to aid the North
Pacific Fishery Management Council
(Council) and NOAA’s National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) to assess the
performance of the CR Program and to
develop amendments to the FMP or
regulations to mitigate any unintended
consequences of the CR Program.

NMFS has designated Pacific States
Marine Fisheries Commission (PSMFC)
as the Data Collection Agent for the CR
Program. NMFS and PSMFC administer
the crab EDR program under the
guidance of the Council. The crab EDR
program collects annually reported cost,
revenue, ownership, and employment
data from harvest and processing sector
participants in the CR Program fisheries.
This information is necessary to monitor
and assess the economic effects of the
CR Program and support rigorous
economic analysis to promote the goals
and objectives of the Magnuson-Stevens
Act and the FMP.
Participation in the crab EDR program
is mandatory under Federal fisheries
regulations at 50 CFR 680.6 for all active
vessel and processing sector
participants in the CR Program fisheries.
This information collection contains
the three EDRs used by participants in
the CR Program: Catcher Vessel Crab
EDR, Catcher/Processor Crab EDR, and
Processor Crab EDR. An EDR is required
from any owner or leaseholder of a
vessel or processing plant, or a holder
of a registered crab receiver permit that
harvested, processed, custom processed,
or obtained custom processing for CR
Program crab in specified Bering Sea
and Aleutian Islands crab fisheries
during the prior calendar year. The
EDRs are submitted annually and are
due on or before July 31 of the following
year. Additional information on the crab
EDR program is available on the PSFMC
website at http://www.psmfc.org/
alaska_crab/.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations, Not-for-profit
organizations.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: Participation in the
crab EDR program is mandatory under
Federal fisheries regulations at 50 CFR
680.6 for all active vessel and
processing sector participants in the CR
Program fisheries.
