SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Revision
The Federal Register notice published on March 25, 2022 (87 FR 17070), on page 17071, in the third column, Section II, that reads "NMFS will not approve loans for fisheries that are listed as overfished or subject to overfishing," is revised as follows: "The Fisheries Finance Program (FFP) will decline loans for applicants applying for funds for a vessel(s) or harvesting privilege(s) in any fishery that is not subject to a fisheries management plan that includes rebuilding or sustainable harvesting provisions consistent with the Magnuson-Stevens Conservation and Management Act to prevent overfishing and rebuild stocks to sustainable levels."
The new language represents a change of policy for all FFP lending programs.
