[Federal Register Volume 63, Number 81 (Tuesday, April 28, 1998)] [Rules and Regulations] [Pages 23226-23227] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 98-11244] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 50 CFR Parts 222 and 227 [Docket No. 961217358-6358-01; I.D. 041995B] RIN 0648-XX77 Threatened Fish and Wildlife; Change in Listing Status of Steller Sea Lions Under the Endangered Species Act; Correction AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce. ACTION: Final rule; correction. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: This document corrects the preamble to a final rule (I.D. 041995B) published in the Federal Register of May 5, 1997, regarding the Change in the Listing Status of Steller Sea Lions under the Endangered Species Act. This correction clarifies the scope of this final rule. DATES: April 27, 1998. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Margot Bohan, NMFS/FPR, 301-713-2322. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Need for Correction As published, a description was inappropriately inserted in the last sentence of the summary section describing the populations affected by this listing change. This error changed the intent of the final rule by appearing to focus only on the U.S. population segment of Steller sea lions, as opposed to focusing on the Steller sea lion species throughout its entire range. Accordingly, the publication of the final rule FR Doc. 97-11668, that [[Page 23227]] published on May 5, 1997 (62 FR 24345), is corrected as follows: On page 24345, in the third column, in the last line of the summary, remove ``U.S.'' before the words ``Steller sea lion population.'' Dated: April 22, 1998. Rolland A. Schmitten, Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries Service. [FR Doc. 98-11244 Filed 4-27-98; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3510-22-F
