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.

    Dated: October 20, 2022.

Director, NMFS Office of Management and Budget.
