SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 26, 2024, we published a final rule
for 2024 and 2025 summer flounder and scup, and 2024 black sea bass
recreational management measures (89 FR 32374). That final rule
included one error in the background section. On page 32374, the final
rule states ``the 2024 and 2025 Federal recreational scup management
measures are a 10-inch (25.4-centimeters (cm)) minimum fish size, a 50-
fish per person possession limit, and a year-round open season.'' This
is incorrect; the Federal scup possession limit is 40 fish per person
as correctly stated in regulatory text.

1. On page 32374, in the second column, the second paragraph under
Background is corrected to read as follows:
``For scup, no changes to the Federal recreational management
measures are being implemented. The 2024 and 2025 Federal recreational
scup management measures are a 10-inch (25.4-centimeters (cm)) minimum
fish size, a 40-fish per person possession limit, and a year-round open
season.''
