SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    An interim final rule was published in the Federal Register on 
March 2, 1998, that placed a prohibition on certain vessels landing 
lobster in excess of specified limits (63 FR 10154). That document 
contained two typographical errors.

Need for Correction

    As published, an incorrect section heading was listed twice on page 
10155 of the March 2, 1998, edition of the Federal Register. In the 
third column under the heading ``Sec. 697.6 Definitions.'' instruction 
number 3. should read ``In Sec. 697.7, paragraph (c) is added to read 
as follows.'' Immediately following instruction number 3, the section 
heading should read ``Sec. 697.7 Prohibitions.'' NMFS is correcting 
this error and is making no substantive change to the document in this 
action.

    Dated: March 18, 1998.
David L. Evans,
Acting Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries 
Service.
