    (b) The relevant Native American whaling organization shall monitor 
the whale hunt and keep tally of the number of whales landed and struck. 
When a quota is reached, the organization shall declare the whaling 
season closed, and there shall be no further whaling under that quota 
during the calendar year. If the organization fails to close the whaling 
season after the quota has been reached, the Assistant Administrator may 
close it by filing notification in the Federal Register.
