SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 30, 2010 (75 FR 37739), a temporary rule was published adjusting the FY 2010 Trimester 2 and 3 Loligo squid quotas. The temporary rule correctly revised the Trimester 3 quota from the initial quota of 16,461,920 lb (7,467 mt) to a new quota of 23,743,619 lb, but erroneously specified the metric equivalent as 13,770 mt. The corrected metric equivalent is 10,770 mt.
