    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is proposing a new rule under the Fishery Management Plan for Puerto Rico, which focuses on changing the annual catch limits (ACLs) for the triggerfish stock complex in Puerto Rico's federal waters. This is part of efforts to prevent overfishing and achieve the best use and conservation of these fish resources. The proposed rule intends to decrease the total ACL from 90,552 pounds to 87,220 pounds, affecting both commercial and recreational fishing limits. Public comments on this proposal are invited until January 16, 2025.

    The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is announcing its plan to revise and extend an information collection related to feral swine, as mandated by the 2014 Farm Bill. This survey aims to assess the damage caused by feral swine in several states to both crops and livestock, with past surveys indicating significant economic impact. NASS plans to gather data from farm and ranch operators via mail and phone, with a total estimated response burden of 9,700 hours annually. The survey supports a $20 million program to help states manage the rapidly growing population of feral swine. Public comments on this notice are invited until April 9, 2021.
