mammals. This EFP would authorize up to 9 participating vessels in 2021 and 12
participating vessels in 2022 to test ropeless systems in the Gulf of Maine Regulated Mesh Area gillnet and Lobster Management Areas 1 and 3
lobster trap/pot. Blue Planet Strategies is requesting exemptions from the following requirements:
1. Gear marking requirements at 50
CFR 697.21b2 to allow for the use of a single buoy marker on a trawl of more than three traps; and 2. Gear marking requirements at 648.84b to allow for the use of a single buoy marker on a gillnet.
The participating gillnet fishermen typically fish 21 nets not longer than 300 ft 91.44 m. One end of the gillnet will be marked according to regulations, the other end will test a lift bag system.
The participating lobster harvesters fish between 2 and 45 traps per trawl in depths ranging from 50 to 300 ft 15.24
to 91.44 m. One end of approximately 4 trawls per vessel will be marked according to regulations, the other end will use either a lift bag system, a buoy and stowed rope system, or a spooled rope system. Both gillnet and lobster gear will test either acoustic or modem gear marking technology. A maximum of 100 gillnet deployments are anticipated in 2021 and 140
deployments are expected in 2022, with a soak time of 96 hours. A maximum of 200 lobster trap trawl deployments are anticipated in 2021 and 800 are expected in 2022, with a maximum soak time of 48 days. Sampling would largely occur from June to October in both 2021 and 2022, though the permit has been requested through December 2022. Initial deployments would be overseen by an engineering team.
We published a proposed rule 85 FR
86878 on December 31, 2020 that would modify the Atlantic Large Whale Take Reduction Plan regulations at 229. The proposed rule included a new seasonal restricted area that falls within Area 1 that would be closed to buoy lines from October through January but would allow ropeless fishing. A final rule is expected to be published later in 2021. Should the closure be implemented and should investigators wish to access this area, additional EFP terms and conditions may be required.
If approved, Blue Planet Strategies may request minor modifications and extensions to the EFP throughout the study. EFP modifications and extensions may be granted without further notice if they are deemed essential to facilitate completion of the proposed research and have minimal impacts that do not change the scope or

I. OMD33, Ensuring Workplace Health and Safety in Response to a Public Health Emergency The FCC is establishing OMD33, Ensuring Workplace Health and Safety in Response to a Public Health Emergency, a system of records under the Privacy Act of 1974. The FCC is committed to providing all FCC staff with a safe and healthy work environment and to that end it may develop and institute additional safety measures in response to a public health emergency. These measures may include instituting activities such as requiring FCC staff and visitors to provide information before being allowed access to an FCC facility, medical screening, and contact tracing.
Contact tracing conducted by FCC staff may involve collecting information about FCC staff and visitors who are exhibiting symptoms or who have tested positive for an infectious disease in order to identify and notify other FCC
staff and visitors with whom they may have come into contact and who may have been exposed. Moreover, the FCC
will use contact tracing data to submit required reports to local public health officials, in accordance with local public health mandates.
Information will be collected and maintained in accordance with the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and regulations and guidance published by the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

U.S.C. 552a, a system of records is defined as a group of any records under the control of a Federal government agency from which information about individuals is retrieved by name or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual. The Privacy Act establishes the means by which government agencies must collect, maintain, and use information about an individual in a government system of records.
Each government agency is required to publish a notice in the Federal Register in which the agency identifies and describes each system of records it maintains, the reasons why the agency uses the information therein, the routine uses for which the agency will disclose such information outside the agency, and how individuals may exercise their rights under the Privacy Act.
