In the beginning of the ADDRESSES section of the proposed rule (March 18, 2026, 91 FR 12972), NMFS used an incorrect link to https://www.regulations.gov. The previous link in the proposed rule was https://www.regulations.gov/docket/NOAA-NMFS-2025-0141 rather than the correct link https://www.regulations.gov/docket/NOAA-NMFS-2025-0801 to the Federal e-Rulemaking Portal. The ADDRESSES section has been corrected in this document.
