document proposing to list the Gulf of Mexico Bryde's whale as an 
endangered species under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA). This 
document

[[Page 92761]]

corrects an error regarding the January 30, 2017, scheduled close date 
of the public comment period and identifies that comments must be 
received by February 6, 2017. This document also corrects the reference 
number used to identify public comments submitted electronically 
through the Federal eRulemaking portal.

DATES: Comments on the proposed rule published in the Federal Register 
on December 8, 2016 (81 FR 88639), must be received by February 6, 
2017.

document, identified by the code NOAA-NMFS-2014-0157 by any of the 
following methods:
     Electronic Submissions: Submit all electronic comments via 
the Federal eRulemaking Portal. Go to www.regulations.gov/#!docketDetail;D=NOAA-NMFS-2014-0157, click the ``Comment Now!'' icon,

Correction

    The proposed rule that published in the Federal Register on 
December 8, 2016 (81 FR 88639) contained the wrong closure date for the 
public comment period. The original language incorrectly stated that 
the public comment period would close on January 30, 2017. This date 
does not allow for a 60-day public comment period. Therefore, we are 
correcting the date and inserting the date of February 6, 2017, 
allowing for a 60-day public comment period. We are also correcting the 
Federal Docket Management System reference number associated with this 
proposed rule so that public comments submitted electronically through 
www.regulations.gov will be associated correctly with this proposed 
rule.
    In the proposed rule (81 FR 88639) published on December 8, 2016, 
the DATES and ADDRESSES sections are corrected as set above in this 
document.

    Dated: December 15, 2016.

Fisheries Service.
