SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Southcentral Alaska Subsistence Regional 
Advisory Council will meet at 3601 C Street, Suite 1030, Anchorage, 
Alaska on Friday, December 8, 2006, at 9 a.m., Alaska Standard Time, to 
establish a subcommittee with the charge of evaluating various options 
for providing a priority for the subsistence harvest of fish from the 
Federal public lands and waters of the Kenai Peninsula. This meeting is 
open to the public.
    This meeting will be held with less than the normal 15-day notice. 
The holding of this meeting of the Southcentral Regional Council on 
December 8, 2006, is in the best interest of the public because there 
is an overwhelming need to establish a subcommittee to evaluate fishery 
issues on the Kenai Peninsula prior to the Southcentral Regional 
Council's next regularly scheduled meeting in mid-March. The timing 
would allow the newly established subcommittee time to evaluate various 
proposals, options and alternatives prior to the Southcentral Regional 
Council meeting in March.

    Authority: Title VIII of the Alaska National Interest Lands 
Conservation Act (ANILCA), 16 U.S.C. 3101-3126.

    Dated: November 21, 2006.
Peter J. Probasco,
Acting Chair, Federal Subsistence Board.
