Summary

Amends the Endangered Species Act Amendments of 1988 to require the Secretary of Commerce to delay the effective date of certain regulations concerning sea turtle conservation to the date two years after the Secretary's submission of an independent review. (Current law delays such regulations until May 1, 1990, for inshore areas and May 1, 1989, for offshore areas.)

Requires the Secretary to modify such regulations accordingly.
