"(C) The Secretary shall revoke a permit issued under this paragraph if he finds that the permittee is not complying with the terms and conditions of the permit.". (2) Subsection (d) is amended by striking out "subsections (a)" and inserting in lieu thereof "subsections (a)(1)(A)". (8) Subsection (f) is amended— (A) by amending paragraph (1)(B) by inserting "substantial" immediately before "etching" and before "carving", and by adding at the end thereof the following new sentence: "For purposes of this subsection, polishing or the adding of minor superficial markings does not constitute substantial etching, engraving, or carving."; and (B) by adding at the end thereof the following new paragraph: "(9)(A) The Secretary shall carry out a comprehensive review of the effectiveness of the regulations prescribed pursuant to paragraph (5) of this subsection— "(i) in insuring that pre-Act finished scrimshaw products, or the raw materials for such products, have been adequately accounted for and not disposed of contrary to the provisions of this Act; and "(ii) in preventing the commingling of unlawfully imported or acquired marine mammal products with such exempted products either by persons to whom certificates of exemption have been issued under paragraph (4) of this subsection or by subsequent purchasers from such persons. "(B) In conducting the review required under subparagraph (A), the Secretary shall consider, but not be limited to— "(i) the adequacy of the reporting and records required of exemption holders; "(ii) the extent to which such reports and records are subject to verification; "(iii) methods for identifying individual pieces of scrimshaw products and raw materials and for preventing commingling of exempted materials from those not subject to such exemption; and "(iv) the retention of unworked materials in controUed-access storage. The Secretary shall submit a report of such review to the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries of the House of Representatives and the Committee on the Environment and Public Works of the Senate and make it available to the general public. Based on such review, the Secretary shall, on or before October 1, 1983, propose and adopt such revisions to such regulations as he deems necessary and appropriate to carry out this paragraph. Upon publication of such revised regulations, the Secretary may renew for a further period of not to exceed three years any certificate of exemption previously renewed under paragraph (8) of this subsection, subject to such new terms and conditions as are necessary and appropriate under the revised regulations; except that any certificate of exemption that would, but for this clause, expire on or after the date of enactment of this paragraph and before the date of the adoption of such regulations may be extended until such time after the date of adoption as may be necessary for purposes of applying such regulations to the certificate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no person may, after January 31, 1984, sell or offer for sale in interstate or foreign commerce any pre-Act finished scrimshaw product unless
