SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The Coastal Impact Assistance
Program (CIAP) recognizes that impacts
from Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas
activities fall disproportionately on
coastal states and localities nearest to
where the activities occur. The program
provides funds to seven states and 147
local governments to conduct a variety
of related projects, including
construction and land acquisition.
NOAA must review the projects in
accordance with the CIAP legislation
before disbursing funds. To expedite
review, NOAA developed the CIAP
Project Checklist for the construction
and land acquisition projects. The
Checklist, whose use is voluntary,
requests applicants to provide project
information to allow NOAA to
determine their eligibility under the
CIAP as well as eligibility under other
relevant statutes (NEPA, etc.).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) operates a voluntary fee-forservice seafood inspection program
(Program) under the authorities of the
Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946, as
amended, the Fish and Wildlife Act of
1956, and the Reorganization Plan No.
4 of 1970.
The regulations for the Program are
contained in 50 CFR Part 260. The
Program offers inspection grading and
certification services, including the use
of official quality grade marks which
indicate that specific products have
been Federally inspected. Qualified
participants are permitted to use the
Program’s official quality grade marks
on their products to facilitate trade of
fishery products.
The participants in the inspection
program are requested to submit specific
information pertaining to the type of
inspection services requested [Sec.
260.15]. In all cases, applicants provide
information regarding the type of
products to be inspected, the quantity,
and location of the product. There are
also application requirements if there is
an appeal of previous inspection results
[Sec. 260.36]. Participants requesting
regular inspection services on a
contractual basis also submit a contract
[Sec. 260.96]. The participants
interested in using official grade marks
are required to submit product labels
and specifications for review and
approval to ensure compliance with
mandatory labeling regulations
established by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration as well as proper use of
the Program’s marks [Sec. 260.97 (12)
and (13)].

Current regulations state requirements
for approval of drawings and
specifications prior to approval of
facilities [Sec. 260.96 (b) and (c)]. There
are no respondents under this section.
The Program will amend this part of the
regulations in a future action.
In July 1992, NMFS announced new
inspection services, which were fully
based on guidelines recommended by
the National Academy of Sciences,
known as Hazard Analysis Critical
Control Point (HACCP). The information
collection requirements fall under Sec.
260.15 of the regulations. These
guidelines required that a facility’s
quality control system have a written
plan of the operation, identification of
control points with acceptance criteria
and a corrective action plan, as well as
identified personnel responsible for
oversight of the system. The HACCP
requires continuing monitoring and
recordkeeping by the facility’s
personnel.
Although HACCP involves substantial
self-monitoring by the industry, the
HACCP-based program is not a selfcertification program. It relies on
unannounced system audits by NMFS.
The frequency of audits is determined
by the ability of the firm to monitor its
operation. By means of these audits,
NMFS reviews the records produced
through the Program participant’s selfmonitoring. The audits determine
whether the participant’s HACCP-based
system is in compliance by checking for
overall sanitation, accordance with good
manufacturing practices, labeling, and
other requirements. In addition, inprocess reviews, end-product sampling,
and laboratory analyses are performed
by NMFS at frequencies based on the
potential consumer risk associated with
the product and/or the firm’s history of
compliance with the Program’s criteria.
The information collected is used to
determine a participant’s compliance
with the program. The reported
information, a HACCP plan, is needed
only once. Other information is
collected and kept by the participant as
part of its routine monitoring activities.
NMFS audits the participant’s records
on unannounced frequencies to further
determine compliance.
II. Method of Collection
Information will be obtained via
telephone, fax, hard-copy submission,
or audit conducted by NMFS personnel.
