SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act, the
Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) has
the responsibility for the conservation
and management of marine fishery
resources. Much of this responsibility
has been delegated to the NOAA’s
National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS). Under this stewardship role,
the Secretary was given certain
regulatory authorities to ensure the most
beneficial uses of these resources. One
of the regulatory steps taken to carry out
the conservation and management
objectives is to collect data from users
of the resource. Thus, as regional
Fishery Management Councils develop
specific Fishery Management Plans
(FMP), the Secretary has promulgated
rules for the issuance and use of a
Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) and to
obtain fishery-dependent data to
monitor, evaluate, and enforce fishery
regulations.
Framework Adjustment 1 (FW1) to
the Atlantic Surf Clam and Ocean
Quahog FMP contains a VMS
requirement for surfclam and ocean
quahog vessels participating in the
individual transferable quota program
and limited access Maine mahogany
quahog vessels. VMS was identified as
a need in this fishery to (1) Eliminate
the requirement to notify NMFS Office
of Law Enforcement (OLE) via telephone
prior to beginning a fishing trip, (2)
facilitate the monitoring of areas closed
to fishing due to environmental
degradation (e.g., harmful algal blooms
and former dump sites for military
VerDate Nov<24>2008

munitions), and (3) facilitate the
monitoring of borders between state and
Federal fishing jurisdictions.
II. Method of Collection
All information is submitted
electronically through VMS units.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0558.
Form Number: None.
Type of Review: Regular submission.
Affected Public: Business and other
for-profit organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
62.
Estimated Time per Response: 1
minute per trip for VMS declaration; 5
minutes for VMS certification form; 5
minutes for telephone call to verify
proper VMS installation; 30 minutes for
VMS power-down authorization.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 100.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $31,680.
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for OMB
approval of this information collection;
they also will become a matter of public
record.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)
Office of Education (OEd) collects,
evaluates and assesses student data and
information for the purpose of selecting
successful candidates, generating
internal NOAA reports and articles to
demonstrate the success of its program.
The OEd requires applicants to its
student scholarship programs to
complete an application for NOAA
undergraduate and graduate scholarship
programs. Part of the application
package requires completion of a NOAA
student scholar reference form in
support of the scholarship application
by academic professors/advisors. NOAA
OEd student scholar alumni are also
requested to provide information to
NOAA for internal tracking purposes.
NOAA OEd grantees are required to
update the student tracker database with
the required student information. In
addition, the collected student data
supports NOAA OEd’s program
performance measures.
