Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: High Seas Fishing Vessel Permit
Application, Logbook Reporting, and
Vessel Marking.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0304.
Form Number(s): NA.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 120.
Average Hours per Response: Permits,
30 minutes; logbooks, 5 minutes; vessel
marking, 45 minutes.
Burden Hours: 848.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
extension of a current information
collection. United States (U.S.) vessels
that fish on the high seas (waters
beyond the U.S. exclusive economic
zone) are required to possess a permit
issued under the High Seas Fishing
Compliance Act (HSFCA). Applicants
for this permit must submit information
to identify their vessels, owners and
operators of the vessels, and intended
fishing areas. The application
information is used to process permits
and to maintain a register of vessels
authorized to fish on the high seas.
The HSFCA also requires vessels be
marked for identification and
enforcement purposes. Vessels must be
marked in three locations (port and

starboard sides of the deckhouse or hull,
and on a weatherdeck) with their
official number or radio call sign.
Operators of vessels licensed under
the HSFCA are also required to report
their catch and fishing effort when
fishing on the high seas. The
requirement is for fishery management
purposes and to provide data to
international organizations. Vessels
already maintaining logbooks under
other specific regulations are not
required to maintain an additional
logbook.
These requirements apply to all
vessels fishing on the high seas.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organiations.
Frequency: Annually, daily and every
five years.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

Burden Hours: 1,247.
Needs and Uses: The success of
fisheries management programs
depends significantly on regulatory
compliance. The vessel identification
requirement is essential to facilitate
enforcement. The ability to link fishing
or other activity to the vessel owner or
operator is crucial to enforcement of
regulations issued under the authority
of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act. A
vessel’s official number is required to be
displayed on the port and starboard
sides of the deckhouse or hull, and on
a weather deck. It identifies each vessel
and should be visible at distances at sea
and in the air. Vessels that qualify for
particular fisheries are readily
identified, gear violations are more
readily prosecuted, and this allows for
more cost-effective enforcement.
Cooperating fishermen also use the
number to report suspicious activities
that they observe. Regulation-compliant
fishermen ultimately benefit as
unauthorized and illegal fishing is
deterred and more burdensome
regulations are avoided.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
