You may review a Privacy Act statement regarding Coast Guard public dockets in the January 17, 2008, issue of the Federal Register (73 FR 3316). Previous Request for Comments This request provides a 30-day comment period required by OIRA. The Coast Guard published the 60-day notice (77 FR 6571, February 8, 2012) required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That Notice elicited one comment response. The commenter noted the importance of this information elicitation, and recommended executing similar survey efforts on a recurring basis. More specifically, the commenter recommended that: 1. The survey instructions be clarified and remind respondents about the potential to receive a raffle prize. The Coast Guard revised the introductory paragraph in response to this recommendation. 2. The survey include a question asking for the proportion or percentage of time spent in each fishery. The Coast Guard did not act on this recommendation because this information could not be used in the scope of the survey design. 3. The survey include an additional question asking the most recent date of active fishing. The Coast Guard has added a question the survey to determine the activity level of the respondent in their primary fishery in response to this recommendation. 4. The survey include questions asking respondents directly about their activity in the fishery instead of asking about trends the fisherman has observed in other fishermen. The Coast Guard did not act on this recommendation because this survey approach was chosen deliberately to reduce social-desirability bias in responses. 5. The survey include indications of whether different forms of Coast Guard enforcement has been encountered by E:\FR\FM\11JNN1.SGM 11JNN1 34398 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 112 / Monday, June 11, 2012 / Notices srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES the respondent. Since the Coast Guard has not adjusted the survey to the comment outlined in #4, this recommendation does not apply as respondents are not specifically asked about their own experiences with Coast Guard enforcement. 6. The survey clarify what animals are managed under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. The Coast Guard chose to not change this question because (1) an exhaustive list of all marine mammals fishermen are likely to encounter would be prohibitively long, and not listing marine mammals could prevent respondents from answering the question correctly and (2) the majority of fishermen already understand what species are covered under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.. 7. The Coast Guard modify the responses to the question ‘‘If a National Marine Sanctuary exists in the area where you fish, how doe its existence impact the abundance of the fishery’s target species?’’ The Coast Guard has modified this question in response to this recommendation. 8. The Coast Guard provide a single direct link to the survey that does not require respondents to go through the Federal Register. This was the original intent of the Coast Guard, the PRA package has been modified to correctly reflect this. 9. The Coast Guard include an option for paper surveys to be delivered by mail to those who request one. Providing a paper survey option is cost prohibitive. The Coast Guard shares the respondent’s desire to maximize the population for which this survey is accessible, and therefore will consider alternate options such as providing internet access during public events to complete the survey. 10. The survey period be extended to better accommodate fishermen whose peak fishing coincides with the survey time. The Coast Guard agrees with this comment and will keep the survey open for an adequate period of time to facilitate survey responses from all fisheries participants.

Previous Request for Comments

    This request provides a 30-day comment period required by OIRA. The 
Coast Guard published the 60-day notice (77 FR 6571, February 8, 2012) 
required by 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2). That Notice elicited one comment 
response. The commenter noted the importance of this information 
elicitation, and recommended executing similar survey efforts on a 
recurring basis. More specifically, the commenter recommended that:
    1. The survey instructions be clarified and remind respondents 
about the potential to receive a raffle prize. The Coast Guard revised 
the introductory paragraph in response to this recommendation.
    2. The survey include a question asking for the proportion or 
percentage of time spent in each fishery. The Coast Guard did not act 
on this recommendation because this information could not be used in 
the scope of the survey design.
    3. The survey include an additional question asking the most recent 
date of active fishing. The Coast Guard has added a question the survey 
to determine the activity level of the respondent in their primary 
fishery in response to this recommendation.
    4. The survey include questions asking respondents directly about 
their activity in the fishery instead of asking about trends the 
fisherman has observed in other fishermen. The Coast Guard did not act 
on this recommendation because this survey approach was chosen 
deliberately to reduce social-desirability bias in responses.
    5. The survey include indications of whether different forms of 
Coast Guard enforcement has been encountered by

[[Page 34398]]

the respondent. Since the Coast Guard has not adjusted the survey to 
the comment outlined in 4, this recommendation does not apply 
as respondents are not specifically asked about their own experiences 
with Coast Guard enforcement.
    6. The survey clarify what animals are managed under the Marine 
Mammal Protection Act. The Coast Guard chose to not change this 
question because (1) an exhaustive list of all marine mammals fishermen 
are likely to encounter would be prohibitively long, and not listing 
marine mammals could prevent respondents from answering the question 
correctly and (2) the majority of fishermen already understand what 
species are covered under the Marine Mammal Protection Act..
    7. The Coast Guard modify the responses to the question ``If a 
National Marine Sanctuary exists in the area where you fish, how doe 
its existence impact the abundance of the fishery's target species?'' 
The Coast Guard has modified this question in response to this 
recommendation.
    8. The Coast Guard provide a single direct link to the survey that 
does not require respondents to go through the Federal Register. This 
was the original intent of the Coast Guard, the PRA package has been 
modified to correctly reflect this.
    9. The Coast Guard include an option for paper surveys to be 
delivered by mail to those who request one. Providing a paper survey 
option is cost prohibitive. The Coast Guard shares the respondent's 
desire to maximize the population for which this survey is accessible, 
and therefore will consider alternate options such as providing 
internet access during public events to complete the survey.
    10. The survey period be extended to better accommodate fishermen 
whose peak fishing coincides with the survey time. The Coast Guard 
agrees with this comment and will keep the survey open for an adequate 
period of time to facilitate survey responses from all fisheries 
participants.
