NMFS requests information from tilefish individual fishing quota (IFQ) permit holders in order to process applications VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:02 Aug 09, 2012 Jkt 226001 to ensure that IFQ allocation owners are provided a statement of their annual catch quota, and for enforcement purposes, to ensure vessels are not exceeding an individual quota allocation. In conjunction with the application, NMFS also collects IFQ share accumulation information to ensure that an IFQ limited access privilege holder does not acquire an excessive share of the total limited access privileges, as required by section 303A(c)(5)(D) of the MSA.

NMFS also collects information for cost recovery purposes as required under the MSA to collect fees to recover the costs directly related to management, data collection and analysis, and enforcement of IFQ programs. Lastly, NMFS collects landings information to ensure that the amounts of tilefish landed and ex-vessel prices are properly recorded for quota monitoring purposes and the calculation of IFQ fees, respectively.

The ASF is an option for grantees for the establishment or reorganization of zones and can permit significantly greater flexibility in the designation of new subzones or ‘‘usagedriven’’ FTZ sites for operators/users located within a grantee’s ‘‘service area’’ in the context of the Board’s standard 2,000-acre activation limit for a zone. The application was submitted pursuant to the Foreign-Trade Zones Act, as amended (19 U.S.C. 81a–81u), and the regulations of the Board (15 CFR part 400). It was formally filed on August 6, 2012. FTZ 90 was approved by the Board on November 4, 1983 (Board Order 230, 48 FR 52108, 11–16–1983) and expanded on March 12, 1999 (Board Order 1030, 64 FR 14212, 3–24–1999). The current zone includes the following site: Site 1 (22 acres)—Woodard Industrial Park, Steelway Boulevard, Clay. The grantee’s proposed service area under the ASF would be Onondaga, Cayuga, Oswego and Madison Counties, New York, as described in the application. If approved, the grantee would be able to serve sites throughout the service area based on companies’ needs for FTZ designation. The proposed service area is within and adjacent to the Syracuse Customs and Border Protection port of entry. The applicant is requesting authority to reorganize its existing zone project by removing existing Site 1 and designating two new sites as ‘‘magnet’’ sites: Proposed Site 2 (339.41 acres)—Clay Business Park, NYS Route 31 and Caughdenoy Road, Clay, Onondaga County; and, Proposed Site 3 (35.98 acres)—Port of Oswego, 1 East Second Street, Oswego, Oswego County. The application would have no impact on FTZ 90’s previously authorized subzones. In accordance with the Board’s regulations, Elizabeth Whiteman of the FTZ Staff is designated examiner to evaluate and analyze the facts and information presented in the application E:\FR\FM\10AUN1.SGM 10AUN1

    National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Northeast Region manages 
the tilefish fishery of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) of the 
Northeastern United States, through the Tilefish Fishery Management

    The recordkeeping and reporting requirements at Sec.  648.294 form 
the basis for this collection of information. NMFS requests information 
from tilefish individual fishing quota (IFQ) permit holders in order to 
process applications to ensure that IFQ allocation owners are provided 
a statement of their annual catch quota, and for enforcement purposes, 
to ensure vessels are not exceeding an individual quota allocation. In 
conjunction with the application, NMFS also collects IFQ share 
accumulation information to ensure that an IFQ limited access privilege 
holder does not acquire an excessive share of the total limited access 
privileges, as required by section 303A(c)(5)(D) of the MSA.
    NMFS requests transfer application information to process and track

(permanent and temporary) to another entity. NMFS also collects

collection and analysis, and enforcement of IFQ programs. Lastly, NMFS 
collects landings information to ensure that the amounts of tilefish 
landed and ex-vessel prices are properly recorded for quota monitoring 
purposes and the calculation of IFQ fees, respectively. Having this
