Management Plan (FMP). The New
England Fishery Management Council
prepared the FMP pursuant to the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(MSA). The regulations implementing
the FMP are specified at 50 CFR part
648 Subpart F. The NE multispecies
DAS leasing requirements at § 648.82(k)
form the basis for this collection of
information.
The NE Multispecies Days-at-Sea
(DAS) Leasing Program was
implemented in 2004 as a result of
Amendment 13 (69 FR 22906) which
substantially reduced the number of
DAS available for the NE multispecies
vessels. To mitigate some of the adverse
impact associated with the reduction in
DAS, the NE Multispecies Leasing
Program was developed to enable
vessels to increase their revenue by
either leasing additional DAS from
another vessel to increase their
participation on the fishery, or by
leasing their unused allocated DAS to
another vessel.
NMFS requests DAS leasing
application information in order to
process and track requests from
allocation holders to transfer DAS to
another vessel. This information, upon
receipt, results in an increasingly more
efficient and accurate database for
management and monitoring of fisheries
of the Northeastern U.S. EEZ. The DAS
leasing downgrade information is
collected to allow vessel owners that are
eligible to lease NE Multispecies DAS a
one-time downgrade in their baseline
specifications to their current vessel
specifications. This one-time downgrade
provides greater flexibility for vessel to
lease their DAS.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: On occasion, one time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or maintain benefits.

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: Puget Sound Recreational
Shellfish Harvesting Survey.
OMB Control Number: None.
Form Number(s): NA.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(request for a new information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 1,974
Average Hours per Response: Initial
telephone contact, 3 minutes; survey, 30
minutes.
Burden Hours: 538.
Needs and Uses: This request is for a
new collection of information.
The Puget Sound estuary provides
one of the most valuable shellfish
habitats in the Pacific Northwest.
Shellfish are important economically,
ecologically, and socially to the Puget
Sound basin. While shellfish bed
closures have decreased area-wide,
persistent closures continue in certain
locations, affecting local growers and
restricting commercial and recreational
harvest opportunities. The Puget Sound
Partnership (Partnership), a Washington
State agency established to facilitate the
conservation and restoration of Puget
Sound, has set a priority to reduce the
risks of shellfish growing area closures
and adverse effects on human health.
The Partnership’s Action Agenda, the
blueprint for action to restore and
protect Puget Sound, has set a goal for
a net increase of 10,800 harvestable
shellfish acres by 2020.
In support of the Partnership’s pursuit
of this goal, the Northwest Fisheries
Science Center is undertaking an
economics research project to assess the
behavior of individual shellfish
harvesters in response to the opening
and closing of individual shellfish
beaches for human health reasons, and
how these actions affect the value of
shellfish harvesting. The Puget Sound
Recreational Shellfish Harvesting

Project (PSRSHP) will provide critical
economic data related to recreational
shellfish harvesting. More specifically,
the PSRSHP will collect data needed to
assess (1) the socioeconomic
characteristics of recreational shellfish
harvesting participants; (2) the
economic value of access to Puget
Sound beaches for recreational shellfish
harvesting through statistical estimation
of models; and (3) the potential changes
in these values stemming from possible
changes in management policies related
to human health that affect the status of
particular shellfish harvesting areas.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: One time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

Notice and Opportunity for
Public Comment.
ACTION:
Pursuant to Section 251 of the Trade
Act 1974, as amended (19 U.S.C. 2341
et seq.), the Economic Development
Administration (EDA) has received
petitions for certification of eligibility to
apply for Trade Adjustment Assistance
from the firms listed below.
Accordingly, EDA has initiated
investigations to determine whether
increased imports into the United States
of articles like or directly competitive
with those produced by each of these
firms contributed importantly to the
total or partial separation of the firm’s
workers, or threat thereof, and to a
decrease in sales or production of each
petitioning firm.
