I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
The objectives of the National Sea
Grant College Program, as stated in the
Sea Grant legislation (33 U.S.C. 1121–
1131) are to increase the understanding,
assessments, development, utilization,
and conservation of the Nation’s ocean,
coastal, and Great Lakes resources. It
accomplishes these objectives by
conducting research, education, and
outreach programs.
Grant monies are available for funding
activities that help obtain the objectives
of the Sea Grant Program. Both single
and multi-project grants are awarded,
with the latter representing about 80
percent of the total grant program. In
addition to other standard grant
application requirements, three forms
are required with the grants. These are
the Sea Grant Control Form 90–2, used
to identify the organizations and
personnel who would be involved in the
grant and briefly summarize the
proposed activities under the grant; the
Project Record Form 90–1, which
collects summary data on projects; and
the Sea Grant Budget Form 90–4, which
provides information similar to, but
more detailed than on, forms SF–424A
or SF–424C.
The National Sea Grant College
Program Act (33 U.S.C. 1126) provides
for the designation of a public or private
institution of higher education,
institute, laboratory, or State or local
agency as a Sea Grant college or Sea
Grant institute. Applications are
required for designation of Sea Grant
Colleges and Sea Grant Institutes.

I. Abstract
This request is for a new information
collection.
Marine recreational anglers are
surveyed to collect catch and effort data,
fish biology data, and angler
socioeconomic characteristics. These
data are required to carry out provisions
of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), as amended,
regarding conservation and management
of fishery resources.
The For-Hire Survey (FHS) will
collect recreational fishing catch and
effort data through a telephone, Webbased data collection, and log sheet
methods. Amendments to the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
require the development of an improved
data collection program for recreational
fisheries. To meet these requirements,
NOAA Fisheries has designed a
telephone questionnaire in the
Computer Assisted Telephone Interview
(CATI) system for surveying and
collecting catch and effort data from
recreational anglers. The FHS will
sample a week’s activity from 10% of
vessels that are permitted for-hire or
charter vessel trips. Each interview will
collect the number of recreational
fishing trips, and log sheets submitted
by the permit holders will show
corresponding effort data (e.g. time at
sea, amounts of catch from each
fishery), within the sample selected
week.
