BILLING CODE 3510–22–P
The Cooperative Game Fish Tagging
Program was initiated in 1971 as part of
a comprehensive research program
resulting from passage of Public Law
86–359, Study of Migratory Game Fish,
and other legislative acts under which
the National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) operates. The Cooperative
Tagging Center attempts to determine
the migration patterns of, and other
biological information for, billfish,
tunas, and swordfish. The fish tagging
report is provided to the angler with the
tags, and he/she fills out the card with
the information when a fish is tagged
and mails it to NMFS. Information on
each species is used by NMFS to
determine migratory patterns, distance
traveled, stock boundaries, age, and
growth. These data are necessary input
for developing management criteria by
regional fishery management councils,
states, and NMFS.

I. Abstract
This request is for a regular
submission (extension of a currently
approved information collection).
The National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) Southeast Region manages the
U.S. fisheries in the exclusive economic
zone (EEZ) of the South Atlantic,
Caribbean, and Gulf of Mexico regions
under various Fishery Management
Plans (FMPs). The Regional Fishery
Management Councils prepared the
FMPs pursuant to the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens
Act). The regulations implementing the
FMPs are located at 50 CFR part 622.
The recordkeeping and reporting
requirements in 50 CFR part 622 form
the basis for this collection of
information. Requirements that fishing
gear be marked are essential to facilitate
enforcement. The ability to link fishing
gear to the vessel owner is crucial to
enforcement of regulations issued under
the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens
Act. The marking of fishing gear is also
valuable in actions concerning damage,
loss, and civil proceedings. The
requirements imposed in the Southeast
Region are for coral aquacultured live
rock; golden crab traps; mackerel gillnet
floats; spiny lobster traps; black sea bass
pots; and buoy gear.
