the designated low-use Marine
Protected Areas, (2) fishing for any of
these species using gear not specifically
allowed in the regulations, or (3) fishing

Harvested Coral Reef Taxa in the coral
reef ecosystem regulatory area, to obtain
and carry a permit. A receiving vessel
owner must also have a transshipment
permit for at-sea transshipment of coral

species. The permit application form
provides basic information about the
permit applicant, vessel, fishing gear

fishing effort, etc., for use by NMFS and
the Western Pacific Fishery
Management Council in determining
eligibility for permit issuance. The
information is important for
understanding the nature of the fishery

also aids in the enforcement of Fishery
Ecosystem Plan measures.
The two forms have been combined
and minor changes made.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or
households.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
