for all mackerel, squid, and butterfish
permit holders. In addition, all limited
access mackerel and longfin squid/
butterfish moratorium permit holders
must maintain a VMS unit on their
vessels and declare intent to target
Atlantic mackerel or longfin squid and
submit daily catch reports via VMS.
They must also submit daily catch
reports via VMS. Vessels that land over
20,000 lb of mackerel must notify NMFS
Office of Law Enforcement (OLE) via
VMS of the time and place of offloading
at least 6 hours prior to crossing the
VMS demarcation line on their return
trip to port, or if the vessel does not fish
seaward of the VMS demarcation line, at
least 6 hours prior to landing.
This collection also requires limited
access mackerel and longfin squid/
butterfish moratorium permit holders to
bring all catch aboard the vessel and
make it available for sampling by an
observer. If catch is not made available
to an observer before discard, that catch
is defined as slippage, and the vessel
operator must complete a ‘‘Released
Catch Affidavit’’ form within 48 hours
of the end of the fishing trip which
details why catch was slipped, estimates
the quantity and species composition of
the slipped catch, and records the time
and location of the slipped catch.
Finally, this collection requires any
vessel with a limited access mackerel
permit intending to land over 20,000 lbs
of mackerel to contact NMFS at least 48
hours in advance of a fishing trip to
request an observer. Vessels currently
contact NMFS via phone, and selection
notices or waivers are issued by NMFS
via VMS. If service providers are unable
to provide coverage, an owner, operator,
or vessel manager may request a waiver
by calling the Northeast Fisheries
Observer Program.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: Weekly, daily and on
occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under

Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent

of Mexico, South Atlantic, and
Caribbean Fishery Management
Councils, in conjunction with NOAA
Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf
States Marine Fisheries Commissions
have implemented the Southeast Data,
Assessment and Review (SEDAR)
process, a multi-step method for
determining the status of fish stocks in
the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a threestep process including: (1) Data
Workshop; (2) Assessment Process
utilizing workshops and webinars; and
(3) Review Workshop. The product of
the Data Workshop is a data report,
which compiles and evaluates potential
datasets and recommends which
datasets are appropriate for assessment
analyses. The product of the Assessment

Process is a stock assessment report,
which describes the fisheries, evaluates
the status of the stock, estimates
biological benchmarks, projects future
population conditions, and recommends
research and monitoring needs. The
assessment is independently peer
reviewed at the Review Workshop. The
product of the Review Workshop is a
Summary documenting panel opinions
regarding the strengths and weaknesses
of the stock assessment and input data.
Participants for SEDAR Workshops are
appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South
Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery
Management Councils and NOAA
Fisheries Southeast Regional Office,
HMS Management Division, and
Southeast Fisheries Science Center.
Participants include: Data collectors and
database managers; stock assessment
scientists, biologists, and researchers;
constituency representatives including
fishermen, environmentalists, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs);
international experts; and staff of
Councils, Commissions, and state and
federal agencies.
The items of discussion in the Data
Workshop agenda are as follows:
1. An assessment data set and
associated documentation will be
developed.
2. Participants will evaluate all
available data and select appropriate
sources for providing information on
life history characteristics, catch
statistics, discard estimates, length and
age composition, and fishery dependent
and fishery independent measures of
stock abundance, as specified in the
Terms of Reference for the workshop.
Although non-emergency issues not
contained in this agenda may come
before this group for discussion, those
issues may not be the subject of formal
action during this meeting. Action will
