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: Monitoring Programs for Vessels
in the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0500.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (extension of
a currently approved information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 268.
Average Hours Per Response: For
providers: 15 minutes for observer
training/briefing/debriefing registration,
notification of observer physical
examination, observer status reports,
other reports on observer harassment,
safety concerns, or performance
problems, catch monitor status reports,
and other catch monitor reports on
harassment, prohibited actions, illness
or injury, or performance problems; 5
minutes for observer safety checklist
submission to NMFS, observer provider
contracts, observer information
materials, catch monitor provider
contracts, and catch monitor
informational materials; 10 minutes for
certificate of insurance; 7 minutes for
catch monitor training/briefing
registration, notification of catch
monitor physical examination, and
catch monitor debriefing registration.
For vessels: 10 minutes for fishing
departure reports and cease-fishing
reports.
Burden Hours: 619.
Needs and Uses: In 2011, NMFS
mandated observer requirements for the
West Coast groundfish trawl catch
shares program. For all fishery sectors,
observers must be obtained through
third-party observer provider companies
operating under permits issued by
NMFS. The regulations at §§ 660.140
(h), 660.150 (j), 660.160 (g), specify
observer coverage requirements for
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
trawl vessels and define the
responsibilities for observer providers,
including reporting requirements.
Regulations at § 660.140 (i) specify
requirements for catch monitor coverage
for first receivers. Data collected by
observers are used by NMFS to estimate
total landed catch and discards, monitor
the attainment of annual groundfish
allocations, estimate catch rates of
prohibited species, and as a component
in stock assessments. These data are
necessary to comply with the
Magnuson-Stevens Act requirements to
prevent overfishing. In addition,
observer data is used to assess fishing
related mortality of protected and
endangered species.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: Annually, weekly and on
occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under
review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this

collection programs contribute to legally
mandated analyses required under the

Conservation and Management Act
(MFCMS), the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA), the Regulatory
Flexibility Act (RFA), and Executive
Order 12866 (E.O. 12866).
