Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 144 / Monday, July 27, 2020 / Notices
Needs and Uses: NOAA’s National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)
manages the Sea Turtle Disentanglement
Network (STDN) to respond to sea turtle
entanglement in active or discarded
fishing gear (in particular those
involving the vertical line of fixed gear
fisheries), marine debris, or other line in
the marine environment. Entanglement
has the potential to cause serious injury
or mortality, which would negatively
impact the recovery of endangered and
threatened sea turtle populations. The
STDN’s goals are to increase reporting,
to reduce serious injury and mortality to
sea turtles, and to collect information
that can be used for mitigation of these
threats. As there is limited observer
coverage of fixed gear fisheries, the
STDN data are invaluable to NMFS in
understanding the threat of
entanglement and working towards
mitigation.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; Business or other for-profit
organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government; Federal government.
Frequency: Variable depending on
reports of entanglement incidents; up to
78 cases annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: 16 U.S.C. 35,
Endangered Species Act of 1973.
