resources in the sanctuary from known,
emerging, and future unknown threats.
9. Cultural Resources and Maritime
Heritage: To identify, protect, and raise
awareness of the maritime cultural,
historical, and archeological resources
within the sanctuary, this action plan
proposes to improve the sanctuary’s
collaborative partnership with members
of the Chumash community, as well as
inventory and monitor historic
shipwreck and aircraft wreck sites.
10. Operations and Administration:
This action plan addresses the necessary
operational and administrative activities
required for implementing an effective
program, including staffing,
infrastructure needs, and operational
improvements.
IV. National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) Compliance
jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
As required under the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA; 42
U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), NOAA has
prepared a DEA to evaluate the potential
impacts on the human environment of
implementing NOAA’s proposed action.
The proposed action is to update
NOAA’s management activities
conducted within CINMS that relate to
research, monitoring, education,
outreach, community engagement, and
resource protection. The proposed
management activities include revising
the sanctuary management plan and
implementing routine field activities
and existing sanctuary regulations. No
significant impacts to resources and the
human environment are expected to
result from this proposed action.
Accordingly, under NEPA, an
Environmental Assessment is the
appropriate document to analyze the
potential impacts of this action.
Following the close of the public
comment period and the satisfaction of
consultation requirements under any
applicable natural and cultural resource
statutes, NOAA will finalize its NEPA
analysis and prepare a final NEPA
document and decision document.
NOAA is seeking public comment on
the DMP and DEA, which are available
at https://channelislands.noaa.gov/
manage/plan/revision.html or may be
obtained by contacting the individual
listed under the heading FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
NOAA Fisheries, Southeast Fisheries
Science Center, annually collects
socioeconomic data from commercial
fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and
South Atlantic shrimp fisheries who
hold one or more permits for harvesting
shrimp from federal waters (U.S.
Exclusive Economic Zone). A collection
of economic information from fishers
affected by the management of federal
commercial fisheries is needed to
ensure that national goals, objectives,
and requirements of the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (MFCMA) and other
laws are met. The data is needed to
conduct socioeconomic analyses in
support of management of the shrimp
fishery and to satisfy legal requirements.
Information about revenues, variable
and fixed costs, capital investment and
other socioeconomic information is
collected from a random sample of
permit holders. The data will be used to
assess how fishermen will be impacted
by and respond to federal regulation
likely to be considered by fishery
managers. No changes are requested
with this renewal request.
