Title: Florida Fishing and Boating
Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0769.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(revision and extension of a current
information collection).
Number of Respondents: 3,120.
Average Hours per Response: 0.05
hours (3 minutes).
Total Annual Burden Hours: 156.
Needs and Uses: This request is for an
extension and revision of a currently
approved information collection and is
sponsored by NOAA’s Southeast
Fisheries Science Center (SEFSC).
The objective of the data collection
effort under OMB Control Number
0648–0769 is to understand how anglers
and boaters respond to changes in trip
costs and/or fishing regulations in
Florida (both in waters of the Gulf of
Mexico and South Atlantic Ocean). This
will improve the analysis of the
economic effects of proposed changes in
fishing regulations and changes in
economic factors that affect the cost of
fishing and boating such as fuel prices.
The survey will be used to develop
predictive models that forecast how
fishing and boating effort changes when
either trip costs change or when fishing
regulations (season length or bag limits)
change. The survey will ask about the
number of trips anglers take under
current costs and regulations and
anticipated number of trips when costs
and/or regulations change.
The population to be surveyed
consists of anglers and boat owners with
a license to fish in the Gulf of Mexico
or South Atlantic from Florida. The
sample will be drawn from a list of
licensed Florida anglers and registered
Florida boat owners. Anglers/boat
owners will be emailed an invitation to
the online survey that directs them to a
website to complete the survey. Changes
proposed to the collection include the
addition of respondents on the Atlantic
Coast of Florida, adapting the survey to
ask about all federally managed fish in
the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico, and
removing the mail component and
financial incentives of the survey.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: Twice per calendar year.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for extension, with no
changes, to a currently approved
information collection. The National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA) collects vessel
license, vessel registration, catch, and
unloading information from operators of
U.S. purse seine vessels fishing under
the provisions of the Treaty on Fisheries
between the Governments of Certain
Pacific Island States and the
Government of the United States of
America (Treaty). The Treaty provides
access for U.S. purse seine vessels to
fish in the exclusive economic zones
(EEZs) of Pacific Island Parties to the
Treaty (PIPs). The PIPs include
Australia, Cook Islands, Federated
States of Micronesia, Fiji, Kiribati,
Marshall Islands, Nauru, New Zealand,
Niue, Palau, Papua New Guinea, Samoa,
Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and
Vanuatu. This collection of information
is required to meet U.S. obligations
under the Treaty.
The South Pacific Tuna Act of 1988
(16 U.S.C. 973–973r) and U.S.
implementing regulations (50 CFR part
300, subpart D) authorize the collection
of information from U.S. purse seine
vessels fishing in the EEZs of PIPs under
the Treaty. Vessel operators must
submit annual vessel license and
registration (including registration of
vessel monitoring system (VMS) units)
applications and periodic written
reports of catch and unloading of fish
from licensed vessels. They are also
required to ensure the continued
operation of VMS units on board
licensed vessels, which is expected to
require periodic maintenance of the
units. The information collected is
submitted to the Pacific Islands Forum
Fisheries Agency (FFA) through the U.S.
government, NOAA’s National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS). The license
and registration application information
is used by the FFA to determine the
operational capability and financial
responsibility of a vessel operator
interested in fishing under the Treaty.
Information obtained from vessel catch
PO 00000
Frm 00033
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
54481
and unloading reports is used by the
FFA to assess fishing effort and fishery
resources in the region and to track the
amount of fish caught within each PIP’s
EEZ. Maintenance of VMS units is
needed to ensure the continuous
operation of the VMS units, which, as
part of the VMS administered by the
FFA, are used as an enforcement tool. If
the information is not collected, the U.S.
government will not meet its obligations
under the Treaty, and the lack of fishing
information will result in poor
management of the fishery resources.
II. Method of Collection
All information will be submitted in
hard copy via mail or through electronic
reporting.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0218.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
21.
Estimated Time per Response: License
application, 1 hour; VMS registration
application, 45 minutes; catch report, 1
hour; unloading logsheet, 30 minutes,
expression of interest, 2 hours and
renewal, 15 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 207.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $76,706 in recordkeeping/
reporting costs.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: 16 U.S.C. 973–973r.
IV. Request for Comments
We are soliciting public comments to
permit the Department/Bureau to: (a)
Evaluate whether the proposed
information collection is necessary for
the proper functions of the Department,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (b) Evaluate the
accuracy of our estimate of the time and
cost burden for this proposed collection,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
Evaluate ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) Minimize the
reporting burden on those who are to
respond, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
