Short Statement: Several information collections from 0489 were added. Not all the current 0489 burden was added because: 1) Burdens associated with vessel permit and the DAS baseline appeal were eliminated because these provisions were a one-time collection and are no longer necessary; 2)Burdens associated with automated polling of vessel position from 0489 associated with automated polling of vessel position for all groundfish vessels has already been accounted for in earlier collections; 3)Burdens for area and Days at Sea (DAS) declaration include a revision to an existing burden approved in 0489 due to a revision of the number of participants approved in 0501; 4)Burdens associated with modifications to exemption participation periods have been reduced when merging with 0202 because 0489 reduced the participation periods of these exemptions by half.
