Abstract:
Vessels in certain federally-regulated fisheries off the U.S. west coast are required to display the vessel's official number in three locations. These requirements are necessary to aid enforcement of fishery regulations. Per final rule 0648-BA49, vessels fishing on the high seas, in the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission area, will need to adopt larger vessel markings to comply with applicable regulations. Such vessels' marking will take longer, and the cost will also increase, since a great amount of paint will be needed.

Short Statement:
Previously, the burden was estimated to be 45 minutes per vessel; with these new requirements for larger letters and numbers for 125 of the vessels, the burden is estimated to be 1 hour, 30 minutes per vessel. It is likely that the majority, if not all, of the 125 vessels would be troll and pole-and-line vessels and participants in the U.S. - Canada Albacore Treaty. Additional burden: 125 x 45 minutes = 94 hours; new total burden for this information collection: 1,099 (previously 1,005). Additional cost: 125 x $9 = $1,125; new total cost is $13,095 (previously 11,970).
