Abstract:
This collection-of-information affords an increasingly more efficient and accurate database for monitoring and management of the groundfish fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone in the waters off Alaska for purposes of conservation of the fisheries as well as for the enforcement of fisheries regulations. Parts of this collection are also used by the fishermen recording catch information on the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands crab fisheries, and the Individual Fishing Quota Program for Pacific halibut. Per Final Rule 0648-BB67, the reporting requirements for the catcher/processor longline or pot gear daily cumulative logbook (DCPL) are removed for certain catcher/processors with this action; the electronic logbook (see OMB 0648-0515) is used in place of the DCPL by freezer longliners (catcher/processors) named on License Limitation Program licenses (LLPs) endorsed to catch and process Pacific cod at sea with hook-and-line gear in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area (BSAI).
