Terms of Clearance:
The National Marine Fisheries Service assumes that the addition of 28 categories of forage species to the vessel trip report will not result in an increase in burden. Upon renewal of this control number or no later than three years, whichever is earlier, NMFS must consult with respondents as to whether this assumption is valid, describe in the supporting statement, and upwardly revise burden estimates if appropriate.

Abstract:
Fishing vessels permitted to participate in federally permitted fisheries in the Northeast Region are required to submit logbooks containing catch and effort information about their fishing trips. Participants in the tilefish and open access herring fisheries are also required to make reports on the catch through an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. In addition, vessels fishing under the Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP) or Mid-Atlantic Research Set-Aside (RSA) programs are required to submit research catch information through the IVR system. This revision would require vessel operators of Federally permitted fishing vessels that catch a set of previously unmanaged forage species within Mid-Atlantic Federal waters to report the catch of these species or species groups in trip-level logbooks. New species and species groups codes would be created to facilitate the reporting of these species and species groups. The information submitted is needed for management of the fisheries.
