Abstract:
The Chinook Salmon (Amendment 91) EDR program is managed primarily by the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, with support from NMFS Alaska Region, and is administered in collaboration with Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission. The EDR is a mandatory reporting requirement under 50 CFR 679.65 for all entities participating in the American Fisheries Act (AFA) BSAI pollock trawl fishery, including vessel masters and businesses that own or lease one or more AFA‐permitted vessels active in fishing or processing BSAI pollock, CDQ groups receiving allocations of BSAI pollock, and representatives of Sector entities receiving allocations of Chinook salmon prohibited species catch (PSC) from NMFS. The EDR program is comprised of three separate survey forms: • Chinook salmon PSC Allocation Compensated Transfer Report (CTR), • Vessel Fuel Survey • Vessel Master Survey The Chinook EDR Program provides information for determining the effectiveness of Amendment 91 to the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management (BSAI) Area Fishery Management Plan.

Short Statement:
Adjustments were made to update the number of respondents, and effects of improved online submission on responses. Due to low Chinook salmon PSC rates in the BSAI pollock fishery no compensated transfers, and thus no EDR verification audits, have taken place in the past three years and none are anticipated in the next three years. Revisions to the online submission forms for the Vessel Fuel Survey now allow a single individual (e.g., fleet manager, accountant) to enter data for multiple vessels at one time and have resulted in a substantial reduction in respondents and responses to the survey. Compensated Transfer Report a decrease of 1 respondents and responses, 0 instead of 1* a decrease of 40 hours, 0 instead of 40 a decrease of $3,000 in personnel costs, $0 instead of $3,000 Vessel Fuel Survey a decrease of 40 respondents and responses, 65 instead of 105 a decrease of 160 hours burden, 260 instead of 420 a decrease of $12,000 in personnel costs, $19,500 instead of $31,500 Vessel Master Survey a decrease of 16 respondents and responses, 117 instead of 133 a decrease of 64 hours burden, 468 instead of 532 a decrease of $4,800 in personnel costs, $35,100 instead of $39,900 Chinook EDR Verification a decrease of 44 respondents and responses, 0 instead of 44* a decrease of 176 hours burden, 0 instead of 176 a decrease of $13,200 in personnel costs, $0 instead of $13,200 a decrease of $4,631 in miscellaneous costs, $0 instead of $4,631 * In order to change the burden reduction to an adjustment, ROCIS required us to have at least one respondent, response and burden hour. We also kept $1 for the Verification, since it does have recordkeeping/reporting costs.
