Abstract:
Final Rule RIN 0648-BF57 NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is proposing a change to the 0648-0202 family of forms to add a new information collection requirements for federally permitted fishing vessels. This information collection will remain unchanged, with the exception of a new gear code that will be available for selection when completing a trip report in the vessel monitoring system (VMS). There will be no burden added, and no additional public cost burden associated with this change.
