Abstract:
This request is for renewal of an existing information collection, which supports transfer of License Limitation Program (LLP) licenses for the commercial groundfish, crab, and scallop fisheries. The intended effect of the LLP is to limit the number of participants and reduce fishing capacity in fisheries in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) off Alaska. This information collection contains three elements: the application used to transfer crab and groundfish LLP licenses and an Aleutian Islands trawl endorsement, the application to transfer scallop LLP licenses, and the process for transfer appeals. The transfer applications are submitted on an as-needed basis to request transfer to an eligible receiver. A transfer appeal is submitted if the application is deficient or if the applicant fails to submit the specified information within a reasonable period. Since the application period and selection process for the LLP ended, no new licenses are issued—they may only be obtained through a transfer.

Short Statement:
IC Groundfish, Crab, and Scallop Transfers was broken up into 2 ICs (Application for the transfer of Groundfish and Crab, and Application for the Transfer of Scallop) in order to allow for increased granularity. The number of respondents was adjusted to reflect that both the transferor and transferee are respondents and miscellaneous costs increased to reflect the costs for typical inclusive general office services.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$1,549
