Abstract:
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Alaska Region requests an extension of the currently approved information collection for the Annual Alaska Chinook Salmon Economic Data Report (Chinook Salmon EDR). The Chinook Salmon EDR, also known as the Amendment 91 EDR, was implemented in 2012 (77 FR 5389, February 3, 2012) to evaluate the effectiveness of Chinook salmon bycatch management measures for the Bering Sea pollock fishery that were implemented under Amendment 91 to the FMP (75 FR 53025, August 30, 2010). The Chinook Salmon EDR Program provides information to the NMFS analysts and the Council staff and is intended to be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the Chinook Salmon Incentive Plan Agreement (IPA) (see Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control No. 0648-0401). The Chinook Salmon EDR Program is intended to evaluate where, when, and how pollock fishing and salmon bycatch occur and to provide data to study and verify conclusions drawn by industry in the IPA annual reports. The collection is not changed in applicability to respondents, online submission methods, or the information collected. However, the number of respondents, and responses, has decreased likely due to difficult fishing conditions. In addition, the hourly cost rate for respondent labor is decreased to reflect guidance on use wage rates, which results in a reduction in the cost estimate. Additional detail on governments costs has also been included in this supporting statement.

Short Statement:
Based on 2019 data, the most recent year for which this collection has been completed, total respondents and responses have decreased from 182 to 150. This 32-response reduction is likely due to reduced fishing effort in recent years, as fishing conditions and the physical size of pollock have declined (see discussion of Question 12). Burden hours per response have remained the same as in the previous renewal. However, the decline in responses results in a reduction in burden hours from 728 to 600, or a reduction of 128 burden hours. Miscellaneous costs were added as they were inadvertently omitted in the previous renewal submission.
