Abstract:
NMFS seeks to renew an existing logbook information and cost-earnings data collection from fishermen who possess permits to fish for highly migratory species (HMS). The revision would: 1) decrease the overall number of respondents based on recent information, 2) decrease the number of Atlantic tunas, shark, swordfish, and HMS Charter/Headboat permit holders based on recent information, 3) increase the number of Dolphin/Wahoo commercial and Charter/Headboat permit holders, and 4) decrease the burden estimate associated with the cost-earnings and logbook forms. The information collected in logbooks and the cost-earnings form will help NMFS identify impacts of proposed regulatory measures on fishermen and the resource, consistent with applicable law such as the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and the Regulatory Flexibility Act.

Short Statement:
All changes are due to adjustments in estimates. NMFS proposes a decrease of 1,151 hours to the total net annual burden hours. The decrease in burden hours is attributed to the decreased number of permit holders. The total number of permit holders decreased from 29,858 to 29,501. The largest decrease occurred with the HMS Charter/Headboat permits, decreasing by 226 permits (4,167 to 3,941 (see the supporting statement for a more detailed breakout of changes to estimates). These revised estimates result in a total cost decrease of $3,119.00 ($2,936.00 + $183.00 + $1.20). NOTE: Rounding down of hours and costs in ROCIS resulted in a further decrease of 1 hour and $1.
