The proposed rule to implement Amendment 14 to the Atlantic Mackerel, Squid, and ButterfishFishery Management Plan proposes the following new information collection requirements: An increase in vessel trip report (VTR) submission frequency to a weekly basis (from monthly) for all MSB permits; a 48-hour pre-trip notification requirement in order to retain, possess or transfer more than 20,000 lbs of mackerel; a vessel monitoring system (VMS) requirement and daily VMS catch reporting for limited access mackerel and longfin squid/butterfish moratorium permits; a 6-hour pre-landing notification via VMS to land more than 20,000 pounds of mackerel; a requirement that MSB dealers that do not sort landings by species will document, at each transaction, how they estimate the relative composition of catch; a released catch affidavit for vessels that release catch prior to sampling by observers; a $325 per sea day contribution from limited access mackerel vessels using mid-water trawl and small-mesh bottom trawl to offset the cost of observer coverage; and observer service provider provisions.
