Abstract:
Regulations at 50 CFR 648.8 and ยง 697.8 require that owners of vessels over 25 ft (7.6 m) in registered length that have Federal permits to fish in the Greater Atlantic Region display the vessel's name and official number. The name and number must be of a specific size at specified locations: the vessel name must be affixed to the port and starboard sides of the bow and, if possible, on its stern. The official number must be displayed on the port and starboard sides of the deckhouse or hull, and on an appropriate weather deck so as to be clearly visible from enforcement vessels and aircraft. The display of the identifying characters aids in fishery law enforcement

Short Statement:
The number of respondents, federally permitted commercial fishing vessels, has been adjusted downward by 1,245 respondents due to the current number of permitted vessels currently listed in the permit database that are greater than or equal to 25 feet in overall length. The total number of respondents in now estimated to be 3,675 entities per year. As a result, this extension is estimated to have a reduction of 934 burden hours and to cost $12,450 less than the previous renewal.
