Abstract:
This information collection is necessary to comply with the Marine Mammal Protection (MMPA) Act 16 U.S.C. 1371 and 1372 and the proposed rule RIN 0648-AY15 to implement these provisions within the regulations of 50 CFR 216.24 Subpart C. The MMPA contains provisions to address the incidental mortality and serious injury of marine mammals in both domestic and foreign commercial fisheries. These regulations would establish standards for evaluating a nation’s regulatory program to reduce marine mammal incidental mortality and serious injury in its fisheries that export to the United States (export fisheries). Under the proposed rule, to import fish and fish products into the United States, a nation’s exporting fisheries must apply for and receive a comparability finding from the Assistant Administrator. The proposed rule establishes procedures that a nation must follow to receive such finding for its export fishery. To receive the finding the nation must provide reasonable proof that it has adopted and is implementing in its export fishery a regulatory program governing the incidental mortality and serious injury of marine mammals in the commercial fishery that is comparable in effectiveness to the U.S. regulatory program. The nation must also provide reasonable proof that it has calculated a bycatch limit for marine mammal stocks that interacts with a fishery whose fish and fish products are exported to the U.S. and that the total incidental mortality and serious injury of marine mammals in these fisheries does not exceed that bycatch limit. The proposed rule also calls for any intermediary nation that exports fish and fish products to the U.S. to prohibit the re-exportation to the U.S. of fish and fish products from any nation’s export fishery that is subject to an import prohibition.
Emergency Justfication:
An information collection request was not submitted with the proposed rule. Therefore, this request is approved on an emergency basis with the final rule. Within 6 months, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration must submit a new information collection request and issue the required 60 and 30 day notifications in the Federal Register.
