Abstract:
This information collection covers the Economic Data Report (EDR) requirements of the NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Services' Alaska Region Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) Crab Rationalization (CR) Program. The CR Program is a catch share program that allocates BSAI crab resources among harvesters, processors, and coastal communities. The purpose of the crab EDRs is to gather economic information to analyze the economic effects of the CR Program and the economic performance of participants in the program, and to estimate impacts of future issues, problems, or proposed revisions to the program. The data collected through the EDRs are used to prepare reports, program reviews, and analysis of proposed revisions to the Crab Rationalization Program. The EDRs include cost, revenue, ownership, and employment data in order to study the economic impacts of the CR Program on harvesters, processors, and affected communities.

Short Statement:
The number of respondents for the Catcher Vessel EDRs and Catcher/Processor EDRs were inadvertently reversed in the currently approved supporting statement. The number of respondents for the Catcher Vessel EDRs and Catcher/Processor EDRs were inadvertently reversed in the currently approved supporting statement. 1. More respondents are expected to submit the certification page (4 increased from 3) than the full EDR (18 decreased from 19). 2. The burden hours per response decreased from 2 hrs to 1 hr. Fewer verifications of data are expected because automated validation routines now allow PSMFC to identify most errors and obtain corrections from submitters shortly after EDRs are submitted. Adjustments to the annual burden costs were a result of changes in the number of respondents and increases in photocopy and postage costs.
