Abstract:
This is a request for a renewal and revision of a currently approved information collection. FMPs for Federal Fisheries managed under the National Ocean and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are developed under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). There are changes to this collection due to the duplication of collection accounting of the Northeast region permit family of forms, 0648-0202, which have been removed from this collection. These forms include: any forms related to Vessel Monitoring Systems (VMS); VMS Power Down Exemption; Exemption Programs Authorized for Federal Permit Holders, such as transfers at sea for Atlantic mackerel; permit applications; replacement/upgrades; and confirmation of permit history. The collection accounting for VTR submission has been added to the 0679-0212 collection. There are no changes to any other information collections other than updated permit holder numbers.
