Abstract:
Vessels issued Atlantic sea scallop fishery permits are required to provide certain information and submit specific forms to enable effective management of the scallop fishery and vessel owners to complete transactions with other scallop permit holders. The collection requirements under OMB Control No. 0648-0491 enable successful implementation and administration of components of the Fishery Management Plan (FMP). This current extension includes the same information collection requirements as previously, except that it removes the collection of Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) requirements that are now collected under OMB Control No. 0648-0202.
