Abstract:
This request is for revision and extension of an approved information collection. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) manages three commercial individual fishing quota (IFQ) programs in the U.S. southeast region. NMFS proposes administrative revisions to the red snapper, and groupers and tilefishes IFQ programs in the Gulf of Mexico. NMFS implemented these IFQ programs to reduce overcapacity in the Gulf reef fish fishery and South Atlantic wreckfish fishery, and end the derby fishing conditions that resulted from that overcapitalization. NMFS proposes revisions to the approved IFQ Online Account Application to collect additional business and demographic information, as well as to the approved Dealer Landing Transaction Report to add a requirement to input the vessel signature personal identification number (PIN) a second time if a criterion is met.

Short Statement:
The estimated time burden of the IFQ Online Account Application also increased from 10 minutes to 13 minutes per response from the addition of the demographic and business questions previously described. There was also an adjustment to the number of estimated respondents for the IFQ Online Account Application since the last approval. The number of respondents can fluctuate on a daily basis with the addition of new accounts or the closure of unused accounts. IFQ shareholders and dealers can request new accounts or request to close their existing account at any time. Similarly, wreckfish shareholders can transfer their shares at any time and leave the fishery. Accounts can also fluctuate between statuses (e.g., “ACTIVE” and “SUSPENDED”). Accounts in “SUSPENDED” status cannot perform any activities, thus are not considered active participants. However, the fluctuations do not vary widely. The number of respondents overall can vary inter and intra-annually.
