Abstract:
This request is for extension of a currently approved collection. Fishermen in federally managed fisheries in the Pacific Islands Region (central and western Pacific) are required to maintain valid fishing permits onboard their vessels at all times. The permits currently included in this collection are: Hawaii longline limited entry, American Samoa longline limited entry, Western Pacific (WP) general longline, WP receiving vessel, Pacific Remote Island Areas troll and handline, pelagic squid jig, WP bottomfish (various areas), CNMI bottomfish, Main Hawaiian Islands non-commercial bottomfish, Pacific Islands crustaceans, coral reef fishing and transshipment, WP precious coral, and coral reef special fishing and transshipment permit. Permits are generally renewed annually and are needed to identify participants in the fisheries. Permits also are important to help measure impacts of management controls on the participants in the fisheries. Appeals of permit denials, revocations, or suspensions are included.
