The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) proposes to collect data to support implementation of a future trawl rationalization program. Ownership interest information would be collected from potential participants in the trawl rationalization program, including the at-sea fleet (whiting motherships, catcher vessels and catcher processors), the shore-based fleet (whiting and non-whiting permit owners and holders) and the whiting shore based processors. The primary purpose of collecting ownership information from the trawl industry is to allow NMFS to monitor control of the groundfish resource in the trawl fishery to ensure participants comply with accumulation limits, or control caps on quota share as recommended in Amendment 20 to Groundfish Fishery Management Plan. This will expedite the initial issuance process of quota share and create a baseline of ownership information to evaluate the trawl rationalization program, as required by the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. NMFS is also requesting that owners identify themselves as either "small" or "large" businesses for purposes of facilitating future Regulatory Flexibility analyses of trawl rationalization program.
