This action involves continuing an inspection program for modified pound net leaders in the Virginia waters of the mainstem Chesapeake Bay. Pound net fishermen must call the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to arrange for a meeting. Then, fishermen must meet NMFS and allow for the inspection of his or her gear to ensure the modified leader meets the definition of a modified pound net leader, as described in the regulations. This inspection program is necessary to provide fishermen with the assurance that their leaders meet the regulatory definition of a modified pound net leader before setting their gear, provide managers with the knowledge that the offshore leaders in a portion of the Virginia Chesapeake Bay are configured in a turtle-safe manner, and aid in enforcement efforts. The respondents will be Virginia pound net fishermen. This collection of information will end when Final Rule 0648-BB37 becomes effective and will be replaced by training (consult the April 17, 2014 proposed rule (79 FR 21695) for details on the inspection program cessation).
