Federally-permitted vessels in the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery are required to identify their vessels by displaying their official number. The number is used by NOAA, the U.S. Coast Guard, and other agencies for fishery enforcement activities. Vessel identification requirements are set forth in the regulations implementing the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fisheries Management Plan at 50 CFR 660 Subpart C.

Adjustment: Based on current permit numbers and estimates of 2013 participation and vessel landings, there are fewer respondents, decreased from 1,663 to 1,125. Also, estimated materials costs per vessel have decreased from $35 to $21.40. In addition, previous NMFS estimates expected each vessel number would need to be repainted or repaired annually (one-year life span) However, recent estimates gathered from consultation with fishing vessel captains representing various gear types (pot, longline, bottom trawl, midwater trawl, at-sea processors) indicate vessel markings to have a five-year lifespan, reducing estimates of annualized burden to 69, and materials cost to $4,815.
