SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
This is a request to renew or extend
the expiration date of this currently
approved information collection.
In accordance with the Executive
Order 12862, the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST), a
non-regulatory agency of the
Department of Commerce, proposes to
conduct a number of data collection
efforts—both quantitative and
qualitative. The data collections will be
designed to determine requirements and
evaluate the usability and utility of
NIST research for measurement and
standardization work. These data
collections efforts may include, but may
not be limited to electronic
methodologies, empirical studies, video
and audio collections, interviews, and
questionnaires. For example, data
collection efforts may include the
password generation study and the user
perceptions of online privacy and
security study. NIST will limit its
inquiries to data collections that solicit
strictly voluntary opinions or responses
and will not collect information that is
required or regulated. The results of the
data collected will be used to guide
NIST research. Steps will be taken to
ensure anonymity of respondents in
each activity covered under this request.
II. Method of Collection
NIST will collect this information by
electronic means when possible, as well
as by mail, fax, telephone and personto-person interviews.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for an extension of a
currently approved information
collection. National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS) has issued regulations
under authority of the Western and
Central Pacific Fisheries Convention
Implementation Act (WCPFCIA; 16
U.S.C. 6901 et seq.) to carry out the
obligations of the United States under
the Convention on the Conservation and
Management of Highly Migratory Fish
Stocks in the Western and Central
Pacific Ocean (Convention), including
implementing the decisions of the
Commission for the Conservation and
Management of Highly Migratory Fish
Stocks in the Western and Central
Pacific Ocean (Commission). The
regulations include a requirement for
the owners and operators of U.S. vessels
that fish for highly migratory species on
the high seas in the Convention Area to
carry and operate near real-time
satellite-based position-fixing
transmitters (‘‘VMS units’’) at all times
except when the vessel is in port. As
part of this requirement, vessel owners
and operators must transmit: (1) ‘‘on/off
reports’’ to NMFS whenever the VMS
unit is turned off while the vessel is in
port, (2) ‘‘activation reports’’ to NMFS
prior to the first use of a VMS unit, and
(3) automatic ‘‘position reports’’ from
the VMS unit to NOAA and the
Commission as part of a vessel
monitoring system (VMS) operated by
the Commission (50 CFR 300.45). Under
this information collection, it is
expected that vessel owners and
operators would also need to purchase,
install, and occasionally maintain the
VMS units.

VerDate Sep<11>2014

necessary in order to the United Stated
to satisfy its obligations under the
Convention.
II. Method of Collection
Respondents may submit on/off
reports by facsimile or email, and they
may submit activation reports by mail,
facsimile or email. Position reports are
transmitted electronically and
automatically from the VMS unit.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0648–0596.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a currently approved
collection).
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or
households.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
78.
Estimated Time per Response: VMS
unit purchase and installation, 1 hr;
activation reports, 5 min; on/off reports,
5 min; VMS unit maintenance, 1 hr.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 192 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $78,000 in capital costs and
$58,111 in recordkeeping/reporting
costs.
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
