PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT INFORMATION
Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 20 minutes per response, including time for
reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and
completing and reviewing the collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any
other aspects of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Pacific Islands
Regional Administrator, NOAA Fisheries Service, 1845 Wasp Blvd., Building 176, Honolulu, Hawaii 968185007.
This information is being collected to provide information needed by NMFS to regulate and monitor fishing
activities in the monument area and to evaluate the effectiveness of management by assessing the status of
stocks and the status of fisheries. The information will provide a basis for determining whether changes in
management are needed to sustain the productivity of the stocks or to respond to interactions between fishing
vessels and protected species. The information is also used to provide a basis for evaluating the magnitude and
distribution of impacts resulting from changes to the regulations. Responses to the collection are required under
50 CFR 665.14. Proprietary data provided concerning the vessel and/or business of the responders are handled
as confidential under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Sec. 402(b)), and
NOAA Administrative Order 216-100. Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to
respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information
subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection of information displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number.

VESSEL REPORTING OBLIGATION REQUIREMENTS
The operator of any fishing vessel subject to the requirements of the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 50,
Section 665.14 must maintain onboard the vessel an accurate and complete record of catch, effort, and other
data on logsheet forms provided by the Regional Administrator. All information specified on the logsheet must
be recorded on the form within 24 hours after the completion of each fishing day. Each logsheet must be signed
and dated by the fishing vessel operator. The original logsheet must be submitted to the National Marine
Fisheries Service within 30 days of the end of each fishing trip. Submit daily fishing logsheet reports to:
