The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35).
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Alaska Region Scale and Catch
Weighing Requirements.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0330.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (extension of
a currently approved information
collection).
Number of Respondents:
Average Hours per Response:
Burden Hours:
Needs and Uses: Scale and catch
weighing requirements address
performance standards designed to
ensure that all catch delivered to the
processor is accurately weighed and
accounted for. Scale and catch-weighing
monitoring is required for Western
Alaska Community Development Quota
Program (CDQ) catcher/processors (C/
Ps), American Fisheries Act (AFA) C/Ps,
AFA motherships, AFA shoreside
processors and stationary floating
processors, Central Gulf of Alaska
Rockfish Program trawl C/Ps, non-AFA
trawl C/Ps participating in Bering Sea
and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) trawl
fisheries, and longline C/Ps
participating in BSAI Pacific cod
fisheries.
National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) has identified three primary
objectives for monitoring catch. First,
monitoring must ensure independent
verification of catch weight, species
composition, and location data for every
delivery by a catcher vessel or every pot
by a C/P. Second, all catch must be
weighed accurately using NMFS-

PO 00000

approved scales to determine the weight
of total catch. Third, the system must
provide a verifiable record of the weight
of each delivery. To effectively manage
fisheries, NMFS must have data that
will provide reliable independent
estimates of the total catch.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: Annually, and daily for
fishing period.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefit.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
