PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT

Authority: The collection of this information is authorized under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, 16 U.S.C 1801 et seq.

Purpose: In order to manage U.S. fisheries, the NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service uses economic data reports (EDRs) under the Gulf of Alaska Trawl EDR Program to collect baseline information to inform the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (NPFMC) when making conservation and management decisions. The primary purpose for requesting costs and revenues from each participant is to develop baseline information on harvesters, processors, and communities. NOAA and the NPFMC will use this information in aggregate form.

Routine Uses: The Department will use this information to identify fishery participants and assess management impacts on harvesters, processors, and the surrounding communities. Disclosure of this information is permitted under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. Section 552a), to be shared within NMFS offices, in order to coordinate monitoring and management of sustainability of fisheries and protected resources, as well as with the applicable State or Regional Marine Fisheries Commissions and International Organizations. Disclosure of this information is also subject to all of the published routine uses as identified in the Privacy Act System of Records Notice COMMERCE/NOAA-16, Economic Data Reports for Alaska Federally Regulated Fisheries off the Coast of Alaska.

Disclosure: Furnishing this information is required to retain federal fishing permits or federal processing permits; failure to provide complete and accurate information will result in NMFS revoking these permits.

Introduction

This report collects information on shoreside processor and stationary floating processor (SFP) operations that process groundfish from Gulf of Alaska (GOA) groundfish trawl fisheries. Each owner or leaseholder of a shoreside processor or SFP with a Federal Processor Permit (FPP) that receives delivery of groundfish from vessels fishing with trawl gear in the GOA must submit an Annual Shoreside Processor EDR form for that calendar year.

A completed EDR must be submitted for each calendar year on or before June 1 of the following year. An EDR must be timely and all information fields must be accurately completed according to instructions in this form.

All required reports must be submitted to the NMFS Data Collection Agent, Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission electronically or by mail at the address provided below.

EDR Validation

To make sure that each company is consistently and accurately completing the EDR, an audit may be performed by a qualified accountant for the purpose of validating the data reported in this form. This step will ensure that the data can be relied upon to produce accurate and reliable information for the Alaska groundfish trawl fisheries.

If selected for validation, auditors will verify the data report by comparing specific elements of the report with your accounting records. To make this process as efficient and non-intrusive as possible, we suggest that you:

1. Keep a copy of the completed EDR or certification pages you submit. Copy and attach extra sheets as needed.

2. Keep a file that has all of the supporting information used in the preparation of the EDR.

3. Make sure that the EDR agrees to the company’s highest level of financial information. For this purpose, the highest level of financial information is defined in order as:

a. Audited financial statements

b. Reviewed financial statements

c. Compiled financial statements

d. Tax returns.
