The NMFS Southeast Regional Office
manages three commercial IFQ and
individual transferable quota (ITQ)
programs in the Southeast Region under
the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act), 16 U.S.C.
1801 et seq. The IFQ programs for red
snapper, and grouper and tilefish occur
in Federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico,
and the ITQ program for wreckfish
occurs in Federal waters of the South
Atlantic.
This collection of information tracks
the transfer and use of IFQ and ITQ
shares, and IFQ allocation and landings
necessary to operate, administer, and
review management of the IFQ and ITQ
programs. Regulations for the IFQ and
ITQ programs are located at 50 CFR part
622.
The NMFS Southeast Regional Office
also proposes to revise parts of the
information collection approved under
OMB Control Number 0648–0551 to
account for updates to burden time and
cost estimates, as well as administrative
updates to online and paper forms.
NMFS intends the revisions would
make instructions and data collection
requirements clearer and easier to
understand, resulting in more accurate
and efficient information available for
use by fishery managers.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or
households.
Frequency: Annually, quarterly and
on occasion.
