SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Under the provisions of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), the National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) is responsible
for management of the Nation’s marine
fisheries. NMFS must also promulgate
regulations, as necessary and
appropriate, to carry out obligations the
United States (U.S.) undertakes
internationally regarding tuna
management through the Atlantic Tunas
Convention Act (ATCA, 16 U.S.C. 971 et
seq.).
This collection serves as a family of
forms for Atlantic highly migratory
species (HMS) dealer reporting,
including purchases of HMS from
domestic fishermen, and the import,
export, and/or re-export of HMS,
including federally managed tunas,
sharks, and swordfish.
Transactions covered under this
collection include purchases of Atlantic
HMS from domestic fishermen; and the
import/export of all bluefin tuna, frozen
bigeye tuna, southern bluefin tuna or
swordfish under the HMS International
Trade Program, regardless of geographic
area of origin. This information is used
to monitor the harvest of domestic
fisheries, and/or track international
trade of internationally managed
species.
The domestic dealer reporting
covered by this collection includes
weekly electronic landing reports and
negative reports (i.e., reports of no
activity) of Atlantic swordfish, sharks,
bigeye tuna, albacore, yellowfin, and
skipjack tunas (collectively referred to
as BAYS tunas), and biweekly and
electronic daily landing reports for
bluefin tuna, including tagging of
individual fish. Because of the recent
development of an individual bluefin
quota (IBQ) management system (RIN
0648–BC09), electronic entry of IBQrelated landing data is required for
Atlantic bluefin tuna purchased from

PO 00000

Frm 00022

Fmt 4703

Longline and Purse seine category
vessels. NMFS intends to consider
integrating the electronic dealer
reporting for bluefin tuna and electronic
reporting for the IBQ system; however,
at this time, dealers must submit limited
bluefin tuna landings data to both
NMFS systems for purse seine and
pelagic longline vessels.
International trade tracking programs
are required by both the International
Commission for the Conservation of
Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) and the InterAmerican Tropical Tuna Commission
(IATTC) to account for all international
trade of covered species. The U.S. is a
member of ICCAT and IATTC and
required by ATCA and the Tunas
Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 951 et. seq.,
consecutively) to promulgate
regulations as necessary and appropriate
to implement ICCAT and IATTC
recommendations. These programs
require that a statistical document or
catch document accompany each export
from and import to a member nation,
and that a re-export certificate
accompany each re-export. The
international trade reporting
requirements covered by this collection
include implementation of catch
document, statistical document, and reexport certificate trade tracking
programs for bluefin tuna, frozen bigeye
tuna, and swordfish. An electronic catch
document program for bluefin tuna
(EBCD) was recommended by ICCAT
and implemented by the United States
in 2016 (0648–BF17). U.S. regulations
implementing ICCAT statistical
document and catch document
programs require statistical documents
and catch documents for international
transactions of the covered species from
all ocean areas, so Pacific imports and
exports must also be accompanied by
statistical documents and catch
documents. Since there are statistical
document programs in place under
other international conventions (e.g., the
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission), a
statistical document or catch document
from another program may be used to
satisfy the statistical document
requirement for imports into the United
States.
Dealers who internationally trade
Southern bluefin tuna are required to
participate in a trade tracking program
to ensure that imported Atlantic and
Pacific bluefin tuna will not be
intentionally mislabeled as ‘‘southern
bluefin’’ to circumvent reporting
requirements. This action is authorized
under ATCA, which provides for the
promulgation of regulations as may be
necessary and appropriate to carry out
ICCAT recommendations.

SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
This request is for a new information
collection.
The NOAA Fisheries Office of Science
and Technology’s Economics and Social
Analysis Division seeks to conduct

assessments of the social and economic
impacts from hurricanes and other
climate related natural disasters on
commercial and recreational fishing
industries in the eastern, gulf coast and
Caribbean territories of the United
States. It seeks to collect data on the
immediate and long-term disruption
and impediments to recovery of normal
business practices to the commercial
and recreational fishing industries. Data
would be collected from commercial
and recreational for hire fishermen, fish
dealers, bait and tackle stores, marinas
and other businesses dependent on the
fishing industry for livelihood. The data
will improve research and analysis of
potential fishery management actions by
understanding the immediate effects
and/or long-term compounding effects
of natural disasters on communities
most dependent on commercial and
recreational fishing. This data collection
is consistent with the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act and essential for
implementing National Standard 8,
which calls for the sustained
participation of fishing communities.
II. Method of Collection
This information will be collected by
telephone, on-line, and in person.
