River on the Agreement’s enrolled
property, which is commonly known as
the Hart Ranch. The Little Shasta River
is a tributary to the Shasta River, which
is a tributary to the Klamath River,
California. The duration of the
agreement and Permit 21008 is 10 years.
Permit 21008 authorizes the
incidental taking of the covered species
associated with routine agricultural
activities, implementation of
restoration/enhancement activities, and
the potential future return of the
enrolled property to the agreement’s
Baseline and Elevated Baseline
Conditions. Under the Agreement, the
permit holder specifies the restoration
and/or enhancement, and management
activities to be carried out on the
enrolled property and a timetable for
implementing those activities. NMFS
reviewed the agreement and determined
that the agreement will result in a net
conservation benefit for the covered
species and meets all required standards
of NMFS’ Safe Harbor Policy (64 FR
32717). The agreement adopts Baseline
and Elevated Baseline Conditions
(Section 3 of the agreement) and
includes restoration/enhancement
activities that will be completed by the
permit holder to achieve the Elevated
Baseline Condition. The agreement also
contains a monitoring component that
requires the permit holder to ensure
compliance with the terms and
conditions of the agreement, and to
ensure the Baseline and Elevated
Baseline levels of habitat for the covered
species occur on the enrolled property.
Results of the monitoring efforts will be
provided to NMFS by the permit holder
in annual reports for the duration of the
10-year permit term.
Near the end of the permit term and
agreement, Permit 21008 authorizes the
permit holder incidental take associated
with a return to Baseline and Elevated
Baseline Conditions if desired and in
compliance with the terms and
conditions of the Permit.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
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.
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Visitor Center and Exhibit
Surveys at the Office of National Marine
Sanctuaries and Partner Outreach
Facilities.
OMB Control Number: 0648–xxxx.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (request for
a new information collection).
Number of Respondents: 8,400.
Average Hours per Response: 4
minutes.
Burden Hours: 560.
Needs and Uses: This request is for a
new collection of information. NOAA’s
Office of National Marine Sanctuaries
(ONMS) is conducting research to
measure the public’s opinions about
sanctuary visitor centers, exhibits, and
kiosks. Exhibits and kiosks covered
under the survey can be permanent or
traveling/temporary. The survey will be
administered annually both within
ONMS visitor centers as well as at
partner venues that host an exhibit or
kiosk on a national marine sanctuary or
marine national monument. The survey
will cover visitor centers, exhibits, and
kiosks system-wide across all the
national marine sanctuaries and marine
national monuments managed or comanaged by NOAA’s ONMS.
The visitor survey will be conducted
to obtain an objective analysis of visitor
experiences within a sanctuary visitor
center or at a partner venue that
includes an exhibit or kiosk with
information on a national marine
sanctuary or marine national
monument. Information will be
obtained on visitor satisfaction with the
overall exhibits or kiosks, graphics,
multi-media products, interactives,
along with the overall feelings about the
facilities and services offered at the
centers/venues. The survey will acquire
data on the effectiveness of sanctuary/
monument messaging, awareness about
and use of sanctuary/monument
resources, as well as additional
recreational and/or educational
opportunities available to the public.
Lastly, the survey will include questions
about visitor demographics.

collection. Under the provisions of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), NOAA’s National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is
responsible for management of the
nation’s marine fisheries. Existing
regulations require operators of
tournaments involving Atlantic highly
migratory species (HMS; Atlantic
swordfish, sharks, billfish, and tunas) to
register four weeks in advance of the
tournament. Operators must provide
contact information and the
tournament’s date(s), location(s), and
target species. If selected by NMFS,
operators are required to submit an
HMS tournament summary report
within seven days after tournament
fishing has ended. Most of the catch
data in the summary report is routinely
collected in the course of regular
tournament operations. NMFS uses the
data to estimate the total annual catch
of HMS and the impact of tournament
operations in relation to other types of
fishing activities. In addition, HMS
tournament registration provides a
method for tournament operators to
request educational and regulatory
outreach materials from NMFS.
II. Method of Collection
Operators have the choice of
registering and reporting online or by
electronic or paper forms. Methods of
submittal include online submission
(registering/reporting), email of
electronic forms, and mail and facsimile
transmission of paper forms.

Management Plan of the South Atlantic
Region addressing modifications to the
South Atlantic Charter/Headboat for
Snapper-Grouper permit.
DATES: The series of scoping meetings
will be held from October 9 through

revised schedule. All meetings will
begin at 6 p.m. See SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION for specific dates and
times.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
original notice published in the Federal
Register on August 31, 2018 (83 FR
44575). This notice revises the dates and
locations of the scoping meetings.
Public scoping comments are being
solicited for measures proposed in draft
Amendment 47 to the Snapper Grouper
Fishery Management Plan of the South
Atlantic Region addressing
modifications to the federal South
Atlantic Charter/Headboat for SnapperGrouper permit (for-hire permit). Public
scoping occurs early in the amendment
development process and the Council is
soliciting input on proposed options
that include a moratorium on for-hire
permits, options for the start date of a
moratorium, exceptions for eligibility,
transferability of for-hire permits,
options to allow new entrants,
establishing a for-hire permits pool,
creating multiple for-hire permit types,
and implementing a time limit or sunset
provision for a moratorium on for-hire
permits. Options are also being
considered for modifying the current
permit condition that specifies a harvest
prohibition on snapper grouper species
in state water when the species is closed
to harvest in federal waters, issuing a
for-hire permit for an individual rather
than a vessel, and attaching a consistent
identifying number to the federal forhire permit in a similar manner as is
applied to limited entry permits.
Council staff will provide an overview
of options being considered for draft
Snapper Grouper Amendment 47 and
answer questions during each scoping
meeting. Public comments will be
accepted at each scoping meeting
location on the specified date.
