Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) to
implement catch and/or fishing effort
limits for management unit species
(MUS) caught by pelagic fisheries in the
American Samoa, Guam, and the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands (hereinafter, the U.S. territories).
The process also allows NMFS to
authorize the government of each U.S.
territory to allocate a specific amount of
MUS to a U.S. fishing vessel permitted
under the FEP through a specified
fishing agreement, not to exceed the
amount made available for allocation by
NMFS. Funds provided by U.S. fishing
vessels through a specified fishing
agreement are deposited into the
Western Pacific Sustainable Fisheries
Fund (SFF) to support fisheries
development projects listed in a marine
conservation plan of a U.S. territory
submitted to and approved by the
Secretary of Commerce.
Data gathered under a specified
fishing agreement will include the
identity of fishing vessels subject to the
agreement, the amount (weight) of MUS
or fishing effort to which the agreement
applies, and the amount of monetary
contributions that fishing vessel, subject
to the agreement, will deposit into the
SFF, if applicable. Additionally,
specified fishing agreements must be
signed by an authorized official of the
U.S. territory or designated
representative, and be signed by each
vessel owner or designated
representative. There is no form for an
agreement.
NMFS will use the data collected to
determine vessel eligibility, and ensure
the amount of MUS or fishing effort
available for allocation to a U.S. fishing
vessel is consistent with the Pelagic
FEP, the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act and
other applicable laws, and the
conservation needs of the stock.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; business or other for-profit
organizations; State or Territorial
government.
Frequency: Annual.
Respondent’s Obligation: To submit a
complete specified fishing agreement
that includes the information set forth
in federal regulations at 50 CFR 665.819.

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: International Billfish Angler
Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0020.
Form Number(s): NOAA Form 88–10.
Type of Request: Regular.
Number of Respondents: 600.
Average Hours per Response: 5
minutes.
Burden Hours: 50.
Needs and Uses: The International
Billfish Angler Survey began in 1969
and is an integral part of the Billfish
Research Program at the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s (NOAA) Southwest
Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC). The
survey tracks recreational angler fishing
catch and effort for billfish in the Pacific
and Indian Oceans in support of the
Pacific and Western Pacific Fishery
Management Councils, authorized
under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
(MSA). The data are used by scientists
and fishery managers to assist with
assessing the status of billfish stocks.
The survey is intended for anglers
cooperating in the Billfish Program and
is entirely voluntary. This survey is
specific to recreational anglers fishing
for Istiophorid and Xiphiid billfish in
the Pacific and Indian Oceans; as such
it provides the only estimates of catch
per unit of effort for recreational billfish
fishing in those areas.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: Once annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: $0 in
recordkeeping/reporting costs.

Title: Marine Recreational Information
Program, Access-Point Angler Intercept
Survey (APAIS).
OMB Control Number: 0648–0659.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 100,000.
Average Hours per Response: 0.083.

the APAIS are used to estimate the
finfish catch per angler of recreational
saltwater fishers. These APAIS

derived from independent but
complementary surveys of fishing effort,
the Fishing Effort Survey and the ForHire Survey, to estimate total, state-level
fishing catch by species. These
estimates are used in the development,
implementation, and monitoring of
fishery management programs by the
NMFS, regional fishery management
councils, interstate marine fisheries
commissions, and state fishery agencies.
These data are required to carry out
provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), as
amended, regarding conservation and
management of fishery resources.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
