Preliminary Finding
As detailed in the Preliminary
Decision Memorandum, we
preliminarily determine that CORE
produced in South Africa and exported
to the United States is not being
completed from Chinese-origin HRS or
CRS substrate at present, or at any point
recent enough to support the concerns
which served as the basis for the
initiation of these inquiries, and thus,
with, and hereby adopted by, this notice
(Preliminary Decision Memorandum).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This is a revision and extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
The National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) published a final rule on June
28, 2019 (84 FR 31146), to implement an
electronic monitoring (EM) program for
two sectors of the limited entry trawl
fishery, consistent with the MagnusonStevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (MSA) and the Pacific
Coast Groundfish Fishery Management
Plan (FMP). The action allows catcher
vessels in the Pacific whiting fishery
and fixed gear vessels in the shorebased
Individual Fishing Quota (IFQ) fishery
to use EM in place of observers to meet
the requirements of the Trawl
Rationalization Program for 100-percent
at-sea observer coverage. This action is
necessary to increase operational
flexibility and reduce monitoring costs
for vessels in the trawl fishery by
providing an alternative to observers.
Under this collection, some catcher
vessels will have the option to use EM
in place of observers to reduce total fleet
monitoring costs to levels sustainable
for the fleet and agency and meet the
requirements for 100-pecent observer
coverage at-sea. In place of an observer
documenting discards onboard, captains
would report estimates of their own
discards on a logbook and submit them
to NMFS. NMFS would use the discards
reported on the logbook to debit
allocations in the Vessel Accounting
System (VAS) and North Pacific
Database Program (NorPac). They would
also install and carry and EM system to
capture fishing activities at-sea.
Following the trip, an analyst would
review the video and report estimates of
discards of allocated species to NMFS to
use to audit the validity of the logbook
estimates. The EM data would also be
used to monitor compliance with the
requirements of the catch share
program. In this way, logbooks and EM
systems would be used in tandem in
place of observers to meet the objectives
of 100-percent at-sea monitoring of the
catch share program.
Vessel operators would be required to
submit a logbook reporting their
discards of IFQ species. NMFS would
use the logbook data to debit discards of
IFQ species from IFQs and cooperative
allocations, and use the EM data to

Jkt 250001

audit the logbook data. EM data would
also be used to monitor compliance
with the requirements of the catch share
program. Vessel operators would be
required to submit a logbook reporting
their discards of IFQ species.
New requirements being added to this
collection include:
EM Service Providers will be required
to submit catch reports and feedback
reports, and store EM data and other
records.
Vessel Owners will be required to
obtain services from an NMFSpermitted EM service provider to
analyze and store EM data, and report
it to NMFS.
II. Method of Collection
Information that would be required is
specified in the regulations at 50 CFR
660.603(b)(1) and 660.604(b)(1) in the
final rule 0648–BF52. Information is
collected by mail, electronically, and by
phone by the NMFS West Coast Region
Fisheries Permit Office.
The following information is collected
by mail: EM service providers: EM
service provider application and
renewals; EM service plan and any
subsequent changes to plan; submission
of two EM units and standard operating
procedures (SOPs), if requested by
NMFS; EM service provider appeals;
and EM data storage downloaded to
hard drive and shipped (not required
until 2021). Vessel owners: Initial
application; final application (EM
system certification, tentative fishing
plan, vessel monitoring plan); changes
to vessel monitoring plan; and EM
system certification; Vessel operators:
Federal discard logbook for each
landing; and hard drive submission.
The following information is collected
electronically: EM service providers: EM
provider reports of technical assistance
requests, harassment and intimidation,
and non-compliance; catch reports,
feedback reports, and EM data storage
uploaded to a secure website (not
required until 2021); Vessel operators:
One-time online EM training provided
by NMFS; and federal discard logbook
(if authorized in writing by NMFS).
The following information may be
collected by phone: EM service
providers: follow-up debriefings with
EM provider employees regarding
technical assistance, harassment and
intimidation, or non-compliance; and
ongoing program and technical support.
