or related fields.
Members shall serve in a

reimbursed for actual and reasonable
travel and other per diem expenses
incurred in performing such duties but
will not be compensated for their time.
As a Federal Advisory Committee, the
ORAP’s membership is required to be
balanced in terms of viewpoints
represented and the functions to be
performed. The OPC Co-Chairs shall
ensure that an appropriate balance of
academic, scientific, industry, and
geographical interests are represented
by the members of the ORAP. The OPC
Co-Chairs shall also make appointments
without discrimination on the basis of
age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual
orientation, disability, or cultural,
religious, or socioeconomic status.
III. Nominations

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
This request is for extension, without
change, of a current information
collection. The purpose of this
collection of information is to comply
with the requirements of the
International Dolphin Conservation
Program Act (IDCPA), 16 U.S.C. 1414.
The IDCPA amended the Dolphin
Protection Consumer Information Act
(DPCIA), 16 U.S.C. 1385. The IDCPA
and the DPCIA authorize the Secretary
of Commerce to promulgate regulations
that implement the dolphin-safe
labeling standard in the United States
(U.S.) by the collection of documents on
the dolphin-safe status of tuna import
shipments and domestic tuna product
processing; by allowing documentary
requests to allow for an effective
tracking and verification program; and
by verifying that tuna was not harvested
by a nation under embargo or otherwise
prohibited from exporting tuna to the
United States.
This collection of information also
complies with the requirements of the
Tuna Conventions Act (TCA), 16 U.S.C.
951 et seq., which was amended by the
‘‘Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated
Fishing Enforcement Act of 2015’’ (Pub.
L. 114–81). The TCA gives the Secretary
of Commerce the authority to enact
regulations to fulfill the requirement
that all member States maintain and
provide to the Inter-American Tropical
Tuna Commission (IATTC) a list of
vessels flagged by the member State and
(1) authorized by the member State to be
used for fishing for tuna and tuna-like
species in the IATTC Convention Area,
or (2) authorized by other States to be
used for fishing for tuna and tuna-like
species in their areas of jurisdiction in
the IATTC Area, and to maintain and
provide for each vessel on that list
certain information on its characteristics
and its owner and operator. The TCA
also gives the Secretary of Commerce
authority to implement fishery
management resolutions of the IATTC.
The International Dolphin
Conservation Program Act (Act) allows
entry of yellowfin tuna into the United
States (U.S.), under specific conditions,

E:\FR\FM\31AUN1.SGM

31AUN1

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 168 / Wednesday, August 31, 2022 / Notices
from nations in the International
Dolphin Conservation Program that
would otherwise be under embargo. The
Act also allows U.S. fishing vessels to
participate in the yellowfin tuna fishery
in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean
(ETP) on terms equivalent with the
vessels of other nations. NOAA collects
information to allow tracking and
verification of ‘‘dolphin-safe’’ and ‘‘nondolphin safe’’ tuna products from catch
through the U.S. market.
The information is used by NMFS, the
United States Coast Guard (USGC), and
the IATTC to monitor the size and
composition of the vessel fleets in the
IATTC Convention Area for compliance
and scientific-related purposes.
Knowing such information as the
number of vessels, the details of the
vessels and their ownership, and the
types of gear employed enables effective
monitoring of vessel activity for
enforcement and assessment purposes.
NMFS also uses this information for the
purposes of management the U.S. purse
seine fleet capacity in the IATTC
Convention Area.
This collection includes permit
applications, notifications, tuna tracking
forms, reports, and certifications that
provide information on vessel
characteristics and operations in the
ETP, the origin of tuna and tuna
products, chain of custody
recordkeeping requirements and certain
other information necessary to
implement the Act.
