collection is 0648-0565. Without this approval, we could not conduct this information collection. All responses to this information
collection are required to obtain or retain benefits and are required to manage commercial fishing efforts under 50 CFR part 679 and
under section 402(a) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act (16 U.S.C. 1801, et seq.) as amended by Public Law 109-479. Public reporting

PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT
Authority: The collection of this information is authorized under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act,
16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.
Purpose: NMFS uses information provided in this application to determine eligibility for the applicant to receive an Amendment 80
(A80) limited access fishery permit and to assign the permit. This permit authorizes the QS holder to catch, process, and receive
A80 species assigned to the A80 limited access fishery, or use halibut and crab prohibited species catch assigned to the A80 limited
access fishery, for the specified fishing year. The primary purpose for requesting the TIN is for the collection and reporting on any
delinquent amounts arising out of such person’s relationship with the government pursuant to the Debt Collection Improvement Act
of 1996 (Public Law 104-134). Personal information is confidential and protected under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a). Business
information may be disclosed to the public.

Notice COMMERCE/NOAA-19, Permits and Registrations for the United States Federally Regulated Fisheries. NMFS posts some
information from this form on its public website (https://alaskafisheries.noaa.gov/). In addition, NMFS may share information
submitted on this application with other State and Federal agencies or fishery management commissions, including staff of the North
Pacific Fishery Management Council and Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission. Other information is confidential under
section 402(b) of the Magnuson-Stevens Act and NOAA Administrative Order 216-100, which sets forth procedures to protect
confidentiality of fishery statistics.
Disclosure: Furnishing this information is voluntary; however, failure to provide complete and accurate information will prevent
determination of eligibility for an A80 limited access fishery permit.
