of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on June 21,
2023 during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments.
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
Commerce.
Title: Analysis of and Participation in
Ocean Exploration Video Products.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0748.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(revision of a current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 4,100 total
(3,100 unique respondents).
Average Hours per Response: 10
minutes.
Burden Hours: 714.
Needs and Uses: NOAA Ocean
Exploration (OER) is the only federal
organization dedicated to ocean
exploration. By using unique
capabilities in terms of personnel,
technology, infrastructure, and
exploration missions, OER is reducing
unknowns in deep-ocean areas and
providing high-value environmental
intelligence needed by NOAA and the
nation to address both current and
emerging science and management
needs. Through live video and data
streams, online coverage, training
opportunities, and events, we allow
scientists, resource managers, students,
members of the general public, and
others to actively experience ocean
exploration, allowing broader scientific
participation, and cultivating the next
generation of ocean explorers, and
engaging the public in exploration
activities. To better understand our
ocean, our office makes exploration data
available to the public. This allows us,
collectively, to more effectively
maintain ocean health, sustainably
manage our marine resources, accelerate
our national economy, and build a
better appreciation of the value and
importance of the ocean in our everyday
lives. It is only through leveraging
resources internally and externally that
we can truly achieve our mission.
Since the inception of NOAA’s
exploration program in 2001, OER data
management has been guided by the
2000 President’s Panel Report
recommendations which prioritized
rapid and unrestricted data sharing as
one of five critical exploration program
components. More recently, Public Law

reinforced and expanded OER data
management objectives, continuing to
stress the importance of sharing unique
exploration data and information to
improve public understanding of the
oceans, and for research and
management purposes.
Telepresence satellite communication
from the ship to shore brings the
unknown ocean to the screens of both
scientists and the general public in their
homes, schools or offices in near real
time. With technology constantly
evolving, it is important to address the
needs of the shore-based scientists and
public to maintain a high level of
participation. We use voluntary surveys
to identify the needs of users of data,
best approaches to leverage expertise of
shore-based participants for meaningful
public engagement focused on ocean
exploration.
The five forms used to collect
information are as follows: (1) Sailing
Contact Information. This form is sent to
the few scientists that directly sail on
NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer. The
ship’s operational officer needs certain
information such as: if a sailing
individual has securely submitted their
proper medical documents to NOAA’s
Office of Marine and Aviation
Operations; if the person is up to date
with required security documents, such
as a passport, if the ship is traveling to
a foreign port; any dietary restrictions so
that the person will be served food that
is safe. (2) Okeanos Explorer
Participation Assessment. This
voluntary form is sent to the scientists
that sailed on or participated remotely
in any Okeanos Explorer cruise funded
by OER to record any feedback they
wish to provide to the office about their
experience. The office uses their
feedback in assessments for improving
the utility and experience of these
scientific guests sailing on the Okeanos
Explorer. (3) EX Collaboration Tools
Feedback. This voluntary form is sent to
members of the marine scientific
community at the beginning of a fiscal
year to ask if members would like to
participate in any of the upcoming
cruises and to what degree, such as
simply asking to be included in emailed
updates or if they want to be on a direct
line to the ship for remotely operated
vehicle dive operations. (4) Citizen
Scientist. This voluntary form is
available to general members of the
public and is used for members to
improve the annotation efforts when
watching short video clips of 30 seconds
to 5 minutes. (5) Science Lead Interest.
This voluntary form will be used to
solicit interest from the scientific
community to serve as a Science Lead

on one of NOAA Ocean Exploration’s
expeditions.
The first forms described above will
include minor revisions, and the fifth
form is a new addition. The Sailing
Contact Information form will be
revised to include updated
informational attachments (e.g., links to
updated COVID guidance, medical
clearance, underwater cultural heritage
protocols) and updated expedition
names and dates for a given calendar
year. The Okeanos Explorer
Participation Assessment will be revised
to replace some technical/scientific
questions with questions that relate to
communication, leadership, and
workplace climate. The EX
Collaboration Tools form will be revised
to include updated informational
attachments (e.g., underwater cultural
heritage protocols) and updated
expedition names and dates for a
calendar year. The Citizen Scientist
form will be updated for expedition
names and dates for a calendar year.

PIRO-permits@noaa.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal
regulations at 50 CFR 665.816 allow
NMFS to re-issue permits for the
American Samoa pelagic longline
limited entry program if the number of
permits falls below the maximum
allowed. At least 25 permits are
available for issuance in the following
permit size classes, as follows:
• 17 in Small (vessels up to 50 feet or
15.24 meters in overall length); and
• 8 in Large (vessels overall length 50
feet or 15.24 meters and longer).
Please note that the number of
available permits may change before the
application period closes. Applicants
must specify the permit size class (one
only) for which they are applying on the
application form.
If there are more applications than
available permits in a particular size
class, the Regional Administrator shall
issue permits to persons according to
the following priority standard:
(i) Priority accrues to the person with
the earliest documented participation in
the pelagic longline fishery in the
Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) around
SUMMARY:

American Samoa from smallest to
largest vessel; and
(ii) In the event of a tie in the priority
ranking between two or more
applicants, the applicant whose second
documented participation in the pelagic
longline fishery in the EEZ around
American Samoa is first in time will be
ranked first in priority. If there is still
a tie between two or more applicants,
the Regional Administrator will select
the successful applicant by an impartial
lottery.
NMFS will only consider complete
applications, which must include the
completed and signed application form,
copy of current United States Coast
Guard Certificate of Documentation or
state or territory vessel registration,
evidence of documented participation
in the fishery if needed for
prioritization, and non-refundable
payment of the application processing
fee. Incomplete applications may be
abandoned 30 days after receipt if
deficiencies are not addressed.
Documented participation means
participation proved by, but not
necessarily limited to, a properly
submitted NMFS or American Samoa
logbook, an American Samoa creel
survey record, a delivery or payment
record from an American Samoa-based
cannery, retailer or wholesaler, an
American Samoa tax record, an
individual wage record, ownership title,
vessel registration, or other official
documents showing:
(i) Ownership of a vessel that was
used to fish in the EEZ around
American Samoa; or
(ii) Evidence of work on a fishing trip
during which longline gear was used to
harvest western Pacific pelagic
management unit species in the EEZ
around American Samoa. If the
applicant does not possess the necessary
documentation of evidence of work on
a fishing trip based on records available
only from NMFS or the Government of
American Samoa (e.g., creel survey
record or logbook), the applicant may
issue a request to PIRO to obtain such
records from the appropriate agencies, if
available. The applicant should provide
sufficient information on the fishing trip
to allow PIRO to retrieve the records.
If an applicant requests NMFS, in
writing, to use NMFS longline logbook
data as evidence of documented
participation, the applicant must specify
the qualifying vessel, official number,
and month and year of the logbook
records. NMFS will not conduct an
unlimited search for records.
NMFS must receive applications by
February 5, 2024 to be considered for a
permit (see ADDRESSES). NMFS will not
