Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration,
Commerce.
Title: Western Pacific Community
Development Program Process.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0612.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission,
extension of a current information
collection.
Number of Respondents: 5.
Average Hours per Response: 6.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 30.
Needs and Uses: This request is for an
extension of a currently approved
information collection. Federal
regulations at 50 CFR 665 authorize the
Regional Administrator of the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS),
Pacific Island Region to provide eligible
western Pacific communities with
access to fisheries that they have
traditionally depended upon, but may
not have the capabilities to support
continued and substantial participation,
possibly due to economic, regulatory, or
other barriers. To be eligible to
participate in the western Pacific
community development program, a
community must meet the criteria set
forth in 50 CFR 665.20, and submit a
community development plan that
describes the purposes and goals of the
plan, the justification for proposed
fishing activities, and the degree of
involvement by the indigenous
community members, including contact
information.
This collection of information
provides NMFS and the Western Pacific
Fishery Management Council with data
to determine whether a community that
submits a community development plan
meets the regulatory requirements for
participation in the program, and
whether the activities proposed under
the plan are consistent with the intent
of the program, the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act, and other applicable laws. The
information is also important for
evaluating potential impacts of the
proposed community development plan
activities on fish stocks, endangered
species, marine mammals, and other
components of the affected environment
for the purposes of compliance with the
National Environmental Policy Act, the
Endangered Species Act and other
applicable laws.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; Business or other for-profit
organizations; Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government.
Frequency: As required.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
Obtain or Retain Benefits.
Legal Authority: 50 CFR 665.20.
