The Individual Fishing Quotas (IFQ)
Program provides management measures for the commercial fisheries
for king and tanner crabs and commercial fisheries that use fixed
gear to harvest sablefish and Pacific halibut. The IFQ Program
limits access to the halibut, sablefish, and crab fisheries to
those persons holding quota share in specific management areas.
This action adds the option for IFQ Program participants to obtain
an emergency medical transfer under certain circumstances. In
addition, the name of the collection is changed from Individual
Fishing Quotas for Pacific Halibut and Sablefish in the Alaska
Fisheries to Alaska Individual Fishing Quotas for Pacific
Halibut, Sablefish and Crab.
PL:
Pub.L. 94 - 265 303 Name of Law: Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act
The emergency medical transfer
and associated appeal are results of a program change based on the
proposed rule 0648-AS84, which increases responses by 221, hours by
462 and miscellaneous costs by 1163. However, although current
miscellaneous costs are listed at OMB as $44,000, they should been
rounded down, not rounded up, on the last action (merger of
0648-0517 into 0658-0272); the figure on the 83-C submitted was
incorrect. Therefore, the current exact miscellaneous costs of
$43,337 do not match the current costs as documented by OMB. The
exact requested costs are $44,500, based on the correct current
costs.
