Western Pacific Daily Lobster Catch Report
Paperwork Reduction Act Information:
Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated at 5 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the
collection of information. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information,
including suggestions for reducing this burden, to Regional Administrator, NMFS Pacific Islands Region, 1601 Kapiolani
Blvd., Suite 1110, Honolulu, HI 96814-4700.
This information is being collected to ensure accurate and timely records about the fishing activity of persons licensed to participate in
fisheries under Federal regulations in the western Pacific region. This will enable the National Marine Fisheries Service and the
Western Pacific Fishery Management Council to (a) determine how those persons would be affected by changes in management; (b)
ensure that they are informed about prospective changes in fishery regulations and the analysis of estimated impacts; and (c)
determine whether the objectives of the fishery program are being achieved by monitoring the fishery and evaluating the impacts on
stocks, the fishery participants, and related businesses. Responses to the collection are required to obtain the benefit of a license for
the fishery involved (ref. 50 CFR 665.13). Data provided concerning the activities and business of the respondents are handled as
confidential under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Sec. 402(b)). Notwithstanding any other
provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a
collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that collection of information displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number.
