Paperwork Reduction Act Information
Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 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, Pacific Islands Region, NMFS,
1601 Kapiolani Blvd., Suite 1110, Honolulu, HI 96814.
This information is being collected to provide information needed by NMFS to regulate and monitor bottomfish
management unit species under the Fishery Management Plan for Bottomfish in the Western Pacific Region (FMP) and to
evaluate the effectiveness of management by assessing the status of stocks and the status of the fisheries. The information
will provide a basis for determining whether changes in management are need to sustain the productivity of the stocks or to
respond to interactions between fishing vessels and protected species and to address economic problems in the fishery.
The information is also used to provide a basis for evaluating the magnitude and distribution of impacts resulting from
changes to the regulations. Responses to the collection are required under 50 CFR 665.14. Propriety data provided
concerning the vessel and/or business of the respondents are handled as confidential under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery

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.
