PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT NOTICE: Atlantic Highly Migratory Species tournament information is required by NOAA Fisheries under authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act and the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act, as amended. Catch and effort information will be used in stock assessments, to monitor total catch of species under quota management, and in
reports to international commissions with respect to catch sharing agreements. It is NOAA policy to preserve the confidentiality of information submitted under this reporting requirement, except that
NMFS may release such information in aggregate or summary form, such that individual identifiers are not disclosed (NAO 216-100). Upon request, some individual responses, stripped of personal
identifiers, may be released to the public. 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. Public reporting burden for this
collection of information is estimated to average 22 minutes per respondent (registration and reporting of selected tournaments), 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 suggestions for reducing this
burden to the Highly Migratory Species Management Division, NOAA Fisheries, 1315 East-West Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910.
