Abstract: The current information collection request seeks to reinstate survey data collection to reassess population-wide perceptions of the risk of falling overboard, safety attitudes, beliefs about PFDs, use of PFDs, and experiences with falls overboard as well as potential exposure to and influence of NIOSH risk communication interventions among fishermen working Alaskan fisheries. Continued monitoring of shifts or persistence in fishermen's perceptions and beliefs will not only provide key information to evaluate the effectiveness of ongoing communication efforts, but also provide a measure of progress toward the goal of increased PFD use among commercial fishermen.

Short Statement: A reinstatement with changes is being requested in order to narrow the populations to Bristol Bay salmon gillnet fishermen and Bering Sea/Aleutian Island crab fishermen. These populations were selected based upon the high rate of work-related drowning fatalities and self-reported low rate of PFD use. In addition, the data collection system has been slightly modified to eliminate those questions deemed inconsequential in previous analyses and add questions to account for potential exposure to and influence of ongoing risk communication efforts.
