Abstract: Fishermen in Federally-managed fisheries in the western Pacific region are required to provide certain information about their fishing activities. These data are needed to determine the condition of the stocks and whether the current management measures are having the intended effects, to evaluate the benefits and costs of changes in management measures, and to monitor and respond to accidental takes of endangered and threatened species, including seabirds, sea turtles, and marine mammals. This request is for revision and extension of the previously approved information collection under OMB Control No. 0648-0214. The following changes are being made. Pelagic transshipment reports will be removed from this collection as they have been superseded by Transshipment Requirements under the Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (OMB Control No. 0648-0649). Pelagic squid jig (OMB Control No.0648-0589) and deepwater shrimp (OMB Control No.0648-0586) logbooks will be removed from their previously approved collections and incorporated into this collection.

Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimates of respondents, responses, and burden hours were updated and recalculated based on the previous calendar year's report submissions and changes to the collection. Program Changes: Transshipment reports were removed because they are now in a separatecollection (OMB Control No.0648-0649). This removed 50 responses and 4 hours. Reporting for Pelagic Squid Jig and Deepwater Shrimp were added to this collection and will be removed from their previous collections (OMB Control No.0648-0589 and OMB Control No.0648-0586): 30 responses and 8 hours were added for Pelagic Squid Jig logbooks; there was no net addition of burden for deepwater shrimp logbooks and sales reports, as the total crustacean logbooks and sales reports reflects the current estimate including for deepwater shrimp. Net changes: decrease of 20 responses and increase of 4 hours. The decrease is responses results in a decrease of less than $3. Adjustments: Pre-trip notifications were inadvertently omitted from the previous extension and were added back in (5,030 responses and 419 hours). Burden estimates were adjusted: respondents increased by 132 to 512, and responses were reduced by 15,150 because the previous estimate was incorrect for longline logbooks. Estimated burden hours decreased by a net 11,360 due to additions and corrections of responses and logbook preparation times.
