Paperwork Reduction Act Information

Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 30 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,
1845 Wasp Blvd., Bldg. 176, Honolulu, HI 96818.
This information is being collected to provide the information needed by NMFS to regulate and monitor the coral reef
fisheries and resources managed under Fishery Ecosystem Plans (FEP) for American Samoa, Mariana Archipelago, Hawaiian
Archipelago, and Pacific Remote Island Areas Federally permitted coral reef fisheries and to evaluate the effectiveness of
management by assessing the status of stocks and the status of the fisheries. The information provides a basis for
determining whether changes in management are needed 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 to obtain the benefit of the FEPs (50 CFR Part 665). Data provided
concerning the vessel and/or business of the respondents are handled as confidential under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act (Sec.402(b)). Notwithstanding any other provisions 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.
