Navigation services includes the data,
products, and services provided by the
NOAA programs and activities which

surveying, nautical charting, tide and
water level observations, current
observations, and marine modeling.
This suite of geospatial data, products

positioning information infrastructure to
build America for the future.
The Panel will hear from Federal
agencies and non-Federal associations
about their mission or business uses for
NOAA’s navigation services; what value
these services bring; and what
improvements could be made to
NOAA’s navigation services. Other
business will include reports by the
HSRP working groups on their progress
or results in response to NOAA’s tasking
on coastal intelligence and resilience,
and emerging Arctic priorities.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
This request is for an extension of a
currently approved collection associated
with the Atlantic surfclam and ocean
quahog fisheries. National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) Greater
Atlantic Region manages these fisheries
in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)
of the Northeastern United States
through the Atlantic Surfclam and
Ocean Quahog Fishery Management
Plan (FMP). The Mid-Atlantic Fishery
Management Council prepared the FMP
pursuant to the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act). The
regulations implementing the FMP are
specified at 50 CFR part 648 subpart E.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 153 / Monday, August 10, 2015 / Notices
The recordkeeping and reporting
requirements at §§ 648.74, 648.75, and
648.76 form the basis for this collection
of information. We request information
from surfclam and ocean quahog
individual transferable quota (ITQ)
permit holders to issue ITQ permits and
to process and track requests from
permit holders to transfer quota share or
cage tags. We also request information
from surfclam and ocean quahog ITQ
permit holders to track and properly
account for surfclam and ocean quahog
harvest shucked at sea. Because there is
not a standard conversion factor for
estimating unshucked product from
shucked product, NMFS requires
vessels that shuck product at sea to
carry on board the vessel a NMFSapproved observer to certify the amount
of these clams harvested. This
information, upon receipt, results in an
efficient and accurate database for
management and monitoring of fisheries
of the Northeastern U.S. EEZ.
Georges Bank has been closed to the
harvest of surfclams and ocean quahogs
since 1990 due to red tide blooms that
cause paralytic shellfish poisoning
(PSP). In 2013, a portion of Georges
Bank was reopened with certain
restrictions. We request information
from surfclam and ocean quahog ITQ
permit holders who fish in the reopened
portion of the Georges Bank Closed Area
to ensure compliance with the Protocol
for Onboard Screening and Dockside
Testing in Molluscan Shellfish. The U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, the
commercial fishing industry, and NMFS
developed the PSP protocol to test and
verify that clams harvested from
Georges Bank continue to be safe for
human consumption. The National
Shellfish Sanitation Program adopted
the PSP protocol at the October 2011
Interstate Shellfish Sanitation
Conference.

II. Method of Collection
Forms are online at
www.nmfs.noaa.gov/gpea_forms/
forms.htm as ‘‘fillable’’ pdf documents,
which can then be downloaded, printed,
and faxed or mailed to NMFS. ITQ
transfer forms may also be submitted
electronically. Information for the PSP
protocol is submitted through paper
forms, as well as through electronic
methods, including email, telephone,
and shipboard electronic equipment
such as VHF radio, email, or a vessel
monitoring system.

Type of Review: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
189.
Estimated Time per Response: ITQ
permit application form, review of a
pre-filled ITQ ownership form for
renewing entities, ITQ transfer form, 5
minutes each; 1 hour to complete the
ITQ ownership form for new applicants;
and 30 minutes for the application to
shuck surfclams and ocean quahogs at
sea. The requirements under the PSP
protocol are based on the number of
vessels that land surfclams or ocean
quahogs and the number of trips taken
into the area, with a total estimated
annual burden of 2,400 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 2,538.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $111,764 in recordkeeping/
reporting costs.
IV. Request for Comments
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for Office of
Management and Budget approval of
this information collection; they also
will become a matter of public record.
