Abstract: Respondents will be commercial fishing industry individuals, partnerships, and corporations which entered into Capital Construction Fund (CCF) agreements with the Secretary of Commerce allowing deferral of Federal taxation on fishing vessel income deposited into the fund for use in the acquisition, construction or reconstruction of fishing vessels. The interim Capital Construction Fund Agreement and Certificate Family of Forms is required pursuant to 50 CFR part 259.30 and Public Law 99-514 (The Tax Reform Act, 1986). The deposit/withdrawal information collected from agreement holders is required pursuant to 50 CFR part 259.35 and Pub L. 99-514. The information collected from applicants for the Interim CCF Agreement is used to determine their eligibility to participate in the CCF Program. The information collected from agreement holders for the Certificate of Family of Forms is used to identify their program eligible vessels, their program projects and to certify the cost of a project at completion. The information collected on the deposit/withdrawal report is required to ensure that program users are complying with fund deposit/withdrawal regulatory requirements.
