This action requests approval of a
temporary new information collection due to an associated rule
(RIN: 0648-BB86). Once approved, it will be merged with OMB Control
No. 0648-0194. Under the Antarctic Marine Living Resources
Convention Act 16 U.S.C. 2431 et seq. (the Act), the Secretary of
Commerce is responsible for promulgate regulations that are
necessary and appropriate to implement the Act. Regulations are
codified in 50 CFR Part 300, Subparts A and G. The National Marine
Fisheries Service (NMFS) intends to revise and update the
regulations that implement conservation measures adopted by the
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living
Resources (CCAMLR or Commission). These revisions would be in
addition to those proposed in 80 FR 81251, December 29, 2015, that
would revise procedures and requirements for filing import, export,
and re-export documentation for certain fishery products, to
integrate the collection of trade documentation within the
government-wide International Trade Data System (ITDS) and require
electronic information collection. Approval of the information
collection requirements associated with the ITDS will be requested
separately.
