ACTION: Notice of public meeting.
AGENCY:

The Access-Point Angler
Intercept Survey (APAIS), which
collects information on angler catch
from Maine to Louisiana, was
redesigned prior to implementation in
2013. A conversion factor is needed to
account for any consistent effects of the
redesign on catch rate estimates
produced by the APAIS. NMFS is
convening a peer review of a statistical
approach proposed for the conversion
by the Marine Recreational Information
Program (MRIP). Applying the
conversion factor to APAIS estimates
produced prior to 2013 will provide
revised historical catch statistics that are
comparable to those produced by the
new APAIS. The revised estimates will
be used in fisheries science and
management.
The peer review includes reviewers
appointed by the Center for
Independent Experts (CIE), as well as
reviewers recommended by the Atlantic
States Marine Fisheries Commission
(ASMFC), and the New England, MidAtlantic, South Atlantic, and Gulf of
Mexico Regional Fishery Management
Councils. This notice lists the time and
place of the Peer Review Workshop.

The Workshop will be held from
9 a.m. on March 20, 2018, until 12 p.m.
on March 22, 2018.
ADDRESSES: The Workshop will be held
at the Sheraton Hotel, 8777 Georgia
Avenue, Silver Spring, MD 20910;
Phone: 301/589–0800.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr.

Science and Technology; phone 301/
427–8189; FAX 301/427–4520; email:
[email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts, APAIS is
conducted at public marine fishing
access points (boat ramps, marinas,
piers, beaches, jetties, and bridges) to
collect representative data on individual
angler fishing trips. The catch data
collected include: Species
identification, total number of each
species caught, length and weight
measurements of individual fish, as well
as the numbers and disposition of fish
caught. Catch data are combined with
information from MRIP effort surveys to
produce an estimate of total recreational
catch. This estimate is then combined
with other sources of information to
assess the health of U.S. fish stocks, set
catch limits, and inform the regulatory
process.
The Peer Review Workshop will
provide an assessment of the statistical
approach developed by MRIP for this
purpose. The product of the Workshop
will be a summary report documenting
panel opinions regarding the strengths
and weaknesses of the proposed
conversion approach. The panel of
reviewers will include individuals
selected by the Center for Independent
Experts (CIE) as well as individuals
selected by the Regional Fishery
Management Councils and ASMFC. The
panel will be chaired by an individual
also selected by the Councils and
ASMFC. The agenda is subject to
change, and the latest version will be
posted at http://www.countmyfish.
noaa.gov. The workshop will also be
accessible by webinar in listen-only
mode. Requests for webinar access
should be directed to NMFS (see FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT) three
days prior to the workshop.
DATES:

Special Accommodations
This workshop will be physically
accessible to people with disabilities.
Requests for auxiliary aids should be
directed to NMFS (see FOR FURTHER

assess the impact of its information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand the
Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is
soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. The Department of
Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be
considered public records.
Title of Collection: Experimental Sites
Initiative Reporting Tool 2017.
OMB Control Number: 1845–NEW.
Type of Review: A new information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments; Private
Sector.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 300.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 5,400.
Abstract: Federal Student Aid (FSA)
is requesting an additional 30 day
public comment period, for this
Experimental Sites Initiatives (ESI)
information clearance request, to ensure
that all affected parties will have an
opportunity to review and respond to
these proposed additional questions.
Based on public comments received
during the 30 day public comment
period, which closed January 18, 2018,
FSA is incorporating 40 new questions
across the Institutional Surveys for
seven of the experiments. The
additional questions can be viewed as
directed in the ADDRESSES section of this
notice. FSA has determined that
responding to the additional questions
will add, on average, one hour of
additional burden to affected parties.
The collection of this data and the
results of these experiments will help
the Department in its continuing efforts
to improve Title IV program
administration.
