Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for clearance the
following proposal for collection of
information under the provisions of the
Paperwork Reduction Act.
Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Reporting of Sea Turtle
Incidental Take in Virginia Chesapeake
Bay Pound Net Operations.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0470.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular (extension of
a currently approved information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 35.
Average Hours per Response: 10
minutes.
Burden Hours: 165.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
extension of a current information
collection.
This action would continue the
reporting measure requiring all Virginia
Chesapeake Bay pound net fishermen to
report interactions with endangered and
threatened sea turtles, found both live
and dead, in their pound net operations.

Jkt 244001

When a live or dead sea turtle is
discovered during a pound net trip, the
Virginia pound net fisherman is
required to report the incidental take to
National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) and, if necessary, the
appropriate rehabilitation and stranding
network. This information will be used
to monitor the level of incidental take in
the state-managed Virginia pound net
fishery and ensure that the seasonal
pound net leader restrictions (50 CFR
223.206(d)(10)) are adequately
protecting listed sea turtles. Based on
the number of sea turtle takes
anticipated in the Virginia pound net
fishery and the available number of
Virginia pound net fishermen and
pound nets, the number of responses
anticipated on an annual basis is 988.
This is an increase from the previous
information collection (n=483) as we
used the maximum number of possible
licensed pound net sites per Virginia
fishery regulations (n=161) on which to
base our information collection
estimate, rather than the number of
documented sites from NMFS
monitoring efforts (n=80), as the latter is
outdated and may be an underestimate.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under
review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to OIRA_Submission@
omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.
Dated: August 28, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
This request is for extension of this
information collection.
NOAA Fisheries, Southeast Fisheries
Science Center, annually collects
socioeconomic data from commercial
fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and
South Atlantic shrimp fisheries who
hold one or more permits for harvesting
shrimp from federal waters (U.S.
Exclusive Economic Zone). Information
about revenues, variable and fixed costs,
capital investment and other
socioeconomic information is collected
from a random sample of permit
holders. These data are needed to
conduct socioeconomic analyses in
support of management of the shrimp
fishery and to satisfy legal requirements.
The data will be used to assess how
fishermen will be impacted by and
respond to federal regulation likely to be
considered by fishery managers.
II. Method of Collection

National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration

The information will be collected on
paper using a mail survey.
