Privacy Act Statement
Authority: The collection of this information is authorized under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, 16 U.S.C 1801
et seq.
Purpose: The Magnuson-Stevens Act requires that conservation and management measures must prevent over fishing while achieving, on a
continuing basis, the optimum yield from each fishery. Vessel logbooks are essential tools in the management of fishery resources. Section 303(a)(5)
of the Magnuson-Stevens Act specifically identifies the kinds of data to be collected for fishery management plans (FMPs).
Routine Uses: The Department will use this information for effective fishery management. Disclosure of this information is permitted under the
Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. Section 552a), to be shared within NMFS offices, in order to coordinate monitoring and management of sustainability
of fisheries and protected resources, as well as with the applicable State or Regional Marine Fisheries Commissions and International
Organizations.
Disclosure of this information is also subject to all of the published routine uses as identified in the COMMERCE/NOAA-6, Fishermen's Statistical
Data.
Disclosure: Submission is mandatory for those persons falling under the requirements of 50 CFR 665.14. If the information is not provided, permit
status may be affected.
Paperwork Reduction Act Information
Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated to average 20 minutes per response, including time for reviewing instructions,
searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspects of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing
this burden, to Pacific Islands Regional Administrator, NOAA Fisheries Service, 1845 Wasp Blvd., Building 176, Honolulu, Hawaii 96818.
This information is being collected to provide information needed by NMFS to regulate and monitor fishing activities in the monument area and to
evaluate the effectiveness of management by assessing the status of stocks and the status of fisheries. The information will provide a basis for
determining whether changes in management are needed to sustain the productivity of the stocks or to respond to interactions between fishing
vessels and protected species. The information is also used to provide a basis for evaluating the magnitude and distribution of impacts resulting from
changes to the regulations. Responses to the collection are required under 50 CFR 665.14. Proprietary data provided concerning the vessel and/or
business of the responders are handled as confidential under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Sec. 402(b)), and
NOAA Administrative Order 216-100. Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall any person be
subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, unless that
collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
Vessel Reporting Requirements
The operator of any fishing vessel operating under a Federal Marine National Monument Fishing permit must maintain onboard an accurate and
complete record of catch, effort, and other data on report forms provided by the Regional Administrator, and must record the information on the
logsheet forms within 24 hours of the completion of each fishing day. Each logsheet must be signed and dated by the fishing vessel operator. The
original logsheet must be submitted to the National Marine Fisheries Service within 30 days of the end of each fishing trip. Submit daily fishing
logsheet reports to: NOAA Inouye Regional Center, NMFS/PIFSC/Fishery Monitoring Branch, 1845 Wasp Blvd., Building 176, Honolulu,
HI 96818. For more information call (808) 725-5325.
