Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 11 / Thursday, January 16, 2020 / Notices
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(revision and extension of a currently
approved collection).
Number of Respondents: 6,188.
Average Hours per Response: Shrimp
Interviews, Vessel Trip interviews,
USVI Trip interviews, South Carolina
Coastal Fisheries Dealer Reporting, and
Mackerel Gillnet Reporting, 10 minutes;
Wreckfish Dealer Reporting, 13 minutes;
Coastal Fisheries electronic dealer
reporting, 1 minute.
Burden Hours: 4,805.
Needs and Uses: Fishery quotas are
established for many species in the
fishery management plans developed by
the Gulf of Mexico Reef Fish Fishery
Management Council, the South
Atlantic Fishery Management Council,
and The Caribbean Fishery Management
Council. The Southeast Fisheries
Science Center has been delegated the
responsibility to monitor these quotas.
To do so in a timely manner, seafood
dealers that handle these species are
required to report the purchases
(landings) of these species. The
frequency of these reporting
requirements varies depending on the
magnitude of the quota (e.g., lower
quota usually require more frequent
reporting) and the intensity of fishing
effort. The most common reporting
frequency is weekly. Daily reporting is
only used for one fishery.
In addition, information collection
included in this family of forms
includes interview with fishermen to
gather information on the fishing effort,
location, and type of gear used on
individual trips. This data collection is
conducted for a subsample of the fishing
trips and vessel/trips in selected
commercial fisheries in the Southeast
region and commercial fisheries of the
US Caribbean. Fishing trips and
individuals are selected at random to
provide a viable statistical sample.
These data are used for scientific
analyses that support critical
conservation and management decisions
made by national and international
fishery management organizations.
Anticipated changes in burden hours
and respondents are driven by the
number of fishing trips made by the
fisherman each year. Seasonal
differences are always noticed because
many factors such as weather, fuel cost,
dock side fish prices, fish migration
patterns, the number of fisherman with
active permits, and seasonal closures
can influence how many fishing trip
take place annually.
