Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 223 / Wednesday, November 18, 2020 / Notices

351.205(e), the petitioner must submit a
request for postponement 25 days or
more before the scheduled date of the
preliminary determination and must
state the reasons for the request.
Commerce will grant the request unless
it finds compelling reasons to deny the
request.
On November 5, 2020, the petitioner 2
submitted a timely request that
Commerce postpone the preliminary
determination in this LTFV
investigation.3 The petitioner stated that
it requests postponement to provide
adequate time for Commerce to analyze
complex issues, to accommodate
extensions of time provided to the
respondent to complete the
questionnaire and supplemental
questionnaires, and to provide
Commerce additional time to conduct a
thorough analysis, including by issuing
additional supplemental
questionnaires.4
For the reasons stated above and
because there are no compelling reasons
to deny the request, Commerce, in
accordance with section 733(c)(1)(A) of
the Act, is postponing the deadline for
the preliminary determination by 50
days (i.e., 190 days after the date on
which this investigation was initiated).
As a result, Commerce will issue its
preliminary determination no later than
January 26, 2021. In accordance with
section 735(a)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR
351.210(b)(1), the deadline for the final
determination in this investigation will
continue to be 75 days after the date of
the preliminary determination, unless
postponed at a later date.
This notice is issued and published
pursuant to section 733(c)(2) of the Act
and 19 CFR 351.205(f)(1).
Dated: November 12, 2020.
Jeffrey I. Kessler,
Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and
Compliance.

Agency: National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Title: Groundfish Trawl Catcher
Processor Economic Data Report (EDR).
OMB Control Number: 0648–0564.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(extension of a current information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 30.
Average Hours per Response: Annual
Trawl Catcher/Processor Economic Data
Report, 22 hours.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 660
hours.
Needs and Uses: The National Marine
Fisheries Services (NMFS), Alaska
Regional Office, is requesting extension
of the currently approved information
collection for the Annual Trawl
Catcher/Processor Economic Data
Report (the EDR).
The EDR collects economic data on
the information for the Gulf of Alaska
Trawl Groundfish Economic Data
Report Program (GOA Trawl EDR
Program) and for Amendment 80 to the
Fishery Management Plan for
Groundfish of the Bering Sea and
Aleutian Islands Management Area.
The GOA Trawl EDR Program
evaluates the economic effects of
current and potential future fishery
management measures for the GOA
trawl fisheries. This program provides
NMFS and the North Pacific Fishery

Management Council (Council) with
baseline economic information on
affected harvesters, crew, processors,
and communities in the GOA.
Amendment 80 primarily allocates
several Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands
non-pollock trawl groundfish fisheries
among fishing sectors, and facilitates the
formation of harvesting cooperatives
among vessels in the non-American
Fisheries Act (non-AFA) Trawl Catcher/
Processor Cooperative Program. This
program established a limited access
privilege program for the non-AFA trawl
catcher/processor sector.
Data collected through the EDR
includes labor information, revenues
received, capital and operational
expenses, and other operational or
financial data. NMFS and the Council
use this to assess the economic effects
of Amendment 80 on vessels or entities
regulated by the non-AFA Trawl
Catcher/Processor Cooperative Program,
and impacts of major changes in the
groundfish management regime,
including allocation of prohibited
species catch species and target species
to harvesting cooperatives.
The EDR is submitted annually by
each person who held an Amendment
80 Quota Share permit or was an owner
or leaseholder of an Amendment 80
vessel, or was an owner or leaseholder
of a vessel named on a License
Limitation Program groundfish license
with catcher/processor vessel and trawl
gear designations and endorsed for the
GOA during a calendar year. The EDR
requirements are located at 50 CFR
679.94.

landing reports; 15 minutes for HMS
international trade biweekly electronic
reports; 15 minutes for weekly
electronic HMS dealer landing reports
(e-dealer); 5 minutes for negative weekly
electronic HMS dealer landing reports
(e-dealer); 15 minutes for voluntary
fishing vessel and catch forms; 2
minutes for provision of HMS dealer
email address.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 20,260.
Needs and Uses: This collection
serves as a family of forms for Atlantic
highly migratory species (HMS) dealer
reporting, including purchases of HMS
from domestic fishermen, and the
import, export, and/or re-export of
HMS, including federally managed
tunas, sharks, and swordfish.
Transactions covered under this
collection include purchases of Atlantic
HMS from domestic fishermen; and the
import/export of all bluefin tuna, frozen
bigeye tuna, southern bluefin tuna or
swordfish under the HMS International
Trade Program, regardless of geographic
area of origin. This information is used
to monitor the harvest of domestic
fisheries, and/or track international
trade of internationally managed
species. We are currently revising this
information collection to implement
mandatory electronic, web-based
reporting to replace the downloadable
hard copy forms currently used for
biweekly bluefin dealer reporting and
international trade reporting of bluefin
tuna, swordfish, and frozen bigeye tuna.
No other changes in the reporting
program are being implemented at this
time, and no significant changes in the
number of responses or burden
estimates are anticipated aside from
removal of postage costs for returning
the completed forms by mail.
The domestic dealer reporting
covered by this collection includes
weekly electronic landing reports and
negative reports (i.e., reports of no
activity) of Atlantic swordfish, sharks,
bigeye tuna, albacore, yellowfin, and
skipjack tunas (collectively referred to
as BAYS tunas), and electronic biweekly
and daily landing reports for bluefin
tuna, including tagging of individual
fish. Because of the individual bluefin
quota (IBQ) management system (RIN
0648–BC09), electronic entry of IBQrelated landing data is required for
Atlantic bluefin tuna purchased from
Longline and Purse seine category
vessels.
International trade tracking programs
are required by both the International
Commission for the Conservation of
Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT) and the InterAmerican Tropical Tuna Commission
(IATTC) to account for all international
trade of covered species. The United

States is a member of ICCAT and IATTC
and required by ATCA and the Tunas
Convention Act (16 U.S.C. 951 et. seq.,
consecutively) to promulgate
regulations as necessary and appropriate
to implement ICCAT and IATTC
recommendations. These programs
require that a statistical document or
catch document accompany each export
from and import to a member nation,
and that a re-export certificate
accompany each re-export. The
international trade reporting
requirements covered by this collection
include implementation of catch
document, statistical document, and reexport certificate trade tracking
programs for bluefin tuna, frozen bigeye
tuna, and swordfish. An electronic catch
document program for bluefin tuna
(EBCD) was recommended by ICCAT
and implemented by the United States
in 2016 (0648–BF17). United States
regulations implementing ICCAT
statistical document and catch
document programs require statistical
documents and catch documents for
international transactions of the covered
species from all ocean areas, so Pacific
imports and exports must also be
accompanied by statistical documents
and catch documents. Since there are
statistical document programs in place
under other international conventions
(e.g., the Indian Ocean Tuna
Commission), a statistical document or
catch document from another program
may be used to satisfy the statistical
document requirement for imports into
the United States.
Dealers who internationally trade
Southern bluefin tuna are required to
participate in a trade tracking program
to ensure that imported Atlantic and
Pacific bluefin tuna will not be
intentionally mislabeled as ‘‘southern
bluefin’’ to circumvent reporting
requirements. This action is authorized
under ATCA, which provides for the
promulgation of regulations as may be
necessary and appropriate to carry out
ICCAT recommendations.
In addition to statistical document,
catch document, and re-export
certificate requirements, this collection
includes biweekly reports to
complement trade tracking statistical
documents by summarizing statistical
document data and collecting additional
economic information.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit organizations.
Frequency: Daily for bluefin tuna
landings reports and tagging, weekly for
HMS dealer reports, biweekly for
bluefin tuna dealer and international
trade reports, and annually for nongovernmental catch document/statistical
document/re-export certificate
