Abstract: This is a request for revision of a current information collection. Fishing vessels participating in select fisheries within the Greater Atlantic Region are currently able to submit certain required reports via an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. As of Spring 2021, the IVR system will no longer be available and the reports will need to be submitted using our web based system, FishOnline.

Short Statement: ICs broken out for administrative reasons – requirements have not changed, but the existing ICs were broken out to add transparency to collection burden as the previous renewal combined some requirements. Slight response and burden decrease due to updated average responses over past 3 years of submissions. The revision is just to reflect that as of Spring 2021, the IVR system will no longer be available and the reports will need to be submitted using the web based system, FishOnline.
