SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
The National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) operates a voluntary fee-forservice seafood inspection program
(Program) under the authorities of the
Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946, as
amended, the Fish and Wildlife Act of
1956, and the Reorganization Plan No.
4 of 1970. The regulations for the
Program are contained in 50 CFR part
260. The program offers inspection

grading and certification services,
including the use of official quality
grade marks which indicate that specific
products have been federally inspected.
The NMFS inspection program is the
only federal entity which establishes
quality grade standards for seafood
marketed in the United States (U.S.).
Qualified participants are permitted to
use the program’s official quality grade
marks on their products to facilitate
trade of fishery products.
In July 1992, NMFS announced new
inspection services, which were fully
based on guidelines recommended by
the National Academy of Sciences,
known as Hazard Analysis Critical
Control Point (HACCP). The information
collection requirements fall under
§ 260.15 of the regulations. These
guidelines required that a facility’s
quality control system have a written
plan of the operation, identification of
control points with acceptance criteria
and a corrective action plan, as well as
identified personnel responsible for
oversight of the system.
Those wishing to participate in the
program must request the services and
submit specific compliance information.
Participants in the program include all
segments of the seafood industry, from
harvesters to retailers. Applicants
provide information regarding the type
of products to be inspected, the
quantity, the location of the product,
and the date when the inspection is
needed. Participants interested in using
official grade marks are required to
submit product labels and specifications
for review and approval to ensure
compliance with mandatory labeling
regulations established by the U.S. Food
and Drug Administration (FDA), as well
as proper use of the Program’s marks.
II. Method of Collection
Respondents have a choice of either
electronic or paper forms. Methods of
submittal include email of electronic
forms, and mail and facsimile
transmission of paper forms.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
This request is for extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Vessel operators or owners in
Federally-managed fisheries in the
Pacific Islands Region (PIR) are required
to provide certain information about
their fishing activities, catch, and
interactions with protected species by
submitting reports to National Marine
Fisheries Service, per 50 CFR part
665.14. These data are needed to
determine the condition of fish stocks
and whether current management

measures are having the intended
effects, to evaluate the benefits and costs
of changes in management measures,
and to monitor and respond to
accidental takes of endangered and
threatened species, including seabirds,
sea turtles, and marine mammals.
The reports are submitted using paper
logbooks or electronic logbooks
(computer tablets or other devices) to
the National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS) Fisheries Pacific Islands
Fisheries Science Center. The Hawaii
and American Samoa pelagic longline
fisheries will submit reports using
electronic logbooks, although paper
logbooks will be used if there are
equipment or transmission failures.
Electronic logbooks collect the same
information as paper logbooks. All other
PIR fisheries use paper logbooks only.
Longline vessel operators are also
required to submit pre-trip notifications,
including information on trip type,
departure time, and transit through a
protected species zone per 50 CFR
665.803. Other fisheries are required to
submit notifications of trip return,
unloading, or sales reports per
regulations in multiple Subparts of 50
CFR 665.
II. Method of Collection
Respondents will report their catch
using paper logbooks or electronic
logbooks. Methods of submittal include
submission by mail or facsimile for
paper logbooks, and via the vessel
monitoring system or online for
electronic logbook data. Notifications
may be made by phone or email.
