addition of Letters of Authorization
(LOA) and Exempted Educational
Activity Authorizations (EEAA).
Currently, LOAs and EEAAs are part of
ICR Scientific Research, Exempted
Fishing, and Exempted Educational
Activity Submissions (0648–0309).
Originally this information was
collected under information collection
0648–0309 which included all the
Exempted Fishing Permit’s (EFPs),
EEAAs, and LOAs for all NOAA regions.
Beginning in November 2021, these
collections will be maintained by each
regional office. Therefore, this notice
proposes to combine the relevant
collection information from 0648–0309
with the West Coast Region’s (WCR)
information collection 0648–0204.
The WCR Permits Office administers
permits required for persons
participating in Federally-managed
fisheries off the West Coast under the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management act, 16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq. Section 303(b)(1) of
the Magnuson-Stevens Act specifically
authorizes the establishment of permit
requirements. Almost all international,
federal, state, and local fishery
management authorities use permits as
part of their management systems.
The Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA)
established regional fishery
management councils, including the
Pacific Fishery Management Council
(Pacific Council), to develop fishery
management plans (FMP) for fisheries in
the U.S. exclusive economic zone (EEZ).
These plans, if approved by the
Secretary of Commerce, are
implemented by Federal regulations,
which are enforced by the National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and
the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), in
cooperation with State agencies to the
extent possible. FMPs are intended to
regulate fishing for stocks to prevent
overfishing and achieve the optimum
yield from the fisheries for the benefit
of the U.S. The Pacific Council has
prepared FMPs for the coastal pelagic
species (CPS) fishery and Pacific Highly
Migratory Species (HMS) off the U.S.
West Coast. Each of these FMPs created
permit programs which are
administered by the WCR, NMFS.
There are two types of regulatory
permits: Open access fishery permits
and limited entry permits for selected
fisheries. Open access permits are used
in all fisheries where there are no
specific limitations or eligibility criteria
for entry to the fishery. Limited entry
permits are used to prevent
overcapitalization or address other
management goals in the fishery and are
issued to applicants for fishing activities
that would otherwise be prohibited

under a fisheries management plan.
Applicants for both open access and
limited entry permits are required to
submit applications to obtain these
permits but are not required to submit
reports on their fishing activities under
these permits.
Applicants for an EFP must submit
written information that allows NOAA
Fisheries and the Pacific Council to
evaluate the proposed exempted fishing
project activities and weigh the benefits
and costs of the proposed activities. The
Pacific Council makes a
recommendation on each EFP
application and for successful
applicants, NOAA Fisheries issues the
EFP which contains terms and
conditions for the project including
various reporting requirements. The
information included in an application
is specified at 50 CFR 600.745(b)(2) and
the Pacific Council Operating Procedure
#19. Permit holders are required to file
preseason harvest plans, interim and/or
final summary reports on the results of
the project, and in some cases
individual vessels and other permit
holders are required to provide data
reports (i.e., logbooks and/or catch
reports). The results of EFPs are
commonly used to explore ways to
reduce effort on depressed stocks,
encourage innovation and efficiency in
the fishery, and provide access to
constrained stocks by directly
measuring the bycatch associated with
current and proposed management
measures. LOAs and EEAAs were
historically collected under OMB
control number 0648–0309. To reduce
burden estimates, NMFS Headquarters
proposes to move LOAs and EEAAs to
their respective region’s permit familyof-forms collections. NMFS may grant
exemptions from fishery regulations for
educational or other activities (e.g.,
using nonregulation gear). An EEAA is
a permit issued by the Regional Office
to accredited educational institutions
that authorize, for educational purposes,
the target or incidental harvest of
species managed under a fisheries
management plan or fishery regulations
that would otherwise be prohibited.
EEAAs are generally of limited scope
and duration and authorize the take of
the amount of fish necessary to
demonstrate the lesson. Researchers are
requested to submit reports of their
scientific research activity after its
completion. LOAs are required under
Section 101(a)(5)(A) of the Marine
Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) of
1972 for the incidental take of marine
mammals during fisheries surveys and
related research activities conducted by
the Northwest Fisheries Science Center

(NWFSC), NMFS. Management of
certain marine mammals falls under the
jurisdiction of the NMFS under the
MMPA and Endangered Species Act
(ESA) and mechanisms exist under both
the MMPA and ESA to assess the effect
of incidental takings and to authorize
appropriate levels of take.
