date of birth, Tax Identification Number, and vessel descriptive information. Permit holder information may be used as sampling frames for surveys.
Routine Uses: The Department will use this information to determine permit eligibility and to identify fishery participants. Disclosure of this
information is permitted within NMFS offices under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a) to coordinate monitoring and management of fisheries and
