identification, number, and size are
collected for any available landed catch.
Data collected from the APAIS are used
to estimate the catch per angler of
recreational saltwater fishers. These
APAIS estimates are combined with
estimates derived from independent but
complementary surveys of fishing effort,
the Fishing Effort Survey and the ForHire Survey, to estimate total, state-level
fishing catch, by species, and
participation. These estimates are used
in the development, implementation,
and monitoring of fishery management
programs by the NMFS, regional fishery
management councils, interstate marine
fisheries commissions, and state fishery
agencies.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Frequency: One-time, in-person
interview.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication
of this notice. We invite the general
public and other Federal agencies to
comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on March 21,

This notice allows for an additional 30

Title: Survey to Collect Economic
Data from Recreational Anglers Along
the Atlantic Coast.
OMB Control Number: 0648–0783.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular [revision of
currently approved information
collections].
Number of Respondents: 442.
Average Hours per Response: Eligible
Anglers, 14 minutes; Ineligible Anglers,
4 minutes.
Total Annual Burden Hours: 58.
Needs and Uses: This request is for
revision and extension of a currently
approved information collection and is
sponsored by NOAA’s Northeast
Fisheries Science Center (NEFSC). The
original data collection effort in 2019
under OMB Control Number 0648–0783
was to assess how changes in saltwater
recreational fishing regulations affect
angler effort, angler welfare, fishing
mortality, and future stock levels. That
data collection effort focused on anglers
who fished for Atlantic cod and
haddock off the Atlantic coast from
Maine to Massachusetts (North Atlantic
Recreational Fishing Survey I). In 2020,
the collection was revised to remove the
cod and haddock survey and add a
survey focused on anglers who fish for
summer flounder and black sea bass
along the Atlantic coast from
Massachusetts to North Carolina (North
Atlantic Recreational Fishing Survey II).
This current revision will re-add the
original cod and haddock survey to this
control number (North Atlantic
Recreational Fishing Survey III).
The objective of this survey will be to
update our understanding of how
anglers who fish for Atlantic cod and
haddock, respond to changes in
management options and fishing
regulations (e.g., bag limits, size limits,
dates of open seasons, etc.) along the
Atlantic coast from Maine to
Massachusetts. The survey data will
provide the information fisheries
managers need to conduct updated and
improved analysis of the socio-

economic effects to recreational anglers
and to coastal communities of proposed
changes in fishing regulations. The
recreational fishing community and
regional fisheries management councils
have requested more species-specific
socio-economic studies of recreational
fishing that can be used in the analysis
of fisheries policies. This survey will
address that stated need for more
species-specific studies.
The survey population consists of
those anglers who fish in saltwater
along the North Atlantic coast from
Maine to Massachusetts and who
possess a license to fish. A sample of
anglers will be drawn from state fishing
license frames. The survey will be
conducted using both mail and email to
contact anglers and invite them to take
the survey online. Anglers not
responding to the online survey may
receive a paper survey in the mail.
Affected Public: Individuals.
Frequency: The NARFS III will be a
cross-sectional survey asking anglers to
respond once to a single questionnaire.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
