PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT

Authority: The collection of this information is authorized under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, 16 U.S.C 1801 et seq.

Purpose: In order to manage U.S. fisheries, the NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service uses economic data reports (EDRs) under the Amendment 80 Program to collect baseline information to inform the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (NPFMC) when making conservation and management decisions. The primary purpose for requesting costs and revenues from each participant is to develop baseline information on harvesters, processors, and communities. NOAA and the NPFMC will use this information in aggregate form.

Routine Uses: The Department will use this information to identify fishery participants and assess management impacts on harvesters, processors, and the surrounding communities. Disclosure of this information is permitted under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. Section 552a), to be shared within NMFS offices, in order to coordinate monitoring and management of sustainability of fisheries and protected resources, as well as with the applicable State or Regional Marine Fisheries Commissions and International Organizations.

Disclosure: Furnishing this information is required to retain federal fishing permits or federal processing permits; failure to provide complete and accurate information will result in NMFS revoking these permits.

Introduction

This report collects economic data on the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area (BSAI) Amendment 80 and Gulf of Alaska (GOA) Trawl Groundfish fisheries.

Each person who held an Amendment 80 Quota Share (QS) permit OR

was an owner or leaseholder of an Amendment 80 vessel must submit a Trawl Catcher/Processor EDR for that vessel and/or QS permit.

A completed EDR must be submitted for each calendar year on or before June 1 of the following year. An EDR must be timely and all information fields must be accurately completed according to instructions in this form.

All required reports must be submitted to the NMFS Data Collection Agent, Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission electronically or by mail at the address provided below.

EDR Validation

The EDR is intended to collect the most accurate information available without imposing undue burden on submitters. To make sure that each company is consistently and accurately completing the EDR, all reported values will be reviewed by PSMFC or NMFS authorized personnel for the purpose of validating the data reported in this form. This step will ensure that the data can be relied upon to produce accurate and reliable information for the Alaska groundfish trawl fisheries.

If potential reporting errors are detected, you will be contacted by PSMFC and asked to verify one or more specific data elements of the report with your accounting records, and to provide corrected data values where appropriate. To make this process as efficient and non-intrusive as possible, we suggest that you:

1. Keep a copy of the certification and all completed EDR pages you submit. If submitting the EDR using the online EDR Portal, download and save a copy of the final report page for your own records.

2. Keep a file that has all of the supporting information used in the preparation of the EDR.

3. Where possible, information reported should correspond to the company’s highest level of financial information and operational recordkeeping. Where necessary, estimates should be derived from the best available financial and operational records, and the method of estimation (such as pro rata apportionment) documented in notes. For this purpose, the preferred sources of best available information are defined as:

a. Compiled (finalized, and if available, audited) financial statements and tax returns;

b. Vessel (captain or plant manager) daily logbooks, Daily Cumulative Production Logbook reports, and vessel manager records;

c. Qualified judgement of the most knowledgeable manager or engineer, explained in writing.

Instructions for completing this EDR Form

• Provide all information requested in each section.

• Record only whole numbers. Round up dollar figures to the next whole dollar.

• Record a zero (0) or not applicable (N/A) where appropriate, and do not skip any

questions or leave any data entry cells blank.
