Abstract: This request is for a revision to an existing information collection and extension. This revision addresses minor formatting issues, clarifies the form for consistent language across questions, and adds one additional question for consistency with a final rule to clarify guidance on Council members’ financial disclosures and voting recusals (50 CFR 600.235; as amended at 85 FR 56182, Sept. 11, 2020). The existing form has a current expiration date of March 31, 2023. Revisions are requested at this time to improve the form for 2023 annual updates. Proposed revisions are responsive to public comments and feedback received from the Councils, the primary users of the form for required reporting.
