SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The National Marine Fisheries Service
(NMFS), Alaska Regional Office, is
requesting extension of a currently
approved information collection that
contains applications for permits and
transfers necessary for NMFS to manage
the Amendment 80 Program (A80
Program).
Under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act 16
U.S.C. 1801 et seq., the Secretary of
Commerce is responsible for the
conservation and management of marine
fishery resources within the Exclusive
Economic Zone (EEZ) of the United
States through NOAA/NMFS. NMFS
Alaska Region manages the EEZ off
Alaska under the Fishery Management
Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea
and Aleutian Islands Management Area
(BSAI FMP) and the Fishery
Management Plan for Groundfish of the
Gulf of Alaska. The North Pacific
Fishery Management Council
recommended A80 to the BSAI FMP in
June 2006 (72 FR 52668, September 14,
2007). A80 allocates several Bering Sea
and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) nonpollock trawl groundfish species among
trawl fishery sectors, established a
limited access privilege program
(LAPP), and facilitated the formation of
harvesting cooperatives in the nonAmerican Fisheries Act (non-AFA)
trawl catcher/processor sector. More
information on the A80 Program is
provided on the NMFS Alaska Region
website at https://

aleutian-islands-amendment-80groundfish-trawl-fishery.
This collection contains applications
used by an individual or business entity
to apply for A80 quota share, used by
A80 quota shareholders to transfer A80
quota share and to apply for an A80
limited access fishery permit, used by
A80 cooperatives to apply for
cooperative quota and transfer
cooperative quota, used by cooperatives
or Community Development Quota
groups to exchange community quota
for one eligible flatfish species with
community quota of a different eligible
flatfish species, and used by A80 vessel
owners to replace their vessels. This
information collection also contains the
appeals process for an application that
is denied.
The type of information collected
includes information on the applicants,
transferors, transferees, permits, vessels,
quota share, cooperative quota, and
flatfish harvest quota.
NMFS uses this information to
establish eligibility to receive A80 quota
share, cooperative quota, and permits;
transfer and assign harvest quota;
replace vessels used in the A80
Program; determine A80 species initial
total allowable catch assignments;
determine which vessels must be
tracked for catch accounting; and review
ownership and control information to
ensure that quota share and cooperative
quota use caps are not exceeded.
II. Method of Collection
The information is collected primarily
by mail, fax, electronically through
eFISH, or delivery. The Flatfish
Exchange Application must be
submitted through eFISH on the NMFS
Alaska Region website at https://
alaskafisheries.noaa.gov/webapps/efish/
login. The Application for Intercooperative Transfer of Amendment 80
CQ is submitted to NMFS online
through eFISH with the option to mail,
fax, or deliver the application. The
applications are available as fillable
PDFs on the NMFS Alaska Region
website at https://alaskafisheries.
noaa.gov/fisheries-applications.
