Needs and Uses: This is a request for
renewal of an approved information
collection. This collection is necessary
under the regulations implementing the
Coastal Pelagic Species (CPS) Fishery
Management Plan (FMP) at 50 CFR
660.520.
On May 30, 2007, NOAA’s National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)
published a final rule (72 FR 29891)
implementing a requirement under the
CPS FMP to report any interactions that
may occur between a CPS vessel and/or
fishing gear and sea otters. In
accordance with the regulations
implementing the Endangered Species
Act (ESA), NMFS initiated an ESA
section 7 consultation with the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) regarding the effects of
implementing the final rule (72 FR
29891), which codified Amendment 11
to the CPS FMP. USFWS determined
that formal consultation was necessary
on the possible effects to the threatened
southern sea otter. USFWS completed a
biological opinion for this action and
although it was concluded that fishing
activities were not likely to jeopardize
the continued existence of the southern
sea otter, there remained the potential to
incidentally take southern sea otters.
USFWS determined that certain
measures should be put in place to
ensure the continued protection of the
species, including certain reporting
requirements.
Specifically, these reporting
requirements are:
(1) If a southern sea otter is entangled
in a net, regardless of whether the
animal is injured or killed, the vessel
operator must report this interaction
within 24 hours to the Regional
Administrator.
(2) While fishing for CPS, vessel
operators must record all observations
of otter interactions (defined as otters
within encircled nets or coming into
contact with nets or vessels, including
but not limited to entanglement) with
their purse seine net(s) or vessel(s).
With the exception of an entanglement,
which must be initially reported as
described in paragraph (1) of this
section, all other observations must be
reported within 20 days to the Regional
Administrator.
(3) When contacting NMFS after an
interaction, vessel operators must
provide the location (latitude and
longitude) of the interaction and a
description of the interaction itself. If
available, location information should
also include water depth, distance from
shore, and relation to port or other
landmarks. Descriptive information of
the interaction should include whether
or not the otters were seen inside or

outside the net; if inside the net, had the
net been completely encircled; whether
any otters came in contact with either
the net or the vessel; the number of
otters present; duration of interaction;
the otter’s behavior during interaction;
measures taken to avoid interaction.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.
Frequency: As necessary.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: 50 CFR 660.520;
MSA.
