Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request

The Department of Commerce has 

submitted to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for clearance the 

following proposal for collection of 

information under the provisions of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35).

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Title: Reporting Requirements for the 

Ocean Salmon Fishery off the Coasts of 

Washington, Oregon, and California.

Form Number(s): None.

OMB Approval Number: 0648-0433.

Type of Request: Regular submission.

Burden Hours: 10.

Number of Respondents: 40.

Average Hours Per Response: 15 

minutes.

Needs and Uses: Based on the 

management regime specified each year, 

designated regulatory areas in the 

commercial ocean salmon fishery off the 

coasts of Washington, Oregon, and 

California may be managed by 

numerical quotas. To accurately assess 

catches relative to quota attainment 

during the fishing season, catch data by 

regulatory area must be collected in a 

timely manner. The requirements to 

land salmon within specific time frames 

and in specific areas may be 

implemented in the preseason 

regulations to aid in timely and accurate 

catch accounting for a regulatory area. 

The state landing systems normally 

gather the data at the time of landing. If 

unsafe weather conditions or 

mechanical problems prevent 

compliance with landing requirements, 

fishermen need an alternative to allow 

for a safe response. Fishermen would be 

exempt from landing requirements so 

long as the appropriate notifications are 

made providing the name of the vessel, 

the port where delivery will be made, 

the approximate amount of salmon (by 

species) on board, and the estimated 

time of arrival.

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.

Frequency: On occasion.

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits.
