BILLING CODE 3510–13–P 

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

National Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

The Department of Commerce will 

submit 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. 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 

Title: Reporting of Sea Turtle 

Incidental Take in Virginia Chesapeake 

Bay Pound Net Operations. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0470. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular (extension of 

a currently approved information 

collection). 

Number of Respondents: 35. 

Average Hours per Response: 10 

minutes. 

Burden Hours: 165. 

Needs and Uses: This request is for 

extension of a current information 

collection. 

This action would continue the 

reporting measure requiring all Virginia 

Chesapeake Bay pound net fishermen to 

report interactions with endangered and 

threatened sea turtles, found both live 

and dead, in their pound net operations. 

When a live or dead sea turtle is 

discovered during a pound net trip, the 

Virginia pound net fisherman is 

required to report the incidental take to 

National Marine Fisheries Service 

(NMFS) and, if necessary, the 

appropriate rehabilitation and stranding 

network. This information will be used 

to monitor the level of incidental take in 

the state-managed Virginia pound net 

fishery and ensure that the seasonal 

pound net leader restrictions (50 CFR 

223.206(d)(10)) are adequately 

protecting listed sea turtles. Based on 

the number of sea turtle takes 

anticipated in the Virginia pound net 

fishery and the available number of 

Virginia pound net fishermen and 

pound nets, the number of responses 

anticipated on an annual basis is 988. 

This is an increase from the previous 

information collection (n=483) as we 

used the maximum number of possible 

licensed pound net sites per Virginia 

fishery regulations (n=161) on which to 

base our information collection 

estimate, rather than the number of 

documented sites from NMFS 

monitoring efforts (n=80), as the latter is 

outdated and may be an underestimate. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow 

the instructions to view Department of 

Commerce collections currently under 

review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to OIRA_Submission@

omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806. 

Dated: August 28, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

This request is for extension of this 

information collection. 

NOAA Fisheries, Southeast Fisheries 

Science Center, annually collects 

socioeconomic data from commercial 

fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and 

South Atlantic shrimp fisheries who 

hold one or more permits for harvesting 

shrimp from federal waters (U.S. 

Exclusive Economic Zone). Information 

about revenues, variable and fixed costs, 

capital investment and other 

socioeconomic information is collected 

from a random sample of permit 

holders. These data are needed to 

conduct socioeconomic analyses in 

support of management of the shrimp 

fishery and to satisfy legal requirements. 

The data will be used to assess how 

fishermen will be impacted by and 

respond to federal regulation likely to be 

considered by fishery managers. 

II. Method of Collection 

The information will be collected on 

paper using a mail survey. 

III. Data 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0591. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Review: Regular submission 

(extension of a current information 

collection). 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or 

households. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

650 permit holders.
