1The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 

2021, Division F, Title III, Public Law 117–58, 135 

Stat. 429, 1209 (November 15, 2021). 

2 47 U.S.C. 1723(a)(1)(A). 

3 47 U.S.C. 1723(c). 

obligations the United States undertakes 

internationally regarding tuna 

management through the Atlantic Tunas 

Convention Act (ATCA, 16 U.S.C. 971 et 

seq.). 

Amendment 7 to the 2006 

Consolidated HMS Fishery Management 

Plan (79 FR 71510, December 2, 2014) 

implemented individual bluefin tuna 

quota (IBQ) shares and allocations for 

vessels permitted in the Atlantic Tunas 

Longline category through the IBQ 

online system. IBQs are intended to 

fairly and effectively allocate limited 

quota for incidental capture of Atlantic 

bluefin tuna among vessels in the 

Longline category, while minimizing 

dead discards and discouraging 

interactions with bluefin tuna. An 

online system developed by NMFS 

tracks allocations and allocation leases, 

and reconciles allocation with bluefin 

tuna catches for quota monitoring. This 

collection of information accounts for 

the reporting burden associated with 

allocation and lease tracking. 

Amendment 13 to the 2006 

Consolidated HMS FMP (87 FR 59966) 

reaffirmed the need for IBQs and, among 

other things, made adjustments to the 

vessel allocation process, and 

established procedures for cost recovery 

if deemed necessary. 

First-time vessel permit holders in the 

affected categories must obtain and set 

up an IBQ account in the online ‘‘IBQ 

Catch Shares Program’’ in order to be 

issued IBQ shares and resultant 

allocation, to lease IBQ, and to resolve 

quota debt. To use the electronic IBQ 

System, first-time participants will need 

to request an account and set their 

account up with background 

information. The information collected 

during account issuance and set-up will 

be used by NMFS to verify the identity 

of the individual/business and whether 

they qualify for IBQ allocation leasing. 

The lease monitoring information 

collected by the online system will be 

used by each permit holder to keep 

track of their individual IBQ allocation, 

and document allocation leases with 

other IBQ participants. NMFS will use 

these data to ensure proper accounting 

of allocations among participants, and 

to track use of quota allocations and 

reconcile allocation usage with bluefin 

tuna catch and landings. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations. 

Frequency: Once for IBQ account set 

up; annually, or as needed, for IBQ lease 

applications; and annually for IBQ cost 

recovery. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

Legal Authority: Magnuson-Stevens 

Fishery Conservation and Management 

Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), and the 

Atlantic Tunas Convention Act of 1975 

(16 U.S.C. 971 et seq.).
