Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Revisions to 
Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: NMFS is revising several sections of regulations that pertain 
to permits, recordkeeping, and reporting for the groundfish fisheries 
of the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) off Alaska. These changes are 
necessary to clarify existing text, facilitate management of the 
fisheries, promote compliance with regulations, and facilitate 
enforcement efforts. This action is intended to further the goals and 
objectives of the fishery management plans (FMPs) for the fisheries of 
the EEZ off Alaska.

EFFECTIVE DATE: May 12, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patsy A. Bearden, 907-586-7228.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    NMFS manages the groundfish fisheries in the EEZ off Alaska under

[[Page 17754]]

authority of the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of 
Alaska and the Fishery Management Plan for the Groundfish Fishery of 
the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Area. These FMPs are implemented by 
regulations at 50 CFR part 679. General regulations that also pertain 
to these fisheries appear in subpart H of 50 CFR part 600. The FMPs 
were prepared by the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) 
under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and 
Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act).
    A proposed rule to revise regulations that implement permit and 
recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the Alaska groundfish 
fisheries was published in the Federal Register on December 23, 1996 
(61 FR 67524). A description of these revisions and the justification 
for them is presented in the preamble to the proposed rule. Public 
comment on the proposed rule was invited through January 22, 1997. NMFS 
received 4 letters containing 11 comments, which are summarized and 
responded to below under Response to Comments.

Changes to the Final Rule from the Proposed Rule

    The final rule includes the following changes from the proposed 
rule:
    1. The proposed rule had added a new definition of ``fishing trip'' 
at Sec. 679.2 for purposes of catcher vessel and mothership logbook 
requirements. The intent of this logbook trip designation was to record 
trip numbers that could be correlated with observer trips to enable 
more effective cross-checking of observer and logbook data. Since the 
proposed rule was published, increased confusion has occurred due to 
the number of different uses or definitions of the term ``fishing 
trip.'' In view of this confusion, NMFS has reassessed the need to add 
a fourth definition of ``fishing trip'' and has removed it from the 
final rule.
    2. In Sec. 679.5, paragraph (a)(2) is revised to clarify the 
applicability of recordkeeping and reporting requirements to shoreside 
processors and vessels operating solely as a mothership in Alaska State 
waters to maintain consistency with requirements for a Federal 
processor permit.
    3. In Sec. 679.5, paragraph (d)(2) is corrected to read ``operator 
or manager'' to be consistent with other parts of the regulations 
pertaining to buying stations, which may be either a vessel or a land-
based operation.
    4. In Sec. 679.5, paragraph (c)(3)(ii)(D) is revised to clarify 
that estimated total round fish weight may be recorded to either the 
nearest lb or mt.
    5. In Sec. 679.5, paragraph (a)(10) is revised to change NMFS' 
approach to discard reporting in response to Comment 1. NMFS will 
require ``best estimate practicable to the nearest 0.001 mt'' of 
discards rather than absolute quantities. Under this approach, the 
processor would estimate discard amounts in either number of fish (for 
Pacific salmon, Pacific halibut, steelhead trout, king crab, and Tanner 
crab) or the weight of fish (for groundfish and Pacific herring). Many 
processors rely on observers sampling calculations of discard, which 
are based on estimated catch weights, to record their discards. 
Currently NMFS does not require scales on board processor vessels or 
weighing of discards, although NMFS and the Council are interested in 
pursuing scale weight requirements for retained and discarded catch in 
the near future.

Response to Comments

    Comment 1. Recording species product and discard weights to the 
nearest 0.001 mt in a daily cumulative production logbook (DCPL) and 
weekly production report (WPR) requires an impossible level of 
accuracy, especially for discards. In fact, vessel estimated catch 
weights (to the nearest mt) often are used by observers to derive 
estimated discard amounts.
    Response. The assumption for calculation of species product weight 
is that products can be and are weighed by processors to the 0.001 mt 
level. Accurate groundfish product weight is currently available in the 
fishing industry as part of everyday business, and NMFS assumes that 
operators/managers will use the best information available in recording 
this information. NMFS acknowledges that reporting of accurate discard 
amounts to 0.001 mt is not feasible for most processors. Therefore, 
NMFS will require reporting of discards to be the ``best estimate 
practicable to the nearest 0.001 mt'' of discards rather than absolute 
quantities. The requirement to provide species product and discard 
weights to the nearest 0.001 mt is necessary to monitor and manage 
harvests of species with small quotas (see response to Comment 4).
    Comment 2. Recording product and discard weights to the nearest 
0.001 mt will require that a company's vessel and programming staff 
spend considerable time to rewrite the company's software supporting 
production, discard, and electronic reporting systems to accommodate 
the extra decimal point; the upgrade of vessel software, particularly 
if the vessel is at sea, has the potential to run into the thousands of 
dollars.
    Response. NMFS provides logbooks and forms to the fishing industry 
free-of-charge for purposes of recordkeeping and reporting. Although 
NMFS endorses independent development of software to facilitate timely 
and efficient submission of reports, NMFS' approval of a processor's 
electronic submission of required reports does not limit NMFS' ability 
to revise the recordkeeping and reporting requirements. NMFS recognizes 
that there is a cost to upgrade company software. However, NMFS 
believes the benefit to industry of the resulting increased accuracy of 
inseason quota management actions, without the time required to 
complete or process the forms or the frequency of submittal due to the 
actions of the respondents, justifies this cost.
    Comment 3. Reporting to the nearest kg will help harmonize the NMFS 
reporting requirements with the State of Alaska landing tax, thus 
making the NMFS reports more useful in calculating the tax assessment.
    Response. NMFS agrees, although facilitating recordkeeping and 
reporting for purposes of the Alaska State landing tax was not the 
purpose of the proposed changes to the Federal recordkeeping and 
reporting program.
    Comment 4. It seems misleading to seek the precision of measuring 
to the nearest billionth of unit of the total cap of 2,000,000 mt as an 
enhancement of the scientific management or conservation goals of the 
Magnuson-Stevens Act.
    Response. Concern exists over NMFS' ability to manage relatively 
small quotas specified for several groundfish species, e.g., rockfish, 
such that even small amounts of these species must be accounted for to 
avoid overharvesting quotas and prevent overfishing. This change would 
allow NMFS to obtain more accurate catch data from processors receiving 
small amounts of these species.
    Comment 5. The 1997 catcher vessel daily fishing logbook (DFL) and 
the catcher/processor DCPL pages do not contain enough room to record 
the retained and discarded amounts of the variety of species caught.
    Response. To accommodate information necessary to enforce the 
Individual Fishing Quota (IFQ) Program, NMFS reduced the space 
available on the vessel logbook sheets to record species information. 
NMFS will address this constraint in the 1998 logbook format.
    Comment 6. The 1997 catcher vessel DFL and catcher/processor DCPL 
have a

[[Page 17755]]

reduced number of lines for haul data on each page; this will result in 
a significant increase in the number of logbooks used in 1997 compared 
with prior years.
    Response. To accommodate the addition of IFQ information on each 
page, NMFS removed some rows previously used to record haul data. NMFS 
will address this constraint in the 1998 logbook format.
    Comment 7. The 1997 catcher vessel DFL and catcher/processor DCPL 
indicate pages are to be numbered as ``page __ of __'', but no 
information is provided on how the second number is to be determined.
    Response. NMFS agrees. The fishing industry is advised to disregard 
the ``of __'' portion of this designation and to number the pages 
consecutively beginning with page one and continuing throughout the 
logbook for the remainder of the fishing year, per the regulations. 
This format error will be corrected in the 1998 logbook format.
    Comment 8. The 1997 catcher vessel DFL and catcher/processor DCPL 
do not provide a space to record the ``date'' on each page.
    Response. NMFS agrees. The fishing industry is advised to enter the 
daily date on each page at the bottom of the vessel name field. This 
format error will be corrected in 1998 logbooks.
    Comment 9. In the 1997 catcher vessel DFL and catcher/processor 
DCPL, the logbook field previously identified as ``number of observers 
onboard'' has been changed to ``observer onboard--yes or no''; this 
makes it difficult to indicate when there is one or more observers 
onboard.
    Response. NMFS agrees. The fishing industry is advised to write the 
number of observers aboard (``0'', ``1'', or ``2'') over the Observer 
Onboard YES/NO box. This format error will be corrected in the 1998 
logbooks.
    Comment 10. In the Discard/Donate section of the catcher/processor 
DCPL, it seems that the words ``cumulative total since last delivery'' 
are inappropriate.
    Response. NMFS agrees. The fishing industry is advised to enter the 
words in the Discard/Donate section, ``Weekly cumulative total'' in 
place of ``cumulative total since last delivery'' and summarize 
discards at the end of each weekly reporting period. This format error 
will be corrected in the 1998 logbooks.
    Comment 11. The catcher vessel instruction manual states that 
estimated round catch weight be recorded to the nearest 0.001 mt. An 
estimate of this accuracy is not possible.
    Response. NMFS agrees. Estimated round catch weight may be recorded 
either to the nearest lb or mt, whichever the vessel operator believes 
most appropriate. A revised catcher vessel instruction manual will be 
issued in 1997 to correct this error. In regulations, 
Sec. 679.5(c)(3)(ii)(D) is revised accordingly.

Classification

    The Administrator, Alaska Region, NMFS, determined that the 
regulatory amendment is necessary for the conservation and management 
of the GOA and BSAI management area fisheries and that it is consistent 
with the Magnuson-Stevens Act and other applicable laws.
    The Assistant General Counsel for Legislation and Regulation of the 
Department of Commerce certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of 
the Small Business Administration that this rule would not have a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. 
The reasons were published in the proposed rule (61 FR 67525, December 
23, 1996). No comments were received regarding the certification. As a 
result, a regulatory flexibility analysis was not prepared.
    This rule has been determined to be not significant for purposes of 
E.O. 12866.
    This rule contains collection-of-information requirements subject 
to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The collections of information 
have been approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), OMB 
Control Numbers 0648-0206 and 0648-0213.
    a. Approved under 0648-0206--Alaska permits. There are no new forms 
or revisions to forms; renewal cycle for Federal fisheries permit and 
Federal processor permit is extended from 1 to 3 years. The information 
collection requirements for the Federal processor permit are repeated 
in this rule and have an estimated response time of 0.33 hour per 
response.
    b. Approved under 0648-0213--Alaska Region Logbook Family of Forms: 
Revisions to existing forms have the following effects: Estimated time 
for the operator of a catcher vessel with fixed gear to complete a DFL 
increases from 0.25 hour per response to 0.33 hour per response; 
estimated time for the operator of a catcher/processor with fixed gear 
to complete a catcher/processor DCPL increases from 0.45 hour per 
response to 0.53 hour per response; estimated time for the operator of 
a catcher vessel with gear other than fixed gear to complete a DFL 
increases from 0.25 hour per response to 0.28 hour per response; 
estimated time for the operator of a catcher/processor with gear other 
than fixed gear to complete a catcher/processor DCPL increases from 
0.45 hour per response to 0.48 hour per response. The estimated 
response times shown include the time to review instructions, search 
existing data sources, gather and maintain the data needed, and 
complete and review the collection-of-information.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required 
to respond to nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to 
comply with a collection-of-information subject to the requirements of 
the PRA unless that collection-of-information displays a currently 
valid OMB control number.
    Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of 
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this 
burden, to NMFS and to OIRA, OMB (see ADDRESSES).
    This action has been determined to be not significant for purposes 
of E.O. 12866.

    Dated: April 7, 1997.
Nancy Foster,
Deputy Assistant Administrator for Fisheries, National Marine Fisheries 
Service.
    For the reasons set out in the preamble, 50 CFR part 679 is amended 
as follows:

PART 679--FISHERIES OF THE EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE OFF ALASKA

    1. The authority citation for 50 CFR part 679 continues to read as 
follows:

Sec. 679.2  Definitions.

* * * * *
    Fish product weight means the weight of the fish product in pounds 
or to at least the nearest thousandth of a metric ton (0.001 mt). Fish 
product weight is based upon the number of production units and the 
weight of those units. Production units include pans, cartons, blocks, 
trays, cans, bags, and individual fresh or frozen fish. The weight of a 
production unit is the average weight of representative samples of the 
product, and, for fish other than fresh fish, may include additives or 
water but not packaging. Any allowance for water added cannot exceed 5 
percent of the gross product weight (fish, additives, and water).
* * * * *

Tables 1 and 2 of this part for each gear type, CDQ number, and 
reporting area, whether in Alaska State waters or Federal waters.
    (B) If there were no discards or donations, write ``NO DISCARDS'', 
``0'', or ``ZERO'' for that day.
* * * * *
    (ii) Catcher vessel discards/donations. (A) The operator must 
record in the DFL each day on the day discards and donations as 
follows:
    (1) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated round fish weight for each discard or 
donation of groundfish species, groundfish species groups, and Pacific 
herring in lb, or to at least the nearest 0.001 mt.
    (2) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated numbers for each discard and donation of 
Pacific salmon, steelhead trout, halibut, king crab, and Tanner crab.
    (B) For deliveries of unsorted codends, the catcher vessel is 
exempt from recording discards in the DFL and from submittal of the 
blue logsheet (discards copy) for that delivery. The operator must 
check the box entitled ``unsorted codend,'' and the blue DFL logsheet 
(discards copy) remains in the DFL.
    (C) For presorted deliveries or in the event a catcher vessel has 
``bled'' a codend prior to delivery to a processor, the operator must 
check the ``presorted delivery'' box, enter the estimated amount of 
discards or donations by species, and submit with each harvest delivery 
the blue DFL logsheet (discards copy) to the mothership, buying 
station, or shoreside processor.
    (iii) Buying station discards/donations. (A) The operator or 
manager must record in the DCL on a daily basis, all estimated discards 
or donations that:
    (1) Are reported by a catcher vessel delivering groundfish to the 
buying station;
    (2) Occur after receipt of harvest from a catcher vessel; and
    (3) Occur prior to delivery of harvest to a mothership or shoreside 
processor.
    (B) The operator or manager must record in the DCL each day on the 
day discards and donations occur:
    (1) Estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and cumulative 
total estimated round fish weight for each discard or donation of 
groundfish species, groundfish species groups, and Pacific herring in 
pounds, or to at least the nearest 0.001 mt.
    (2) Estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and cumulative 
total estimated numbers for each discard and donation of Pacific 
salmon, steelhead trout, halibut, king crab, and Tanner crab.
    (C) If a blue DFL logsheet submitted to the buying station from a 
catcher vessel contains reports of discards or donations, the operator 
or manager of a buying station must record in the DCL the discards and 
donations on the day the DFL logsheet is received from the catcher 
vessel.

[[Page 17757]]

    (iv) Catcher/processor discards/donations. The operator of a 
catcher/processor must record in the DCPL each day on the day discards 
or donations occur, as follows:
    (A) All discards or donations that occur prior to harvest, during 
harvest, and during processing.
    (B) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated round fish weight for each discard or 
donation of groundfish species, groundfish species groups, and Pacific 
herring in pounds, or to at least the nearest 0.001 mt.
    (C) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated numbers for each discard and donation of 
Pacific salmon, steelhead trout, halibut, king crab, and Tanner crab.
    (v) Mothership or shoreside processor discards/donations. (A) The 
operator of a mothership or manager of a shoreside processor must 
record in the DCPL each day on the day discards or donations occur 
that:
    (1) Are reported on a blue DFL logsheet by a catcher vessel 
delivering groundfish to the mothership or shoreside processor.
    (2) Occur on site after receipt of groundfish from a catcher 
vessel.
    (3) Occur during processing of groundfish.
    (B) The operator of a mothership or manager of a shoreside 
processor must record in the DCPL:
    (1) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated round fish weight for each discard or 
donation of groundfish species, groundfish species groups, and Pacific 
herring in pounds, or to at least the nearest 0.001 mt.
    (2) The estimated daily total, balance brought forward, and 
cumulative total estimated numbers for each discard and donation of 
Pacific salmon, steelhead trout, halibut, king crab, and Tanner crab.
    (C) If an unsorted codend is received from a catcher vessel, the 
catcher vessel is not required to submit a blue discard logsheet to the 
mothership or shoreside processor. The operator of a mothership or 
manager of a shoreside processor must sort the catch received from the 
unsorted codends and must record the discards by species in the DCPL as 
discard at sea on the day the harvest is received from the catcher 
vessel.
    (D) If discards are reported on a blue DFL logsheet from a catcher 
vessel delivering a presorted codend or if a catcher vessel reports an 
amount bled at sea, the operator of a mothership or manager of a 
shoreside processor must record in the DCPL the discards on the day the 
DFL logsheet is received from the catcher vessel.
    (E) If a yellow DCL logsheet is received from a buying station and 
discards or donations are reported, the operator of a mothership or 
manager of a shoreside processor must record in the DCPL the discards 
or donations on the day the DCL logsheet is received from the buying 
station.
