The National Marine Fisheries Service operates a fee-for-service Seafood Inspection Program (SIP), available to all segments of the seafood industry. Participants request services such as product inspection, export health and legal harvest certification, and facility approval. Information is collected from participants to confirm the identity of products being inspected and certified, as well as to show compliance with Program requirements. The implementing regulations for this Program at 50 CFR 260 are being updated to bring the regulation more in line with current practices, remove outdated text, and streamline seafood inspection services. The last updated information collection (published January 19, 2022, with expiration date January 31, 2025) already included all of the changes proposed with this rulemaking, including the shift to online inspection and service requests and housing day-to-day procedures in the online SIP Manual versus in codified text.
