DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

[052401A]


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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: North Carolina and Louisiana Commercial King and/or Spanish 
Mackerel Fishermen Pilot Economic Study.
    Form Number(s): None.
    OMB Approval Number: None.
    Type of Request: Regular submission.
    Burden Hours: 154.
    Number of Respondents: 140.
    Average Hours Per Response: 12 minutes per screening form, 5 
minutes for a captain form when completed by an owner, 20 minutes for 
an owner form, 15 minutes for a captain form when the captain is not an 
owner, and 15 minutes for a trip questionnaire.
    Needs and Uses: The North Carolina and Louisiana Commercial King 
and/or Spanish Mackerel Fishermen Pilot Economic Survey will consist of 
telephone screening followed by in-person interviews of commercial 
fishermen in North Carolina and Louisiana possessing Federal commercial 
mackerel fishing permits. The survey will provide NMFS with economic 
information to better estimate the effects of regulations proposed for 
the king and Spanish mackerel commercial fisheries. The survey will 
also provide a better basis for designing statistically-random surveys 
for other strata of the population of boats that engage in these and 
other fisheries throughout the southeast (coastal states of North 
Carolina to Texas). Monitoring of these fisheries is required under the 
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: One-time, three times a year.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, (202) 395-3897.
