DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

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 (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35). 

Agency: National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). 

Title: Alaska Rockfish Pilot Program. 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0545. 

Form Number(s): None. 

Type of Request: Regular submission. 

Number of Respondents: 55. 

Average Hours per Response: 

Applications for cooperative fishing 

quota, limited access fishery, entry-level 

fishery, and application to opt out of 

rockfish fishery, 2 hours each; 

application for inter-cooperative transfer

Burden Hours: 496. 

Needs and Uses: As part of planning 

by the North Pacific Fishery 

Management Council under the 

Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 

Conservation and Management Act, the 

Rockfish Pilot Program was developed 

for management of three rockfish 

fisheries in the Central Gulf of Alaska 

(CGOA) in the Exclusive Economic 

Zone off the coast of Alaska. The 

Program was implemented in order to 

improve the economic efficiency of the 

CGOA rockfish fisheries and was 

designed to result in a slower-paced 

fishery that would allow the harvester to 

choose when to fish and therefore avoid 

poor weather and also to provide greater 

stability for processors by spreading 

production over a greater period of time. 

The Rockfish Pilot Program is scheduled 

to end December 31, 2011. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations. 

Frequency: Annually and on occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits.
