Reporting System (IERS). 

OMB Control Number: 0648–0515. 

Form Number(s): None.

a currently approved information 

collection).

production report. 

Burden Hours: 22,850. 

Needs and Uses: This request is for an 

extension of a current information 

collection. 

eLandings, seaLandings, and 

tLandings are data entry components of 

the Alaska Interagency Electronic 

Reporting System (IERS), which is a 

collaborative program run by the 

National Marine Fisheries Service 

(NMFS) Alaska Regional Office, the 

Alaska Department of Fish and Game 

(ADF&G), and the International Pacific 

Halibut Commission (IPHC). eLandings, 

seaLandings, and tLandings provide the 

Alaska fishing industry with a 

consolidated electronic means of 

reporting production and landings of 

commercial fish and shellfish to 

multiple management agencies with a 

single reporting system. NMFS collects 

groundfish harvest and production data 

for fishery management plan species in 

the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). 

ADF&G collects harvest data for 

groundfish species taken in State of 

Alaska waters and has responsibility for 

some fisheries in the EEZ, such as 

lingcod and black rockfish. ADF&G and 

NMFS cooperatively manage the Crab 

Rationalization Program fisheries in the 

Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands 

Management Area. NMFS and IPHC 

cooperatively manage Individual 

Fishing Quota (IFQ) for Pacific halibut 

and sablefish in both State waters and 

in the EEZ. 

eLandings is a web-based application 

used by vessels and processors to report 

groundfish, crab, Pacific halibut, and 

sablefish production and landings data. 

Processors with limited internet access, 

such as the at-sea fleet, use eLandings 

client desktop software named 

seaLandings, provided by NMFS, and 

submit the required reports as email 

attachments or via direct transmit over 

the Internet. Once data are entered and 

submitted, the User must print daily 

through eLandings each landing report, 

production report, logbook report, and if 

an IFQ delivery, each IFQ receipt. The 

parties to the information must 

acknowledge the accuracy of the printed 

reports by signing them and entering the 

date signed. In addition, the User must 

make the printed copies available upon 

request of NMFS observers and 

authorized officers. 

tLandings is a software application for 

tender vessels that records landings data 

on a USB flash drive and creates a 

printable fish ticket. The fish ticket is 

printed on board the tender vessel and 

signed by the delivering catcher vessel 

operator. When the tender vessel 

delivers to the shoreside processor, the 

shoreside processor uploads the landing 

information on the USB flash drive into 

eLandings. 

Some of the benefits of IERS include 

improved data quality, automated 

processing of data, improved process for 

correcting or updating information, 

availability of more timely data for 

fishery managers, and reduction of 

duplicative reporting of similar 

information to multiple agencies. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: Daily and on occasion. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

This information collection request 

may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow 

the instructions to view Department of 

Commerce collections currently under 

review by OMB. 

Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to OIRA_Submission@

omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.
