in the GOA. Data collected through the economic data reports (EDRs) 
include labor information, revenues received, capital and operational

management regime, including catch share program implementation.
    The Catcher Vessel GOA Trawl EDR is submitted by owners or 
leaseholders of catcher vessels that harvest groundfish using trawl 
gear from the GOA or parallel fisheries. The Processor GOA Trawl EDR is 
submitted by owners or leaseholders of shoreside processors or 
stationary floating processors that receive deliveries from vessels 
that harvest groundfish using trawl gear from the GOA or parallel 
fisheries. Annual submission of these EDRs is mandatory.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
