Fisheries of the Exclusive Economic Zone Off Alaska; Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements; Alaska Commercial Operator’s Annual Report
A Rule by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on 08/20/2001

NMFS issues a final rule to amend portions of the regulations implementing the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for groundfish fisheries in the Exclusive Economic Zone to require groundfish motherships and catcher/processors to submit annually to the State of Alaska, Department of Fish & Game (ADF&G), a Commercial Operator's Annual Report (COAR). This action is necessary to gather information on exvessel and first wholesale values for state-wide finfish and shellfish products from catcher/processors and motherships at sea. These data together with the information already gathered from shoreside processors and stationary floating processors will provide a means to compare value information (in dollars) of different types of species and products from all processors of fish harvested from Alaska State and Federal waters within a year and comparisons of several years through consistent yearly collection of information. This action is intended to further the goals and objectives of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) with respect to the collection and analysis of economical data.
Copies of the Regulatory Impact Review (RIR) prepared for this action may be obtained from the Sustainable Fisheries Division, Alaska Region, NMFS, P.O. Box 21668, Juneau, AK 99802-1668, Attn: Lori Gravel, or by calling the Alaska Region, NMFS, at 907-685-7228.
Comments involving the reporting burden estimates or any other aspects of the collection of information requirements contained in this final rule should be sent to both Lori Gravel, at the preceding address, and to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Washington, DC 20503 (Attn: NOAA Desk Officer). Comments sent by e-mail or the Internet will not be accepted.
NMFS manages fishing for groundfish by U.S. vessels in the exclusive economic zone of the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area under the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Gulf of Alaska and the Fishery Management Plan for the Groundfish Fishery of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Area (FMPs). The Council prepared the FMPs under authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Act. Regulations implementing the FMPs at 50 CFR part 679 and subpart H of 50 CFR part 600 govern fishing by U.S. vessels. Recordkeeping and reporting requirements appear at 50 CFR 679.5.
This final rule implements the following changes to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements: (1) In § 679.2, add a definition of COAR; (2) in § 679.5, add a paragraph (p) that establishes requirements on completing and submitting the COAR; (3) revise Table 14—Ports of landing, Table 15—Gear Codes, descriptions, and use; (4) add Table 16—Area Codes and descriptions for use with ADF&G COAR, Table 17—COAR Process Codes, and Table 18—COAR Buying and Production Forms.
This action results in a substantive regulatory revision, namely, the addition of a requirement that catcher/processors and motherships submit an annual COAR detailing exvessel and first wholesale value data for fish and shellfish products. This action is necessary to gather information on exvessel and first wholesale values for state-wide finfish and shellfish products from catcher/processors and motherships at sea. These data together with the information already gathered Start Printed Page 43525from shoreside processors and stationary floating processors will provide a means to compare value information (in dollars) of different types of species and products from all processors of fish harvested from Alaska State and Federal waters within a year and comparisons of several years through consistent yearly collection of information. The additional requirement will:
(1) Allow NMFS staff to obtain for all processing sectors equivalent annual product value information and a consistent time series of information; in other words, the added data will provide a means to compare value information (in dollars) of different types of species and products from all processors of fish harvested from Alaska State and Federal waters within a year and comparisons of several years through a consistent yearly collection of information.
(2) Provide an enhanced socioeconomic database that NMFS will use to measure economic and socioeconomic impacts more accurately and to prepare economic analyses of proposed or existing management measures in compliance with the mandates of Executive Order (E.O.) 12866, the Magnuson-Stevens Act, including national standards 2, 4, 7 and 8, the American Fisheries Act (to monitor and report to Congress on the effects and efficacy of the new groundfish management programs), and the Regulatory Flexibility Act.
(3) Provide detailed (and consistent) data on production, prices, and product forms that NMFS will use to respond to requests for economic information from Federal and state management agencies, the fishing industry, and the general public.
(4) Provide a database that NMFS will use in the annual NMFS Stock Assessment and Fishery Evaluation (SAFE) documents for the groundfish fisheries of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) and Gulf of Alaska (GOA), in annual Federal publications on the value of U.S. commercial fisheries (e.g., Fisheries of the United States), and in periodic reports to economists that describe the fisheries and that serve as reference documents to management agencies, the industry, and others.
Some negative impacts could be encountered by some processors who would need to restructure their computer accounting systems to allow for the State of Alaska area codes that are distinct to the COAR. Otherwise, the codes are the same as those used on ADF&G fish tickets and in NMFS’ recordkeeping and reporting.
NMFS published a proposed rule to implement these revisions in the Federal Register on December 14, 2000 (65 FR 78131). The preamble to the proposed rule contains a full description of the revisions and their justification, which is not repeated here. NMFS invited public comment on the changes contained in this action through January 16, 2001.
Comment. The comment supported the proposed COAR requirement, but cautioned that the methodology for calculating the data points (e.g., standardizing point of first wholesale pricing, shipping factors) needed to be the same across processing sectors of the fisheries. The commentor was concerned that the data computation point(s) are vague and that care should be taken that the data collected under this final rule are comparable to those already collected by the State of Alaska. The commentor added that the terms “mothership” and “catcher/processor” need to be clearly defined.
Response. The State’s existing data collection system will be used by NMFS for both the current shoreside collection and the new at-sea collection. The COAR form will be completed and submitted to ADF&G who will enter the data in the database. For the Federal system, NMFS has precisely defined “mothership” and “catcher/processor” for purposes of recordkeeping and reporting, and under these definitions the processors are required to submit the COAR. Accordingly, NMFS’ COAR is analogous with the State of Alaska COAR.
Although some editorial changes were made to the regulatory text in this final rule, no substantive changes were made from the proposed regulatory text. An explanation of the editorial changes follows:
Table 14 (a). The title of Table 14 (a) is changed to read, “Port of Landing Codes, including CDQ and IFQ Primary Ports—(a) United States, Alaska.” The port code for Unalaska (180) is removed, and code 119 is renamed to read Dutch Harbor/Unalaska. Several port codes are added: XIP (124) for Excursion Inlet; FSP for False Pass, KOD (146) for Kodiak; (162) Portage Bay (Petersburg); and (182) West Anchor Cove. The port, “Other/Unknown” is revised to read “Other” and UNK (499).
Table 14 (b). The title of Table 14 (b) is changed to read, “Port of Landing Codes, including CDQ and IFQ Primary Ports—(b) United States, non-Alaska.” A footnote (1) is added to explain how to record a location not assigned a code.
Table 14 (c). The title of Table 14 (c) is changed to read, “Port of Landing Codes, including CDQ and IFQ Primary Ports—(c) Canada.” A footnote (1) is added to explain how to record a location not assigned a code.
The Administrator, Alaska Region, NMFS (Regional Administrator), determined that this final rule is necessary for the conservation and management of the groundfish fisheries off Alaska.
This final rule contains collection-of-information requirements subject to the PRA that have been approved by OMB under control no. 0648-0428. The estimated response time to complete a COAR is estimated to range from 0.5 hr to 16 hr, an average of 8 hr per year.
This final rule was developed through a joint effort between the State of Alaska ADF&G and the NMFS Alaska Region. This cooperative endeavor will result in a combined database consisting of exvessel and first wholesale value information (in dollars) as well as production information from all processors of fish species and products harvested from State of Alaska waters and Federal waters off Alaska. This database will be updated annually and will allow historical economic comparisons through a consistent collection of information.
In the late 1980's, NMFS and the State of Alaska ADF&G began to jointly collect COAR data for the shoreside sector. Prior to that, ADF&G collected the COAR data and NMFS collected data for its own survey. The groundfish COAR was collected for 4 years cooperatively by NMFS and ADF&G. The two agencies jointly developed the procedure and proposed Federal regulations for gathering information from motherships and catcher/processors to add the information already collected from shoreside processors and stationary floating processors by the State of Alaska. The procedure is based on using the State of Alaska’s 25-year old COAR data collection to the greatest extent to accomplish NMFS’ statutory goal of information collection while enhancing the State of Alaska’s database and goals.
The two agencies have agreed to use one COAR form for the State of Alaska’s and NMFS’ requirements. In addition, the agencies agreed that the COAR forms will be sent directly by the processors to ADF&G for data entry, verification, and storage. Since 2000, two staff persons at ADF&G have been funded by a NOAA grant to assist with COAR data entry and to improve the quality and efficiency of the COAR database. This funding is expected to increase to cover the additional costs associated with at-sea processor COAR submittal. State ADF&G staff will contact the processors for verification of information and for any questionable responses on the COAR and to ensure that each processor required to submit a COAR by either State of Alaska or Federal requirements does in fact submit the COAR to ADF&G. NMFS staff will receive copies (paper or electronic) of the database on request to ADF&G.
The combined database will provide a means to compare exvessel and first wholesale value information (in dollars) from all processors of different species and products of fish harvested from State of Alaska waters and Federal waters off Alaska by year and will allow historical comparisons through consistent collections of information through the years.
