Commerce Department

NOTICE: NOTICES

SUBJECT CATEGORY: Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

DOCUMENT SUMMARY:

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: GearMarking Requirements for the Harbor Porpoise Take Reduction Plan.

Form Number(s): None.

OMB Approval Number: 06480357.

Type of Request: Regular submission.

Burden Hours: 41.

Number of Respondents: 50.

Average Hours Per Response: 1 minute.

Needs and Uses: The federal regulations at 50 CFR 229.34 limit the number of nets that can be used in certain fisheries in the mid Atlantic that appear to be most closely linked with accidental catch of harbor porpoises. Fishermen in these fisheries must obtain and attach numbered tags for their nets. Because the number of tags per vessel is capped, the tagging program helps to limit the number of nets in use and helps NOAA identify the number in use.

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations.

Frequency: Every three years.

Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.

OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, (202) 3953897.

Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained by calling or writing Diana Hynek, Departmental Paperwork Clearance Officer, (202) 4820266, Department of Commerce, Room 6625, 14th and Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20230 (or via the Internet at
