DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce (DOC) has submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for 
collection of information under provisions of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    AGENCY: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
    Title: Southeast Region Dealer and Interview Family of Forms.
    Agency Form Number: NOAA 88-12B and 88-30.
    OMB Approval Number: 0648-0013.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Burden: 2,937 hours.
    Avg. Hours Per Response: Varies by requirement but generally 
between 10 and 15 minutes for completion of forms.
    Needs and Uses: Landing statistics are needed for overall 
information on the trends and conditions in the fisheries managed by 
the Federal and state fishery management agencies. Quota monitoring 
data are needed in a timely manner to determine when and if a quota has 
been reached and the fishery should be closed. Size frequency and age 
data are critical components of good quality stock assessments. The 
information, therefore, is used to determine the overall trends in the 
fisheries.

for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: Monthly, bi-weekly.
    Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
