DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    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: Limits on Application of Take Prohibitions.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0399.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular submission.
    Number of Respondents: 301.
    Average Hours per Response: Research and other applications, and 
reports of aiding/rescuing salmon, 5 hours; annual reports, 2 hours.
    Burden Hours: 1,705.
    Needs and Uses: In accordance with Section 4(d) of the Endangered 
Species Act (ESA), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 
(NOAA) promulgates regulations that would prohibit ``take'' (e.g., 
harassment or harm) of threatened salmonids. These regulations identify 
conservation-oriented programs or circumstances in which the ESA's take 
prohibitions would not apply. States, local governments, and other 
entities may submit information to demonstrate that a program qualifies 
to be within those specified programs or circumstances (and therefore 
would not be subject to the prohibitions).
    Affected Public: State, local and tribal government; business and 
other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: Annually and on occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
    OMB Desk Officer: David Rostker, (202) 395-3897.
