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: Processed Products Family of Forms.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0018.
    Form Number(s): NOAA 88-13 and NOAA 88-13C.
    Type of Request: Regular (revision of a current information 
collection).
    Number of Respondents: 2,038.
    Average Hours per Response: Annual report, 30 minutes; monthly 
report; 15 minutes; one-time add-on to the annual survey, 30 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 651.
    Needs and Uses: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 
(NOAA) annually collects information from seafood and industrial 
fishing processing plants on the volume and value of their processed 
fishery products and their monthly employment figures. NOAA also 
collects monthly information on the production of fish meal and oil. 
The information gathered is used by NOAA in the economic and social 
analyses developed when proposing and evaluating fishery management 
actions. Revision: a one-time survey will be added to the annual 
report, also to include processors not reporting under OMB Control No. 
0648-0018. The objective of the survey is to collect information on 
seafood plant characteristics, plant ownership, operating costs, 
capital costs, labor and revenue related to the processing of marine 
fish species. The information collected in this survey will be used to 
provide information on potential impacts of management decisions on the 
fishing industry. In general, analysis of cost and revenue information 
for the seafood processing plant and other activities of the plant 
allow analysts to estimate the economic contributions and impacts of 
marine fish processing to each coastal state and nationwide.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: Monthly, annually and one time.
    Respondent's Obligation: Annual report and add-on survey, 
voluntary; monthly report, mandatory.
    This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov. 
Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections 
currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.
