Fisheries off West Coast States; Highly Migratory Fisheries; 
California Swordfish Drift Gillnet Fishery; Vessel Monitoring System 
Requirements

AGENCY: National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), National Oceanic and 
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Commerce.

ACTION: Final rule; effectiveness of collection-of-information 
requirements.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: NMFS announces approval by the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) of collection-of-information requirements contained in 
regulations pertaining to the U.S. West Coast drift gillnet (DGN) 
fishery in a final rule that published on February 26, 2015, pursuant 
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 under OMB control number 0648-
0498. The intent of this final rule is to publish the OMB control 
number for the collection-of-information requirements associated with 
the vessel monitoring system (VMS) regulations and to inform the public 
of their effectiveness.

DATES: This final rule is effective July 9, 2015. Amendments to 
paragraphs (l), (o), and (p) of Sec.  660.705 and paragraphs (f)(2) 
through (g)(5) of Sec.  660.713 published at 80 FR 10392 (February 26, 
2015) are effective on July 9, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Written comments regarding burden-hour estimates or other 
aspects of the collection-of-information requirements contained in this 
final rule may be submitted to the Regional Administrator, NMFS, West 
Coast Regional Office, 7600 Sand Point Way, NE., Bldg. 1, Seattle, WA. 
98115-0070, or [email protected], and by email to 
[email protected], or fax to (202) 395-7285.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amber Rhodes, NMFS, (562) 980-3231, or 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DGN fishery is managed under the Fishery 
Management Plan for U.S. West Coast Fisheries for Highly Migratory 
Species, which was prepared by the Pacific Fishery Management Council 
and is

[[Page 32466]]

implemented under the authority of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery 
Conservation and Management Act (MSA), 16 U.S.C. 1801, et seq., by 
regulations at 50 CFR part 660.

Background

    A final rule to add regulations at 50 CFR part 660, subpart K, to 
require use of a NMFS-approved VMS and to institute a 48-hour pre-trip 
call-in notification requirement for DGN vessel owners and operators, 
was published in the Federal Register on February 26, 2015 (80 FR 
10392). The requirements of that final rule, other than the collection-
of-information requirements associated with VMS requirements, were 
effective on March 30, 2015. Because OMB approval of the collection-of-
information requirements had not been received by the date that the 
final rule was published, the effective date of the VMS requirements 
was delayed.
    OMB approved the collection-of-information requirements contained 
in the final rule on May 5, 2015. Accordingly, this final rule makes 
effective the collection-of-information requirements at Sec.  660.705 
and Sec.  660.713, which were amended in the February 26, 2015, final 
rule.

Classification

    This final rule has been determined to be not significant for 
purposes of Executive Order 12866.
    This final rule contains a collection-of-information requirements 
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) under OMB Control Number 
0648-0498. The public reporting burden for compliance with the these 
requirements is estimated to include a one-time, 4-hour response time 
for installing a VMS unit and a 1-hour response time annually to 
maintain and repair a unit. Activation and exemption reports are 
estimated to average 5 minutes per response, including time to review 
instructions for, and prepare and submit the reports.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of the law, no person is 
required to respond to, and no person shall be subject to penalty for 
failure to comply with, a collection-of-information subject to the 
requirements of the PRA, unless that collection-of-information displays 
a currently valid OMB control number.
