National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration


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: Seafood Inspection and Certification Requirements.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0266.
    Form Number(s): NOAA Forms 89-800, 89-814, 89-819.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved 
information collection).
    Number of Respondents: 4,260.
    Average Hours per Response: Contract Request, 15 minutes; label 
approval, 15 minutes; Inspection Request, 30 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 19,768.
    Needs and Uses: This request is for extension of a currently 
approved information collection.
    The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) operates a voluntary 
fee-for- service seafood inspection program (Program) under the 
authorities of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946, as amended, the 
Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, and the Reorganization Plan No. 4 of 
1970. The regulations for the Program are contained in 50 CFR part 260. 
The program offers inspection grading and certification services, 
including the use of official quality grade marks which indicate that 
specific products have been Federally inspected. Those wishing to 
participate in the program must request the services and submit 
specific compliance information. In July 1992, NMFS announced new 
inspection services, which were fully based on guidelines recommended 
by the National Academy of Sciences, known as Hazard Analysis Critical 
Control Point (HACCP). The information collection requirements fall 
under Sec.  260.15 of the regulations. These guidelines required that a 
facility's quality control system have a written plan of the operation, 
identification of control points with acceptance criteria and a 
corrective action plan, as well as identified personnel responsible for 
oversight of the system.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations; not-
for-profit institutions; state, local, or tribal government.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    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.
