    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:
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0228.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved

    Number of Respondents: 1.

    Regulations at 50 CFR part 300, subpart J, govern U.S. fishing in 
the Economic Zone of the Russian Federation. Russian authorities may 
permit U.S. fishermen to fish for allocations of surplus stocks in the 
Russian Economic Zone. Permit application information is sent to the 
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) for transmission to Russia. If 
Russian authorities issue a permit, the vessel owner or operator must 
submit a permit abstract report to NMFS, and also report 24 hours 
before leaving the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) for the Russian 
Economic Zone and 24 hours before re-entering the U.S. EEZ after being 
in the Russian Economic Zone.
    The permit application information is used by Russian authorities 
to determine whether to issue a permit. NMFS uses the other information 
to help ensure compliance with Russian and U.S. fishery management 
regulations.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: 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.
