    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: 0648-0314.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved 
information collection).
    Number of Respondents: 146.
    Average Hours per Response: 1 hour to designate a principal state 
fishery official(s) or for a request to reinstate authority; 80 hours 
for a nomination for a Council appointment; 16 hours for background

    Needs and Uses: This request is for an extension of a currently

    The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act 
(Magnuson-Stevens Act), as amended in 1996, provides for the nomination 
for members of Fishery Management Councils by state governors and 
Indian treaty tribes, for the designation of a principal state fishery 
official who will perform duties under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, and 
for a request by a state for reinstatement of state authority over a 
managed fishery. Nominees for council membership must provide the 
governor or tribe with background documentation, which is then 
submitted to NOAA with the nomination. The information submitted with 
these actions will be used to ensure that the requirements of the 
Magnuson-Stevens Act are being met.
    Affected Public: State, local and tribal governments.
