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: Washington Steelhead Anglers Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-xxxx.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (request for a new information 
collection).
    Number of Respondents: 1,652.
    Average Hours per Response: Screening survey, 5 minutes; non-angler 
survey, 10 minutes; angler survey, 25 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 444.
    Needs and Uses: The Northwest Fisheries Science Center and 
Southwest Fisheries Science Center are undertaking an economics 
research project to assess the preferences of

[[Page 21278]]

recreational steelhead anglers for trip attributes including 
opportunities for catching wild and hatchery steelhead. The Economic 
Survey of Recreational Steelhead Fishermen (ESRSF) will yield 
information on angling preferences that will inform management of 
recreational steelhead resources and steelhead hatchery operations in 
The Pacific Northwest. More specifically, the ESRSF will collect data 
needed to (1) assess the socioeconomic characteristics of recreational 
anglers; (2) assess the economic value of steelhead recreational 
fishing trips through statistical estimation of models; and (3) assess 
the change in these values associated with possible changes in 
recreational steelhead angling opportunities, including catch rates of 
wild and hatchery fish, site attributes, and travel costs.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Once every five years.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    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.

    Dated: May 3, 2018.
