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: Application for Commercial Fisheries Authorization Under 
Section 118 of the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0293.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular (extension of a currently approved 
information collection).
    Number of Respondents: 600.
    Average Hours per Response: 15 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 150.
    Needs and Uses: This request is for extension of a currently 
approved information collection.
    The Marine Mammal Protection Act requires any commercial fisherman 
operating in Category I and II fisheries to register for a certificate 
of authorization that will allow the fisherman to take marine mammals 
incidental to commercial fishing operations. Category I and II 
fisheries are those identified by NOAA as having either frequent or 
occasional takings of marine mammals. All states have integrated the 
National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) registration process into the 
existing state fishery registration process and vessel owners do not 
need to file a separate federal registration. If applicable, vessel 
owners will be notified of this simplified registration process when 
they apply for their state or Federal permit or license.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations; 
Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Annually.
    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 OIRA_Submission@omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395-5806.
