This request is for the revision of an existing information collection. Reporting injury and /or mortalities of marine mammals is mandated under Section 118 of the Marine Mammal Protection Act. This information is required to determine the impacts of commercial fishing on marine mammal populations. This information is also used to categorize commercial fisheries into Category I, II or III. Participants in the first two categories have to be authorized to take marine mammals, while those in Category III are exempt from that requirements. All categories must report injuries or mortalities on the NMFS Marine Mammal Authorization Program marine mammal mortality/injury form. Revision to the current MMAP M/I form (0648-0292) add fields to collect information on if a deterrent device was used and if a marine mammal was incidentally killed or injured during deterrence use. The proposed rule 0648-BG55 would add a new information collection (IC) that will be used by recreational fishermen and private and public property owners to report marine mammal mortalities and injuries incidental to deterring marine mammals. The title for 0648-0292 will be revised to “Reporting Requirements Under Sections 101and 118 of the Marine Mammal Protection Act,” due to the addition of a new IC pursuant to proposed rule 0648-BG55.
