The Central Gulf of Alaska (CGOA) Rockfish Program (RP) is a catch share program for the rockfish fisheries and other related groundfish species conducted in federal waters near Kodiak, Alaska, primarily by trawl vessels, and to a lesser extent by longline vessels. The RP is designed to enhance resource conservation and improve economic efficiency in the rockfish fisheries by establishing cooperatives that receive exclusive harvest privileges. Each year, each eligible rockfish cooperative receives an annual cooperative fishing quota, which is an amount of primary and secondary rockfish species the cooperative is able to harvest in that fishing year and an associated amount of halibut Prohibited Species Catch. This collection contains the information collection requirements for the annual rockfish cooperative quota, inter-cooperative quota transfers, and vessel check-in/check-out and termination of fishing reports

No program changes are made in this renewal. Several adjustments are made in this information collection renewal, as described below: Application for Rockfish Cooperative Fishing Quota (CQ) – • no change in the number of respondents (9) • no change in the number of responses (9) • no change in the burden hours per response (2 hrs) • no change in the total burden hours (18 hrs) • no change in total personnel cost of burden hours ($666) • an increase in miscellaneous costs from $26 to $87 to reflect adjustments made to the assumptions for the cost of photocopying and mailing application packages. Application for Rockfish Inter-Cooperative Transfer • no change in the number of respondents (9) • an increase in the number of responses per year based on updating actual average number of transfers per cooperative per year (from 27 total to 135 total) • no change in the burden hours per response (10 min) • an increase in the total personnel cost of burden hours (from 5 hrs to 23 hrs due to increase in number of responses) • an increase in the total cost of burden hours (from $185 to $851) • a decrease in miscellaneous costs from $1 to $0 because the cost of submitting these reports is estimated at zero because these services are included in internet and phone service already purchased by the cooperative for other business purposes. Vessel Check-In/Check-Out & Declaration of Termination of Fishing • no change in the number of respondents (9) • a reduction in the number of responses per year based on updating actual average number of reports per cooperative per year (from 63 total to 54 total) • no change in the burden hours per response (10 min) • a reduction in the total burden hours (11 hrs to 9 hrs) due to a decrease in number of responses) • a decrease in the total personnel cost of burden hours ($407 to $333) • a decrease in miscellaneous costs from $20 to $0 because the cost of submitting these reports is estimated at zero because these services are included in internet and phone service already purchased by the cooperative for other business purposes. Overall adjustments for the collection (information for the form 83i) • no change in the number of respondents (9) • an increase in the number of responses per year from 99 to 198 • an increase in the total burden hours from 34 to 50 • an increase in the miscellaneous costs from $47 to $87.
