    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: Atlantic Highly Migratory Species Voluntary Release Reports.
    OMB Control Number: 0648-0628.
    Form Number(s): NA.
    Type of Request: Regular submission (extension of a current 
information collection).
    Number of Respondents: 13.
    Average Hours per Response: 5 minutes.

    Needs and Uses: This request is for an extension of a currently 
approved information collection.
    Under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act 
(MSFMCA, 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.) the National Marine Fisheries Service 
(NMFS) is to ensure that conservation and management measures promote, 
to the extent practicable, implementation of scientific research 
programs that include the tagging and releasing of Atlantic highly 
migratory species (HMS). The currently approved information collection 
allows the public to submit volunteered geographic and biological 
information relating to HMS releases in order to populate an 
interactive Web site mapping tool. This Web page attracts visitors who 
are interested in Atlantic HMS and contains information and links to 
promote HMS tagging programs that the general public can support or 
become involved with. All submissions are voluntary. Information is 
used to raise awareness for releasing Atlantic HMS and HMS tagging 
programs, and is not used as representative results.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households; business or other for-
profit organizations.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    This information collection request may be viewed at reginfo.gov.

collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
