    The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking public comments on the information collection related to the Vessel Monitoring System requirement in the Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery. This system tracks commercial fishing vessels to enforce fishing regulations and protect marine resources. Comments are invited to assess the necessity, accuracy, and potential burden of these requirements on the public. The feedback will help refine the process and potentially reduce the reporting burden for the public.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is asking people to share their thoughts about a new rule that uses special equipment on fishing boats to keep an eye on them. They want to make sure the rule isn't too hard for people to follow and that it doesn't cause too much work or cost too much money.

    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Foreign Agricultural Service of the USDA has announced its intent to extend the approval for the information collection related to the USDA's Emerging Markets Program, as per the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. Comments on this proposal are welcomed until April 19, 2021, and can be submitted through various methods, including email and the Federal eRulemaking Portal. The program collects data to evaluate grant applications for activities in foreign countries and requires recipients to submit reports to ensure compliance and achieve objectives. The total annual reporting burden is estimated at 1,600 hours.

    Simple Explanation

    The USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service wants to continue collecting information for a program that helps with projects in other countries, and they're asking for people to share their thoughts on it. They have to do this because of a law that checks if collecting this information is necessary, but some important details like how much money is involved aren't clear, and the language is a bit confusing for some people.
