    The Department of Commerce plans to submit an information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) related to permits for activities involving highly migratory species, like sharks and tuna, under U.S. federal law. These permits include scientific research, exempted fishing, and display or shark research fishery permits. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) requires data to justify issuing these permits, which help in collecting marine species for public display or research that wouldn't be allowed under normal regulations. Businesses, researchers, and government agencies are expected to submit permit applications and reports as part of this process, with the authority coming from specific U.S. statutes related to marine conservation and management. The public has an opportunity to comment on this collection request through a specified website.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to make sure people are catching and studying big fish like sharks and tuna in a safe way, and they need special permission to do it. They are asking people for their thoughts on how this should be done.
