(NMFS)plans to collect data to increase the agency's understanding of the fishing patterns, preferences, and expenditures of anglers who fish in the rivers of California's Central Valley. NMFS has engaged in major habitat restoration in the Central Valley to promote recovery of three ESA-listed salmonids (Sacramento River winter Chinook, Central Valley spring Chinook, Central Valley steelhead).

Information to be collected pertains to anglers' recreational fishing patterns, expenditures and demographics, and factors affecting trip frequency and location (e.g., travel distance, amenities, landscape features as well as quality of fishing). The data collected will provide NMFS, as well as state agency partners such as the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with information useful for understanding the economic importance of Central Valley fisheries and potential recreational benefits associated with salmonid habitat restoration. *Affected Public:* Individuals or households. *Frequency:* One time. *Respondent's Obligation:* Voluntary.
