the United States and forelgn catches In the U.S.
Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). This annual report
provides timely answers to frequently asked
questions for the previous year.

SOURCES OF DATA

Information In thls report came from many
sources. Fleld offices of the National Marine
Fisherles Service (NMFS), In cooperation with various
States, collected and compiled data on US.
commercial landings and _ processed fishery
products. The NMFS fleld offices complled data on
the forelgn catch from reports submitted by
designated foreign officials. The NMFS Fisheries
Statistics Division In Silver Spring, MD, managed the
collection and compilation of recreational statistics,
and tabulated and prepared all data for
publication. Sources of other data appearing In this
publication are: U.S. Bureau of the Census, U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S.
Customs Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S.

Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (Rome),
and the countries fishing In the U.S, EEZ.

PRELIMINARY AND FINAL DATA

Data on U.S. commercial and recreational
landings, foreign catches, employment, prices, and
production of processed products are preliminary
for 1989. Final data will be published in Fishery
Statistics of the United States and other NMFS
Current Fishery Statistics publications.

DEFINITIONS - (See Glossary)

As In past Issues of this publication, the units of
quantity and value are defined as follows: U.S.
landings and foreign catch are shown In round
weight (mollusk shells excluded), unless otherwise
noted; quantities shown for U.S. Imports and exports
are In product weight, as reported by the US.
Bureau of the Census, unless otherwise noted; the
value of the U.S. domestic commercial catch Is
exvessel; the value for U.S. Imports Is generally the
market value In the forelgn (exporting) country and,
therefore, excludes U.S. Import duties, freight
charges from the forelgn country to the United
States, and Insurance; the value for exports Is
generally the value at the U.S. port of export, based
on the selling price, Including Inland freight,
insurance, and other charges. Countrles and
territories shown In the U.S. forelgn trade section are
established for statistical purposes In the Tariff
Schedules of the United States Annotated (larlff
Commission) and reported by the U.S. Bureau of the
Census.

tons) valued at $3.2 billlon In 1989--an Increase of
1.3 bllllon pounds (576,300 metric tons) In quantity,
but a decrease of $281.8 milllon In value compared
with 1988. Landings of major finfish species such as
Atlantic and Pacific cod, Alaska pollock, and
salmon Increased. The 1989 average exvessel price
per pound paid to fishermen was 38 cents
compared to the 49 cents they received In 1988.
rInfish accounted for 84 percent of total landings,
but only 53 percent of the total value of finflsh and
shellfish.

Commercial landings by U.S. fishermen at
ports outside the 50 states or transferred In the U.S.
Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) onto forelgn vessels
(Joint ventures) were an additional 2.2 billlon pounds
(994,000 metric tons) valued at $326.7 milllon. This
was d 42 percent, or 1.6 billlon pound (718,000
metric tons), decrease In quantity and a $163.1
millon (33 percent) decrease In value compared
with 1988. Most of these landings consisted of tuna
landed at canneries In Puerto Rico, American
Samoa and other foreign ports. Joint venture
catches decreased significantly (see below).

Edible fish and shellfish landings in the 50
states were 6.2 billion pounds (2.8 milllon metric
tons) In 1989-an increase of 1.6 billion pounds

trips. The estimated number of U.S. marine
recreational fishermen has been relatively stable
over the last few years at 17 million.

. Joint venture
catches by U.S. fishermen unloaded onto foreign
vessels were 771,000 metric tons (1.7 billion pounds)
valued at $112.2 million. This was a 47 percent

DATA COLLECTION. While data on commercial
fisheries have been collected for many years,
detailed _ statistical Information on marine
recreational fishing Is also required to support a
varlety of fishery management and development
purposes. These include the objectives of the
Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management
Act, Public Law 94-265, as amended. However, the
lack of a continuous or systematic collection of
marine recreational fishery data had prevented the
accomplishment of these goals. Therefore, NMFS
began a new comprehensive Marine Recreational
Fishery Statistical Survey (MRFSS) In 1979. Surveys
have been conducted in the following areas and
years:

Atlantic and Gulf, 1979 through 1989
Pacific, mid-1979 through 1989
Western Pacific, 1979 through 1981
Caribbean, 1979, 1981

Preliminary estimates of catch and trips from the
MRFSS for the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts for
1989 are presented In the following tables,
Summary graphs for 1980-1989 catch and trips are
also shown. The survey Is belng conducted in 1990
along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

These surveys consist of an Intercept survey
of fishermen In the field and an Independent
telephone survey of households. Each component
survey provides certain information that Is combined
to produce estimates of recreational catch, fishing
effort and participation. Estimates are generated
by subregion or state, species, mode and area of
fishing. In addition, Information on catch rates and
fish lengths and weights Is obtained.

The MRFSS Is only one of several NMFS
efforts to obtain data on recreational fisheries.
Specialized surveys on particular fisheries or to
obtain socio-economic data are also conducted by
NMFS.

DATA TABLES. The MRFSS catch data show the total
number of fish caught for twenty frequently caught
species groups in each survey area. Total number
caught Includes those fish brought ashore In whole

U.S. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHERIES

form which were available for Identification,
welghing, and measuring as well as those not
available for Identification. This latter category
includes those fish used for balt, discarded, filleted
or released alive. Each fisherles group may contain
one or more species, genera, or familles.

Several tables show the distribution of total
catch by subregion, fishing area and mode. The
fishing areas are: ocean 3 miles or less from land,
ocean more than 3 miles from land, and Inland
(sounds, river, bays). However, ocean data for the
Gulf coast of Florida are reported as 10 miles or less
from land and more than 10 miles from land.

The fishing modes are: shore (man-made
structures and beach/bank from previous surveys),
party/charter boat, and private/rental boat.
However, In 1989 partyboats were not sampled by
the MRFSS In the South Atlantic and Gulf subregions,
so party/charter estimates Include only charterboats
In these areas,

The fishing trip tables Indicate the estimated
number of trips by coastal residents (generally
residing within 25 miles of the coast), non-coastal
residents of the subregion bordering saltwater, and
non-residents. | They also Include the estimated
number of trips by fishing mode.

The 1989 survey did not Include Texas or the
January and February period for South Carolina and
the Atlantic coast states north of North Carolina.
Pacific coast salmon fishing trips and catches were
not Included as a result of a cooperative
arrangement with the Pacific coast states. These
states had ongoing salmon data collection efforts
which estimated a Pacific coast total salmon catch
of approximately 763,300 fish In 1989. The data
presented below will be finalized In separate marine
recreational fishery reports to be published later this
year.

PRELIMINARY 1989 MRESS DATA. The U.S. marine
recreational finfish catch In 1989 (excluding Alaska,
Hawail, and Pacific coast salmon) was an estimated
289.2 million fish. These fish welghed approximately
469.2 millon pounds and were taken on an
estimated 57.9 milllon fishing trips. The estimated
number of U.S. marine recreational fishermen has
been relatively stable over the last few years at 17
million.

U.S. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHERIES -

The Atlantic and Gulf coasts accounted for
approximately 86 percent of the total U.S. marine
recreational finfish catch by number. — Elghty-four
percent of the estimated U.S. trips were made on
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

Approximately 17 percent of the total U.S.
catch by number was made in the Exclusive
Economic Zone (EEZ), the principal area of NMFS
management authority. However, for some species
(e.g., red snapper) over 80 percent of the catch
was made in the EEZ.

The private/rental boat mode accounted
for 61 percent of the total U.S. marine recreational
finfish catch in number. Shore mode catches were
25 percent of the total and panry/charter catches
(excluding South Atlantic and Gulf partyboats) were
14 percent of the total.

Atlantic and Gulf. In terms of number of fish,
bluefish was the most frequently caught species on
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts In 1989. Other
frequently caught species In 1989 were spotted
seatrout, spot and black sea bass. Top-ranked
species In each subregion in 1989 were scup in the
North Atlantic, bluefish in the Mid-Atlantic, spot in
the South Atlantic, and spotted seatrout In the Gulf
of Mexico. The Gulf (40 percent) and Mid-Atlantic
(30 percent) subregions accounted for the highest
numbers of Atlantic and Gulf coast fishes.

The Inland, ocean 3 miles or less from shore,
and ocean 10 miles or less from shore areas
accounted for approximately 83 percent of the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts catch In number. The
remaining 17 percent of the catch In number was
from the EEZ.

Sixty-four percent of the Atlantic and Gulf
coast catch was taken in the private/rental boat
mode in 1989. However, other modes were

Important for particular species such as king
mackerel from the charter boat mode and
kingfishes from the shore mode.

Coastal residents accounted for 73 percent of
the Atlantic and Gulf trips made In 1989. Non-
residents accounted for an additional 23 percent of
the trips. Total trips in the South Atlantic exceeded
all other subregions. This distribution of trips was
similar to previous years.

Pacific. The catch In number of Paclflc mackerel
was the highest of any species on the Pacific coast
in 1989. Top-ranked species groups In each
subregion were Pacific mackerel In Southem
California, rockfishes in Northern California, and surf
smelt In Oregon and Washington. Southern
California accounted for 56 percent of the Pacific
coast catch in number.

The ocean 3 miles or less from shore area had
the highest catch in number (57 percent) on the
Pacific coast in 1989. The Pacific coast portion of
the catch in the ocean more than 3 miles from
shore (13 percent) was similar to the 17 percent for
the Atlantic and Gulf coasts EEZ.

The overall catch among fishing modes was
more evenly distributed on the Pacific coast than
on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. Percentage
catches In number of fish were 44 percent for
private/rental boats, 33 percent for shore, and 23
percent for party/charter boats.

The percentage of trips by coastal residents (90
percent) was higher on the Pacific coast than the
Atlantic and Gulf coasts (73 percent). Forty-nine
percent of the Pacific coast trips In 1989 were in
the Southern California subregion. Considering that
an additional 26 percent of the tips were made In
the Northern California subregion, 75 percent of the
non-salmon Pacific coast trips In 1989 were made In
California.

(1) incwadss U.S.-flag vessel landings at foreign ports, transfer of catches onto foreign
vessels within the U.S. EEZ (joint ventures), and the weight of mollusk shells. (2) Includes
diadromous fishes including salmon and other anadromous fishes and catadromous fishes such

as eels.

Note:--There are 2,204.6 pounds in a metric ton. Prior to 1970, the world commercial catch of
whales and seals is excluded. For the years 1970-1988, data for marine mammals and aquatic
plants are excluded. There is a revision in the total world commercial catch back to 1970 as
published in FAO Yearbook of Fishery Statistics, Vol. 48 and 50. However, prior to 1974,
data on freshwater and marine catches were not revised. Therefore, for the years 1970 to 1973,
data will not add to the grand total.

Note:--Data on imports and exports cover the international trade of 176 countries or areas. The
total value of exports is consistently less than the total value of imports, probably because
charges for insurance, freight, and similar expenses were included in the import value but not in
in the export value. The seven fishery commodity groups covered by this table are: 1. Fish, fresh,
chilled or frozen; 2. Fish, dried, salted, or smoked; 3. Crustaceans and mollusks, fresh,
dried, salted,, etc.; 4. Fish products and preparations, whether or not in airtight containers;
5. Crustacean and mollusk products and preparations, whether or not in airtight containers; and

6. Oils and fats, crude or refined, of aquatic animal origin; and 7. Meals solubles, and similar
animal foodstuffs of aquatic animal origin.

(1) The 1989 per capita consumption should not be directly compared to per capita consumption

in the years 1986-88 because calculation methodology was modified in 1989 to reflect surimi
production. Surimi was domestically produced during the past three years, but data were unavail-
able for use in per capita consumption calculation. For 1989 there is an estimate available for
surimi production.

(3) Fresh and frozen fish consumption from 1910 to 1928 is estimated. Beginning in 1973, data
include consumption of artificially cultivated catfish. Domestic landings used in calculating
consumption are preliminary after 1977.

(4) Canned fish consumption for 1911 to 1920 is estimated. Beginning in 1921, it is based on
production reports, packer stocks, and foreign trade statistics for individual years.

PER CAPITA ap

U.S. USE

Per capita use of commercial fish and shellfish is based on the supply of fishery products,
both edible and nonedible (industrial), on a round weight equivalent basis, without considering
beginning or ending stocks, defense purchases, or exports (see page 61).

Per capita use figures are not comparable with per capita consumption data (see page 72). Per
capita consumption figures represent edible (for human use) meat weight consumption rather than
round weight consumption. In addition, per capita consumption includes allowances for beginning
and ending stocks and exports, whereas the use does not include such allowances.

Per capita use is derived by using total population including U.S. Armed Forces overseas.
The per capita consumption is derived by using civilian resident population.

as PRICES

In 1989 the base year for computing the
exvessel price Index has been changed to 1982 to
conform with current government — standards.
Indexes have been recalculated for 1983-89.

In the table that follows, the exvessel price
for any glven year was obtained by dividing total
value by total quantity by species as reported in
the distance from shore tables on pages 6-9. The
Index for each specles or group was obtained by
multiplying the current annual price by the total

= Index
1982 Annual Value

Each Index number calculated for years (other
than the base year of 1982) measures price
changes from the 1982 reference perlod when the
Index equaled 100. A species of fish that sold for
$0.75 a pound In 1986 and a $1.00 a pound In 1982

would have an Index of 75 In 1986. In 1989, If the
price of the same species Increased to $1.05, the
index In 1989 would be 105.

quantity caught In 1982 (the base year). That
number was then divided by the 1982 value to
obtain the final Index:

86 THE MAGNUSON FISHERY CONSERVATION
AND MANAGEMENT ACT

The Magnuson Fishery Conservation and
Management Act (MFCMA), Public Law 94-265 as
amended (Magnuson Act), provides for the
conservation and management of all fishery
resources within the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone
(EEZ) except highly migratory species of tuna. It
also provides for fishery management authority over
continental shelf resources and anadromous specles
beyond the EEZ, except when they are found within
a forelgn nation’s territorial sea or fishery
conservation zone (or equivalent), to the extent that
such sea or zone Is recognized by the United States.

The EEZ extends from the seaward boundary
of each of the coastal States (generally 3 nautical
miles from shore for all but two States) to 200
nautical miles from shore. The seaward boundaries
of Texas, Puerto Rico, and the Gulf coast of Florida
are 3 marine leagues (9 nautical miles).

GOVERNING INTERNATIONAL FISHERY AGREEMENTS

Under the Magnuson Act, the US.
Department of State, with cooperation from the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce,
negotiates Governing International Fishery
Agreements (GIFAs) with foreign countries wishing to
fish within the EEZ. After a GIFA Is signed, It Is
transmitted by the President to the Congress for
review.

FOREIGN FISHING PERMITS

Vessels of forelgn nations which have GIFAs
with the United States may fish in the EEZ for species
managed under the Magnuson Act after receiving
an allocation of that species and a valid fishing
permit. After a GIFA Is In force, a forelgn nation
must submit a permit application to the US.
Department of State for each vessel to fish In the
EEZ. Permit applications must also be made for
forelgn vessels to receive U.S. harvested fish In the
EEZ, and to conduct any other operation In the EEZ
In support of the catching, taking, or harvesting of
fish. The U.S. Department of State provides coples
of the applications to the Congress, the U.S. Coast
Guard, the appropriate Regional Fishery
Management Councils, and to the Assistant
Administrator for Fisherles of the National Marine
Fisherles Service (NMFS) with Its recommendations.
The NMFS also receives recommendations from the
Regional Fishery Management Councils and the U.S.
Coast Guard, as well as the general public.

The Assistant Administrator for Fisheries
reviews recommendations bearing on approval of
each application and, after consulting with the U.S.
Department of State and the U.S. Coast Guard,

may approve an application In whole or In part.
Any conditions and restrictions on the approval of
an application are sent to the forelgn nation
through the U.S. Department of State, and must be
accepted by the nation before a permit Is Issued.

FEES

Forelgn natlons engaged in fisherles subject to
U.S. Jurisdiction are charged permit fees, poundage
fees, a forelgn fee surcharge, and an observer fee.
An Incremental fee may also be charged, which Is
a percentage of the poundage fee from any
country found not to be cooperating In the
conservation and development of U.S. fishery
resources.

The permit fees In 1989 recovered costs of
issuing permits, based upon da_— standard
administrative charge of $354 for each forelgn
permit application.

Poundage fees are charged for the fish
harvested by forelgn vessels. Poundage fees vary In
relation to the exvessel values of the species
harvested by a nation’s vessels. Poundage fees are
not currently charged for U.S. harvested fish
received by foreign vessels. Collections from 1989
poundage fees were expected to continue to
decrease as foreign fishing falls to very low levels.

The surcharge Is to capitalize a fund to
compensate U.S. fishermen operating In the EEZ
whose vessels or gear are lost or damaged
because of conflicts with forelgn vessels. The
surcharge on poundage and permit fees was
waived In 1989 because the fund was fully
capitalized.

The observer fee covers U.S. costs Including
salary, per diem, transportation, and overhead for
U.S. observers on board foreign vessels. The fee Is
computed on the basis of actual observer trips.

No Incremental fees were paid In 1989,

FOREIGN ALLOCATIONS

The total allowable level of forelgn fishing
(TALFF), If any. for any fishery subject to the
exclusive fishery management authority of the
United States Is that portion of the optimum yield
(OY) of such fishery that will not be harvested by
vessels of the United States.

Each assessment of OY and each assessment
of the anticipated U.S. harvest Is reviewed during
the fishing season. Adjustments to TALFFs are

THE MAGNUSON FISHERY CONSERVATION 8%
AND MANAGEMENT ACT

based on updated Information relating to status of
stocks, estimated and actual performance of
domestic and forelgn fleets. and other relevant
factors.

EMPs and PMPs

Under the Magnuson Act, eight Regional
Fishery Management Councils are charged with
Preparing Fishery Management Pians (FMPs) for the
fisherles needing management within thelr areas of
authority. After the Councils develop FMPs which
cover domestic and forelgn fishing efforts, the FMPs
are submitted to the Secretary of Commerce for
approval and Implementation. The Department,
through NMFS agents and the U.S. Coast Guard, Is
responsible for enforcing the law and regulations.

The Secretary of Commerce is_ also
empowered to prepare plans. Where no FMP exists,
Preliminary Fishery Management Plans (PMPs), which
only cover foreign fishing efforts, are prepared by
the Secretary for each fishery for which a forelgn
nation requests a pemilt. The Secretary ls also
empowered to produce an FMP for any fishery that
a Council has not duly produced. In this latter
case, the Secretary's FMP covers domestic and
foreign fishing.

As of December 31, 1989, sk Preliminary
Fishery Management Plans (PMPs) were In effect.

being Implemented.

Hishery Management Plans (FMPs)

Under section 304 of the Magnuson Act, all
Council prepared FMPs must be reviewed by the
Secretary of Commerce. After FMPs have been
approved under section 304 of the Magnuson Act,
they are Implemented by federal regulations, under
section 305 of the Act. During 1989, one new FMP

was adopted by a Council, submitted for Secretaral
review and approved. As of December 31. 1989,
there are 30 fishery management plans In place.
The FMPs are listed below, and those marked with
an asterisk (°) were approved and Implemented
during 1989. Many FMPs are amended by the
Council and submitted for approval under the same
Secretarial review process as new FMPs. Many of
the FMPs Isted have been amended since initial
Implementation. Those marked with a double
asterisk (°°) were amended In 1989.

investigation, protection, and conservation of the
fishery resources of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean.
In 1975, there were 18 member nations. The United
States withdrew from ICNAF on December 31, 1976,
because continued adherence to the convention

are landed, such as sea scallops. Data for alll
mollusks are published on a meat-weight basis.

MAGNUSON __ FISHERY CONSERVATION AND

Tne Magnuson Act provides a national program for
the conservation and management of fisheries to
allow for an optimum yleld (OY) on a continuing
basls and to realize the full potential of the Nation’s
fishery resources. If established the U.S. Exclusive
Economics Zone (EEZ) (formerly the FCZ - Fishery
Conservation Zone) and a means to control foreign
and certain domestic fisherles through PMPs and
FMPs. Within the U.S. EEZ, the United States has
exclusive management authority over fish (meaning
finfish, mollusks, crustaceans, and all other forms of
marine animal and plant life other than marine
mammals, birds, and highly migratory species of
tuna). The Magnuson Act provides further exclusive
management authority beyond the U.S. EEZ for alll
continental shelf fishery resources and. alll
anadromous species throughout the migratory
range of each such species, except during the time
they are found within any forelgn nation’s territorial
sea or fishery conservation zone (or the equivalent),
to the extent that such a sea or zone Is recognized
by the United States.

b Fishing for
pleasure, amusement, relaxation, or home
consumption. If part or all of the catch Is sold, the
monetary returns constitute an Insignificant part of
the person’s Income.

MARINE RECREATIONAL CATCH. Quantities of finfish,
shellfish and other living aquatic organisms caught,
but not necessarily brought ashore, by marine
recreational fisherman.

MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHERMEN. Those people
who fish In marine waters primarily for recreational
purposes, Thelr catch Is primarily for home
consumption, although occasionally a part or all of
thelr catch may be sold and enter commercial
channels.

MSY from a
fishery Is the largest annual catch or yleld In terms
of welght of fish caught by both commercial and
recreational fishermen that can be taken
continuously from a_ stock under existing
environmental conditions. A determination of MSY,

GLOSSARY

which should be an estimate based upon the best
scientific Information avallable, Is a_blological
measure necessary In the development of optimum
yield.

METRIC TONS. A measure of weight equal to 1,000
kilograms, 0.984 long tons, 1.1023 short tons, or
2,204.6 pounds.

. A motor-driven commercial fishing
craft having a capacity of less than 5 net tons, or
not officially documented by the Coast Guard. See
“boat, other.’

(NAFO). This convention, which entered Into force
January 1, 1979, replaces ICNAF. NAFO provides a
forum for continued multilateral sclentific research
and investigation of fishery resources that occur
beyond the limits of coastal nations’ fishery
Jurisdiction In the northwest Ailantic, and will ensure
consistency between NAFO management measures
In this area and those adopted by the coastal
nations within the limits of their fishery Jurisdiction.

OPTIMUM YIELD (OY). In the MFCMA (Magnuson
Act), OY with respect to the yield from a fishery, Is
the amount of fish that (1) will provide the greatest
overall benefit to the United States, with particular
reference to food production and recreational
opportunities; and (2) Is prescribed as such on the
basis of maximum susfalnable yleld from such
fishery, as modified by any relevant ecological,
economic, or social factors.

PACKAGED FISH. A term used In NMFS publications
prior to 1972 to designate fresh or frozen raw fish
fillets and steaks.

PART-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An Individual
who recelves less than 50 percent of thelr annual
Income from commerclal fishing activities.

PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION. Consumption of edible
fishery products In the United States divided by the
total civillan population. In calculating annual per
caplia consumption, estimates of the civilian
resident population of the United States on July 1 of
each year are used. These estimates are taken
from current population reports, serles P-25,
published by the U.S. Bureau of the Census.

PER CAPITA USE. The use of all fishery products,
both edible and nonedible, In the United States
divided by the total population of the United States.

GLOSSARY Ve

The Secretary of Commerce prepares a PMP

whenever a foreign nation with which the United
States has made a Governing Intemational Fishery
Agreement (GIFA) submits an application to fish In a
fishery not managed by an FMP. A PMP. Is

the final consumer by food stores and other retall
outlets.

ROUND (LIVE) WEIGHT. The weight of fish, shellfish,
or other aquatic plants and animals as taken from

landings Include only the welght of the meats.

Minced fish meat (usually Alaska pollock)
which has been washed to remove fat and undesir-
able matters (such as blood, pigments, and odorous
substances), and mixed with cryoprotectants, such
as sugar and/or sorbitol, for a good frozen shelf life.

(ALFF). The TALFF, If any, with respect to any
fishery subject to the exclusive fishery management
authority of the United States, is that portion of the
optimum yleld of such fishery which will not be
harvested by vessels of the United States, as

U.S, EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE (EEZ). The MFCMA
(Magnuson Act) defines this zone as contiguous to
the territorial sea of the United States and extending

baseline from which the ferriforlal sea Is measured.
This was formerly referred to as the FCZ (Fishery
Conservation Zone).

U.S.-FLAG VESSEL LANDINGS. Includes landings by
all U.S. fishing vessels regardless of where landed as
opposed to landings at ports In the 50 United
States. These Include landings at forelgn ports, U.S.

Joint venture agreements. U.S. law prohibits vessels
constructed or registered In forelgn countrles to
land fish catches at U.S. ports.

U.S, TERRITORIAL SEA. A zone extending 3 nautical
miles from shore for all states except Texas and the
Gulf Coast of Florida where the seaward boundary
ls 3 marine leagues (9 nautical miles).

products, both edible and nonedible, on a round-
welght basis without considering beginning or
ending stocks, exports, military purchases, or
shipments to U.S. territories.

FISHERY PRODUCTS ARE
VOLUNTARILY INSPECTED. Beef

other perishable food items, are
federally Inspected at various
stages of processing to ensure
buyers that the product |s safe,
wholesome, and acceptable.
Fishery products have no similar
mandatory federal Inspection
program; however, the US.
Department of Commerce
(USDC) provides a_ voluntary
Inspection program for fishery
products. Seafood processors,
packers, brokers, and users who
are Interested In having USDC
inspect thelr products may
subscribe voluntarily to the
program. Users of the service
pay for USDC inspection which
evaluates thelr raw materials,
ensures the hygienic preparation
of products, and certifies the final
quality and condition of the
product. The USDC inspector
functions as an_ objective
observer In evaluating processing
techniques and product quality
and condition. Products packed
In plants under USDC Inspection
can camy marks for easy
consumer identification.

FEDERAL INSPECTION MARKS.
Federal inspection marks are
Official marks approved by the
Secretary of Commerce and
authorzed for use on brand
labels of fishery products. When
displayed on product labels,
these marks signify that inspectors
licensed by the USDC Inspected,
graded, and certified the
products as having met all the
requirements of Inspection
regulations, and have been
produced In accordance with
Official U.S. grade standards or
approved specifications.

WHAT DO THE INSPECTION MARKS
MEAN? The distinctive Inspection
marks are symbols that signify two
distinct but related functions in
guiding the consumer to safe,
wholesome products produced
in a sanitary environment and

packed In accordance with
uniform quality standards under
the supervision of the USDC’s
voluntary Inspection service. The
