This annual report provides timely answers to frequently asked questions. SOURCES OF DATA Information in this report came from many sources. Field offices of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), with the generous cooperation of the coastal states, collected and compiled data on U.S. commercial landings and processed fishery products. The NMFS Fisheries Statistics Division in Silver Spring, MD, managed the collection and compilation of recre- ational statistics, in cooperation with various States and Interstate Fisheries Commissions, and tabulated and prepared all data for publication. Sources of other data appearing in this publication are: U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Customs Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the Food and Agricul- ture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. PRELIMINARY AND FINAL DATA Data on U.S. commercial landings, employment, prices, production of processed products, and recreational catches are preliminary for 2007. Final data will be published in other NMFS Current Fishery Statistics publications. The Fisheries Statistics Division of NMFS takes this opportunity to thank states, industry, and foreign nations who provided the data that made this publication pos- sible. Program leaders of the field offices were: Gregory Power, Joan Palmer and Joan Barry for the New England, Middle Atlantic, and Chesapeake; Scott Nelson, U.S. Geological Survey, Great Lakes States; David Gloeckner, Guy Davenport, and Jay Boulet for the South Atlantic and Gulf States; Trisha Culver, for Cali- fornia; David Hamm, for Hawaii and Pacific Islands; Geoff White at the Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statis- tical Program, Brad Stenberg, data extracted from PacFIN for Oregon and Washington; and Robert Ryznar and Camille Kohler of the Alaska Fisheries Information Network for Alaska. NOTES The time series of U.S. catch by species and distance from shore included in this year's "Fisheries of the U.S." is estimated by the National Marine Fisheries Service. As in past issues of this publication, the units of quantity and value are defined as follows unless otherwise noted: U.S. landings are shown in round weight (except mol- lusks which are in meat weight); quantities shown for U.S. imports and exports are in product weight, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of the Census; the value of the U.S. domestic commercial landings is exvessel; in the Review Section on important species, deflated exvessel prices are shown. The deflated value was computed using the Gross Domestic Products Implicit Price Deflator using a base year 2000; the value for U.S. imports is generally the market value in the foreign (exporting) country and, therefore, excludes U.S. import duties, freight charges and insurance from the foreign country to the United States. 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. Countries and territories shown in the U.S. foreign trade section are established for statistical purposes in the Tariff Schedules of the United States Annotated (International Trade Commission) and reported by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. SUGGESTIONS The Fisheries Statistics Division wishes to provide the kinds of data sought by users of fishery statistics, and welcomes comments or suggestions that will improve this publication.

Finfish accounted for 89 percent of the total landings, but only 51 percent of the value. The 2007 average exvessel price paid to fishermen was 44 cents compared to 42 cents in 2006. Catches of Alaska pollock, Pacific whiting and other Pacific groundfish that are processed at-sea aboard U.S. vessels in the northeastern Pacific are credited as "land- ings" to the state nearest to the area of capture. Informa- tion on landing port or percentage of catch transferred to transport ships for delivery to foreign ports is unavail- able. These at-sea processed fishery products, on a round (live) weight basis, exceeded 1 .2 million metric tons in 2007 and comprised more than 30 percent of the total domestic landings in the 50 states. Commercial landings by U.S. fishermen at ports outside the 50 states along with Internal Water Processing (IWP) agreements (see glossary) provided an additional 158.4 million pounds (71,838 metric tons) valued at $62.5 million. This was an increase of 3 percent, or 4.6 million pounds (2,076 metric tons) in quantity and $1.3 million (2 percent) in value compared with 2006. Most of these landings consisted of tuna, and swordfish landed in American Samoa and other foreign ports. Edible fish and shellfish landings in the 50 states were 7.5 billion pounds (3.4 million metric tons) in 2007 — a decrease of 376,300 thousand pounds (170 metric tons) compared with 2006. Landings for reduction and other industrial purposes were 1.8 billion pounds (801,149 metric tons) in 2007 — a decrease of 2 percent compared with 2006. The 2007 U.S. marine recreational finfish catch (including fish kept and fish released (discarded)) on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts was an estimated 468.0 million fish taken on an estimated 87.0 million fishing trips. The harvest (fish kept or released dead) was estimated at 196.0 million fish weighing 255.0 million pounds. WORLD LANDINGS In 2006, the most recent year for which data are available, world commercial fishery landings and aquaculture pro- duction were 143.6 million metric tons — an increase of 0.9 million metric tons compared with 2005. China was the leading nation with 35.9 percent of the total harvest followed by Peru and India with 4.9 percent. Indonesia was the fourth leading producer with 4.2 percent and the United States was fifth with 3.7 percent. PRICES The 2007 annual exvessel price index for edible fish increased by 9 percent, shellfish increased 9 percent and industrial increased 60 percent comparing with 2006. Exvessel price indices increased for 21 out of 32 species groups being tracked, decreased for 9 species groups, and unchanged for 2 species groups. The snow crabs price index had the largest increase (71 percent) while bluefin tuna price index showed the largest decrease (23 percent). PROCESSED PRODUCTS The estimated value of the 2007 domestic production of edible and nonedible fishery products was $8.3 billion, $261.7 million less than in 2006. The value of edible products was $7.7 billion — a decrease of $373.4 million compared with 2006. The value of industrial products was $608.4 million in 2007 — an increase of $111.7 thousand compared with 2006. FOREIGN TRADE The total import value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $28.8 billion in 2007 — an increase of $1.1 billion compared with 2006. Imports of edible fishery products (product weight) were 5.3 billion pounds valued at $13.7 billion in 2007 — a decrease of 53.8 million pounds but an increase of $340.9 million com- pared with 2006. Imports of nonedible (i.e., industrial) products were $15.1 billion — an increase of $724.2 million compared with 2006. IV Revi Total export value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $20.1 billion in 2007 — an increase of $2.3 billion compared with 2006. United States firms ex- ported 2.9 billion pounds of edible products valued at $4.0 billion — a decrease of 97.9 million pounds but an increase of $26.7 million compared with 2006. Exports of nonedible products were valued at $1 5.8 billion, $2.3 billion more than 2006. SUPPLY The U.S. supply of edible fishery products (domestic landings plus imports, round weight equivalent, minus exports) was 1 2.5 billion pounds in 2007 — an increase of 123.6 million pounds compared with 2006. The supply of industrial fishery products was 959.7 million pounds in 2007 — an increase of 53.2 million pounds compared with 2006. PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION U.S. consumption of fishery products was 16.3 pounds of edible meat per person in 2007, down 0.2 pound from the 2006 per capita consumption of 16.5 pounds. CONSUMER EXPENDITURES U.S. consumers spent an estimated $68.4 billion for fishery products in 2007. The 2007 total includes $45.8 billion in expenditures at food service establishments (restaurants, carry-outs, caterers, etc.); $22.1 billion in retail sales for home consumption; and $474.2 million for industrial fish products. By producing and marketing a variety of fishery products for domestic and foreign markets, the commercial marine fishing industry contrib- uted $34.2 billion (in value added) to the U.S. Gross National Product.

Clams, oysters and mussels are reported as meat weights (excludes shell) while all other species such as shrimp and finfishes are reported as whole (live) weights. Some clam and oyster production are reported with U.S. commercial landings. Weights and values represent the final sales of products to processors and dealers. The "Miscellaneous" includes ornamental/tropical fish, alligators, algae, aquatic plants, eels, scallops, crabs, and others. The high value and low production of "Miscellaneous" occurs because production value, but not weight, are reported for many species such as ornamental fishes.

Detailed information on marine recreational fishingis required to support a variety of fisher}' management and development purposes and is mandated by the Sustainable Fisheries Act, 1996 (PL 104-297) and the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conserva- tion and Management Reauthorization Act, 2007 (PL 109-479). In 1981, following 2 years of preliminary surveys, the NMFS began a comprehensive survey of marine recreational fisheries covering all fishing modes (private /rental boat, party/charter boat, and shore), and including estuarine and brackish water. Although the annual recreational harvest is only about 9 percent of the total U.S. harvest of finfish for states covered by this program, the fishing activities of millions of anglers are important to monitor because they are directed at relatively few species. Marine recreational fishing signifi- cantly impacts the stocks of many finfish species, and recreational catches surpass commercial landings of some species (see figure on preceding page). METHODS. On the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the US, the marine recreational fisheries statistics program consists of a coastal household telephone survey (CHTS), a telephone survey of for-hire fishing vessel operators (charter and party boats; FHS), and a field intercept survey of angler fishing trips. Additional information is also obtained from state or regional logbook programs and is used to supplement survey data to produce more robust catch and effort estimates. The CHTS collects data on the number of marine recreational fishing trips by residents of coastal counties. The intercept survey collects data on the proportion of fishing trips by residents of non-coastal counties, the species composition of catches, catch rates by species, and lengths and weights of landed fish. These data are combined to produce estimates of catch and effort. Catch estimates are separated into two categories - harvested catch and catch released alive. Harvested catch includes landed fish and catch reported as dead. Whenever possible, field interviewers identify, count, weigh, and measure landed fish that are available in whole form. Angler reports are obtained for catch released alive and for all other harvested catch, such as catch released dead, used for bait, or filleted fish. Catch estimates are stratified by subregion, state, wave (bi- monthly sampling period), species, fishing mode (pri- vate/rental boat, party/charter boat, and shore), primary area fished, and catch type. In addition, estimates of participation are produced. Texas estimates are from Texas Parks and Wildlife Department recreational survey data. On the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, California, and Washington's Puget Sound, effort for the party/charter fishing mode is now estimated through For- Hire Surveys (FHS) . These surveys differ from the CHTS because they use a telephone survey of boats as the primary method for estimating fishing effort. The weekly survey uses directories of charter boats and party/headboats as the sampling frames. These telephone surveys estimate the number of angler-trips on boats included in the sampling frames. Dockside and on-board angler-intercept sur- veys collect catch data. The total catch of any one species is calculated as the product of the adjusted estimate of total angler trips and the estimated mean catch per trip. Although the FHS produces separate estimates for charter boat and party boats on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, for-hire fishing vessels are not designated by type in California or Puget Sound. This effort methodology was initiated in 2000 on the Gulf coast, in 2001 on the Pacific coast, and in 2005 on the Atlantic coast. FHS numbers are included here for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and California but not for Puget Sound. In place of the CHTS, Oregon and Washington conduct ocean boats surveys to produce catch and effort esti- mates. Oregon's Ocean Recreational Boat Survey (ORBS) and Washington's Ocean Sampling Program (OSP) consist of a field intercept survey for effort and catch of passenger and private boats. Estimates of mean catch per boat, catch per angler, total angler trips and boat trips are produced for each port inlet or port group stratified by time period, type of boat, type of trip and water area. Catch estimates in numbers of fish and weight are produced for each species of fish. COVERAGE. In 2007, the recreational fishing statistics program conducted by the NMFS included the Atlantic coast (ME-East FL), Gulf coast (LA- West FL), Puerto Rico and Hawaii. Detailed information and access to the data are available on the Fisheries Statistics web page (www.st.nmfs.gov/stl). Care is advised when compar- ing catch estimates across an extended time series because of differences in sampling coverage through the years. In the South Atlantic and Gulf sub-regions (NC- LA) head boat catch data have not been collected since 1 985, so estimates for these sub-regions only include charter boats in the for-hire sector. Marine recreational fishing in Texas is monitored by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and has not been surveyed by the NMFS' survey program since 1985. Current year statistics are not 20 U.S. Marine Recreational Fisheries available for Texas. Prior to 1998, on the Pacific coast, ocean boat trips and salmon trips were not sampled during certain waves because they were surveyed by state natural resource agencies. Alaska conducts an annual mail survey in place of the NMFS' program. Harvest, effort and participation data are included, but not available for the current year. West Pacific U.S. territories have not been included in the national survey program since 1981. Hawaii was not surveyed between 1981 and 2002. The U.S. Caribbean was not surveyed between 1981 and 2000. The numbers reported for Washington and Oregon for 2005 & 2006 include only private boat and for-hire-fisheries. Data from other NMFS and state surveys are not included in this report. Historically, only about five percent of the annual recre- ational catch on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts is taken during Wave 1 (Jan/Feb). Costs to sample these months are very high due to low fishing activity. Therefore, in Jan/Feb of 1981 the surveys were not conducted in any region. In 1982, Jan/Feb data collection resumed on the Pacific and Gulf coasts and also on the Atlantic coast of Florida. With a few exceptions the marine recreational statistics program has not collected data in Jan/Feb on the Atlantic coast north of Florida since 1980. Time periods when the marine recreational statistics program has not been conducted: Nov/Dec (ME & NH) - 1987 to present; Mar/ Apr (ME & NH) - 1986 to present; Jan/Feb (Northern CA & OR) - 1994; Jan/Feb (Southern CA & OR) - 1995 Nov/Dec (OR) - 1994; Nov/Dec (WA shore modes) - 2003; July - Dec (OR shore modes) - 2003; All Waves (CA - WA) - 1990 to 1993, 2004 to present; All Waves (WA) - 1993 to 1994. DATA TABLES. The estimated harvests (numbers and weight of fish) for the continental U.S. and Hawaii are presented. Numbers of fish harvested and released alive are also presented for many important species groups. Estimated harvests are presented by subregion and primary fishing area: inland [sounds, rivers, bays], state territorial seas [ocean to 3 miles from shore, except for Florida's Gulf coast, where state territorial seas extend to 10 miles from shore], and Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) [ocean from the outer edge of the state territorial seas to 200 miles from shore]. The total numbers of estimated trips and participants are pre- sented by state. 2007 MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING DATA. In 2007, more than 12 million anglers made almost 87 million marine recreational fishing trips on the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts. The estimated total marine recreational catch was more than 468 million fish, of which 58 percent were released alive. The estimated total weight of harvested catch was 255 million pounds. The Atlantic coast accounted for the majority of trips (67 percent) and catch (over 60 percent). The Gulf coast accounted for 28 percent of trips, and nearly 36 percent of the catch. The Pacific coast accounted for nearly 1 percent of trips, and nearly 3 percent of the catch. Nationally, most (almost 61 percent in numbers offish) of the recreational catch came from inland waters, 30 percent from state territorial seas, and over 9 percent from the EEZ. The majority of Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific trips fished primarily in inland waters. ATLANTIC. In 2007, 8.7 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All participants, including visitors, took 58 million trips and caught a total of more than 282 million fish. About 26 percent of the trips were made in east Florida, followed by nearly 13 percent in New Jersey, 12 percent in North Carolina, almost 11 percent in New York, 8 percent in Massachusetts, 7 percent in Maryland, and more than 6 percent in Virginia. Together, South Carolina, Connecticut, and Rhode Is- land accounted for 1 0 percent of the trips, and Delaware, Maine, Georgia, and New Hampshire accounted for the remaining percentage. The most commonly caught non- bait species (in numbers of fish) were Atlantic croaker, bluefish, summer flounder, spot, and striped bass. The largest harvests by weight were striped bass, bluefish, dolphinfish, summer flounder, and Atlantic croaker. From 1998 to 2007, total annual catch of black sea bass has averaged nearly 13 million fish. Catch increased overall from 6.3 million fish (1998) to over 1 4 million fish (2007). From the total catch in 2007 (over 14 million fish), almost 84 percent were released alive. Annual bluefish catch increased overall from 9.2 million fish (1998) to nearly 24 million fish (2007). At nearly 24 million fish, 2007 bluefish catch was above the 10-year 21 U.S. Marine Recreational Fisheries mean of over 1 7 million. The species most commonly caught on Atlantic coast trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were black sea bass, summer flounder, Adanric cod, dolphinfish, and bluefish. Nearly 30 percent of the total Adantic catch came on saltwater trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and more than 60 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. GULF OF MEXICO. In 2007, almost 3.6 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All participants, including visitors, took over 24 million trips and caught 168 million fish. Almost 68 percent of the trips were made in west Florida, followed by almost 19 percent in Louisiana, almost 9 percent in Alabama, and 5 percent in Mississippi. The most commonly caught non-bait species (numbers offish) were spotted seatrout, red drum, gray snapper, sand seatrout, and Adantic croaker. The largest harvests by weight were for red drum, spotted seatrout, blue runner, sheepshead, red snapper, and king mackerel. From 1998 to 2007, total annual catch of gray snapper has averaged almost 4.5 million fish. Catch increased overall from more than 4.1 million fish (1998) to almost 5.6 million fish (2007). From the total catch in 2007 (almost 5.6 million fish), over 82 percent were released alive. Annual red drum catch has been generally stable. At over 9 million fish, 2007 red drum catch was above the 10-year mean of over 8.2 million. The species most commonly caught on Gulf of Mexico trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were red snapper, gag, red grouper, white grunt, and black sea bass. About 26 percent of the total Gulf catch came on trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and nearly 66 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. PACIFIC. In 2007, over 181,000 marine recreational fishing participants took over 730,000 trips and caught a total of 13 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were kelp bass, black rockfish, barred surfperch, white croaker, and barred sandbass. By weight, the largest harvests were albacore, black rockfish, Chinook salmon, lingcod, blue shark, and Pacific barracuda. Annual barred surfperch catch declined to a low in 2000 but has been increasing. At more than 463,000 fish, 2007 barred surfperch catch was below the 10-year mean of more than 514,000. Annual catch of black rockfish has varied between more than 680,000 fish and 1.4 million fish over the last ten years, with an average catch of more than 1 million fish per year. Of the more than 680,000 caught in 2007, almost 54,000 fish (nearly 8%) were released alive. The most commonly caught Pacific coast species in federally managed waters were California scorpionfish, Pacific sanddab, Chinook salmon, Pacific barracuda, and vermilion rockfish. About 76 percent of the total Pacific catch came from trips that fished prima- rily in the state territorial seas, and almost 1 7 percent came from trips that fished primarily in inland waters ALASKA. In 2006, 948,000 marine recreational fishing participants took nearly 1 .4 million trips and caught a total of more than 2 million fish. Commonly caught fishes included pacific halibut, rockfishes, lingcod, pacific cod, and the salmons: chinook, chum, coho, pink and sockeye. The most abundantiy harvested of the salmons were coho salmon and sockeye salmon. Current year statistics are not available. HAWAII. In 2007, almost 317,000 marine recreational participants took nearly 2.6 million trips and caught a total of 3.7 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers offish) were yellowfin tuna, skipjack tuna, yellowstripe goatfish, bluefin trevally, and hawaiian flagtail. By weight, the largest harvests were yellowfin tuna, dolphinfish, skipjack tuna, wahoo, bigeye tuna, and bluefin trevally. PUERTO RICO. In 2007, more than 185,000 marine recreational participants took nearly 1.1 million trips and caught a total of nearly 1.3 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were dolphinfish, lane snapper, yellowtail snapper, Span- ish sardine, and redear sardine.

Data on imports and exports cover the international trade of 176 countries or areas. The total value of exports is consistently less than the value of imports, probably because charges for insurance, freight, and similar expenses were included in the import value, but not 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 preparations, whether or not in airtight containers; 6. Oils and fats, crude or refined, of aquatic animal origin; and 7. Meals, solubles, and similar animal foodstuffs of aquatic animal origin.

The total U.S. supply of imports and landings is converted to edible weight and decreases in supply such as exports are subtracted out. The remaining total is divided by a population value to estimate per capita consumption. Data for the model are derived primarily from second- ary sources and are subject to incomplete reporting; changes in source data or invalid model assumptions may each have a significant effect on the resulting calculation. U.S. per capita consumption of fish and shellfish was 16.3 pounds (edible meat) in 2007. This total was 0.2 pounds less than the 16.5 pounds consumed in 2006. Per capita consumption of fresh and frozen products was 12.1 pounds, 0.2 pound less than in 2006. Fresh and frozen finfish accounted for 6.6 pounds while fresh and frozen shellfish consumption was 5.5 pounds per capita. Consumption of canned fishery products was 3.9 pounds per capita in 2007, the same as in 2006. Cured fish accounted for 0.3 pound per capita, the same as in previous years. Imports of edible seafood made up 84 percent of the consumption. PER CAPITA USE. Per capita use is based on the supply of fishery products, both edible and non-edible (industrial), on a round-weight equivalent basis without considering beginning or ending stocks, defense pur- chases, or exports. The per capita use of all edible and industrial fishery products in 2007 was 67.9 pounds, down 2.0 pounds compared with 2006. WORLD CONSUMPTION. The FAO calculation for apparent consumption is based on a disappearance model. The three year average considers, on a round weight equivalent basis, a countries landings, imports, and exports. The 2003-2005 average data indicates that the United States ranks as the third largest consumer of seafood in the world. 73 Per Capita Consumption U.S. Consumption Annual per capita consumption of seafood products represents the pounds of edible meat consumed from domestically-caught and imported fish and shellfish adjusted for and exports, divided by the civilian population of the United States as of July 1 of each year.

Source:~Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) 77 Per Capita Consumption 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 the beginning or ending stocks, defense purchases, or exports. Per capita use figures are not comparable with per capita consumption data. 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.

The table indexes the average annual exvessel value (price per pound) received for each species or group to the average price per pound received for the same species or group in the base year 1982. The exvessel price for each year was obtained by dividing total value for each species or group by its total quantity as reported in the U. S. commercial landings tables on pages 8 thru 13. The index for each species or group was obtained by multiplying the current annual price by the total quantity caught in 1982 (the base year). That number was then divided by the 1 982 value to obtain the final index: (100 x Current price X 1982 quantity) = Index 1982 Annual value Each index number measures price changes from the 1982 reference period 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 2006, if the price of the same species increased to $1.07, the index in 2007 would be 107.

It also provides for fishery management authority over conti- nental shelf resources and anadromous species beyond the EEZ, except when they are found within a foreign nation's territorial sea or fishery conservation zone (or equivalent), to the extent that such sea or zone is recog- nized 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). The EEZ encompasses approximately 3.36 million square nautical miles. GOVERNING INTERNATIONAL FISHERY AGREEMENT Under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, the Secretary of State, in cooperation with the Secretary of Commerce, nego- tiates Governing International Fishery Agreements (GIFAs) with foreign nations requesting to fish within the EEZ. After a GIFA is signed, it is transmitted by the President to the Congress for ratification. FOREIGN FISHING PERMITS Title II of the Magnuson-Stevens Act governs foreign fishing in U.S. waters. The process applied to foreign fishing has been described in prior issues of this publica- tion. As U.S. fishing capacity grew, foreign participation diminished in directed fisheries, as well as in foreign joint ventures in which U.S. vessels delivered U.S. harvested fish to permitted foreign vessels in the EEZ. Until 2001 , the last directed fishing by foreign vessels occurred in 1991. However, in 2001, a small quantity of Atlantic herring was harvested by foreign vessels. The displace- ment of directed foreign fishing effort in the EEZ marked the achievement of one of the objectives of the Magnuson-Stevens Act: the development of the U.S. fishing industry to take what were in 1976 underutilized species. NMFS continues to maintain certain regulations pertain- ing to foreign fishing should there be a situation in the future in which allowing limited foreign fishing in an underutilized fishery would be advantageous to the U.S. fishing industry. FMPs and PMPs Under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, eight Regional Fishery Management Councils are charged with preparing Fish- ery Management Plans (FMPs) for the fisheries needing management within their areas of authority. After the Councils prepare FMPs that cover domestic and foreign fishing efforts, the FMPs are submitted to the Secretary of Commerce (Secretary) for approval and implemen- tation. The Department, through NMFS agents and the U.S. Coast Guard, is responsible for enforcing the law and regulations. The Secretary is empowered to prepare FMPs in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico for highly migratory species. 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 foreign nation requests a permit. The Secretary is 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. The Atlantic swordfish, Atlantic sharks, and Atlantic billfish fisheries are currently being managed by the Secretary under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, and the Western Atlantic bluefin tuna fishery is managed under the Magnuson-Stevens Act and the Atlantic Tunas Con- vention Act. Under section 304 of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, all Council-prepared FMPs must be reviewed for approval by the Secretary of Commerce. Approved FMPs are implemented by Federal regulations under section 305 of the Act. As of December 31, 2007, there are 46 FMPs in effect. Of these, one is a Secretarial FMP for Atlantic highly migratory species. The FMPs are listed below, under the responsible Council. FMPs may be amended by the Council and the amendments are submitted for approval under the same Secretarial review process as new FMPs. Most of the FMPs have been amended since initial implementation, and the number of amendments is shown with each plan. 84 The Masnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act Pacific Fishery Management Council 1 .

These are species of fish that mature in the ocean, and then ascend streams to spawn in freshwater. In the Magnuson -Stevens Act, these species include, but are not limited to, Adantic and Pacific salmons, steelhead trout, and striped bass. See 42 FR 60682, Nov. 28, 1977. ANALOG PRODUCTS. These include imitation and simulated crab, lobster, shrimp, scallops, and other fish and shellfish products fabricated from processed fish meat (such as surimi). AQUACULTURE. The farming of aquatic organisms in marine, brackish or fresh water. Farming implies private or corporate ownership of the organism and enhancement of production by stocking, feeding, pro- viding protection from predators, or other management measures. Aquaculture production is reported as the weight and value of cultured organisms at their point of final sale. BATTER-COATED FISH PRODUCTS. Sticks and portions or other forms of fish or shellfish coated with a batter containing a leavening agent and mixture of cereal products, flavoring, and other ingredients, and partially cooked in hot oil a short time to expand and set the batter. BOAT, OTHER. Commercial fishing craft not pow- ered by a motor, e.g., rowboat or sailboat, having a capacity of less than 5 net tons. See motorboat. BREADED FISH PRODUCTS. Sticks and portions or other forms of fish or shellfish coated with a non- leavened mixture containing cereal products, flavorings, and other ingredients. Breaded products are sold raw or partially cooked. BREADED SHRIMP. Peeled shrimp coated with breading. The product may be identified as fantail (butterfly) and round, with or without tail fins and last shell segment; also known as portions, sticks, steaks, etc., when prepared from a composite unit of two or more shrimp pieces whole shrimp or a combination of both without fins or shells. BUTTERFLY FILLET. Two skin-on fillets of a fish joined together by the belly skin. See fillets. CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS. Fish, shellfish, or other aquatic animals packed in cans, or other contain- ers, which are hermetically sealed and heat-sterilized. Canned fishery products may include milk, vegetables, or other products. Most, but not all, canned fishery prod- ucts can be stored at room temperature for an indefinite time without spoiling. COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who derives income from catching and selling living resources taken from inland or marine waters. CONSUMPTION OF EDIBLE FISHERY PRODUCTS. Estimated amount of commercially landed fish, shellfish, and other aquatic animals con- sumed by the civilian population of the United States. Consumption includes U.S. production of fisher)' prod- ucts from both domestically caught and imported fish, shellfish, other edible aquatic plants, animals, and im- ported products and excludes exports and purchases by the U.S. Armed Forces. CONTINENTAL SHELF FISHERY RE- SOURCES. These are living organisms of any sedentary species that at the harvestable stage are either (a) immo- bile on or under the seabed, (b) unable to move except in constant physical contact with the seabed or subsoil of the continental shelf. The Magnuson -Stevens Act now lists them as certain abalones, surf clam and ocean quahog, queen conch, Atlantic deep-sea red crab, dungeness crab, stone crab, king crabs, snow (tanner) crabs, American lobster, certain corals, and sponges. CURED FISHERY PRODUCTS. Products pre served by drying, pickling, salting, or smoking; not including canned, frozen, irradiated, or pasteurized prod- ucts. Dried products are cured by sun or air-drying; pickled or salted products are those products preserved by applying salt, or by pickling (immersing in brine or in a vinegar or other preservative solution); smoked prod- ucts are cured with smoke or a combination of smoking and drying or salting. DEFLATED VALUE. The deflated values referred to in this document are calculated with the Gross Domestic Products Implicit Price Deflator. The base year for this index is 1987. EDIBLE WEIGHT. The weight of a seafood item exclusive of bones, offal, etc. EEZ. See U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. EL NINO. This anomalous ocean warming of the eastern Equatorial Pacific occurs at time intervals varying from 2-10 years. El Nino conditions result in an accu- mulation of warm water off South America which reduced the upwelling of nutrient-rich water necessary to 97 Glossary support fisheries production. These conditions extended northward to the U.S. Pacific Coast. In addition to affecting the food available for fish, El Nino appears to alter the normal ranges, distributions, and migrations of fish populations. EUROPEAN UNION. EU 27 Countries: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, C2ech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom EXPORT VALUE. The value reported is generally equivalent to f.a.s. (free alongside ship) value at the U.S. port of export, based on the transaction price, including inland freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the U.S. port of exportation. The value excludes the cost of loading, freight, insurance, and other charges or trans- portation cost beyond the port of exportation. EXPORT WEIGHT. The weight of individual prod- ucts as exported, i.e., fillets, steaks, whole, breaded, etc. Includes both domestic and foreign re-exports data. EXVESSEL PRICE. Price received by the harvester for fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals. FISH BLOCKS. Regular fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of fillets or pieces of fillets cut or sliced from fish. Minced fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of minced flesh produced by a meat and bone separating machine. FISH FILLETS. The sides of fish that are either skinned or have the skin on, cut lengthwise from the backbone. Most types of fillets are boneless or virtually boneless; some may be labeled as "boneless fillets." FISH MEAL. A high-protein animal feed supplement made by cooking, pressing, drying, and grinding fish or shellfish. FISH OIL. An oil extracted from body (body oil) or liver (liver oil) of fish and marine mammals; mostly a byproduct of fish meal production. FISH PORTION. A piece offish flesh that is generally of uniform size with thickness of 3/8 of an inch or more and differs from a fish stick in being wider or of a different shape. A fish portion is generally cut from a fish block. FISH SOLUBLES. A water-soluble protein byproduct of fish meal production. Fish solubles are generally condensed to 50 percent solids and marketed as "con- densed fish solubles." FISH STEAK. A cross-section slice cut from a large dressed fish. A steak is usually about 3/4 of an inch thick. FISH STICK. An elongated piece of breaded fish flesh weighing not less than 3/4 of an ounce and not more than 1-1/2 ounces with the largest dimension at least three times that of the next largest dimension. A fish stick is generally cut from a fish block. FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (FMP). A plan developed by a Regional Fishery Management Council, or the Secretary of Commerce under certain circumstances, to manage a fishery resource in the U.S. EEZ pursuant to the MFCMA (Magnuson Act). FISHING CRAFT, COMMERCIAL. Boats and vessels engaged in capturing fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals for sale. FULL-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who receives more than 50 percent of his or her annual income from commercial fishing activities, includ- ing port activity, such as vessel repair and re-rigging. GROUNDFISH. Broadly, fish that are caught on or near the sea floor. The term includes a wide variety of bottom fishes, rockfishes, and flatfishes. However, NMFS sometimes uses the term in a narrower sense. In "Fisher- ies of the United States," the term applies to the following species— Atlantic and Pacific: cod, hake, ocean perch, and pollock; cusk; and haddock. IMPORT VALUE. Value of imports as appraised by the U.S. Customs Service according to the Tariff Act of 1 930, as amended. It may be based on foreign market value, constructed value, American selling price, etc. It generally represents a value in a foreign country, and therefore excludes U.S. import duties, freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in bringing the merchandise to the United States. IMPORT WEIGHT. The weights of individual prod- ucts as received, i.e., fillets, steaks, whole, headed, etc. INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS. Items pro cessed from fish, shellfish, or other aquatic plants and animals that are not consumed directly by humans. These items contain products from seaweeds, fish meal, fish oils, fish solubles, pearl essence, shark and other aquatic animal skins, and shells. 98 Glossary INTERNAL WATER PROCESSING (IWPs). An operation in which a foreign vessel is authorized by the governor of a state to receive and process fish in the internal waters of a state. The Magnuson Act refers to internal waters as all waters within the boundaries of a state except those seaward of the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured. JOINT VENTURE. An operation authorized under the (Magnuson -Stevens Act) in which a foreign vessel is authorized to receive fish from U.S. fishermen in the U.S. EEZ. The fish received from the U.S. vessel are part of the U.S. harvest. LANDINGS, COMMERCIAL. Quantities of fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals brought ashore and sold. Landings of fish may be in terms of round (live) weight or dressed weight. Landings of crustaceans are generally on a live -weight basis except for shrimp which may be on a heads-on or heads-off basis. Mollusks are generally landed with the shell on, but for some species only the meats are landed, such as sea scallops. Data for all mollusks are published on a meat- weight basis. MAGNUSON-STEVENS FISHERY CONSER- VATION AND MANAGEMENT ACT, Public Law 94-265, as amended. The Magnuson-Stevens Act provides a national program for the conservation and management of fisheries to allow for an optimum yield (OY) on a continuing basis and to realize the full potential of the Nation's fishery resources. It established the U.S. Exclusive Economics Zone (EEZ) (formerly the FCZ - Fishery Conservation Zone) and a means to control foreign and certain domestic fisheries through PMPs and FMPs. Within the U.S. EEZ, the United States has exclusive management authority over fish (meaning fin- fish, 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 be- yond the U.S. EEZ for all continental shelf fishery resources and all anadromous species throughout the migratory range of each such species, except during the time they are found within any foreign 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. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING. Fishing for pleasure, amusement, relaxation, or home consump- tion. 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. Their catch is primarily for home consumption, although occasionally a part or all of their catch may be sold and enter commercial channels. This definition is used in the NMFS Marine Recreational Fishery Statistics Survey, and is not intended to represent a NMFS policy on the sale of angler-caught fish. MAXIMUM SUSTAINABLE YIELD (MSY). MSY from a fishery is the largest annual catch or yield in terms of weight offish caught by both commercial and recreational fishermen that can be taken continuously from a stock under existing environmental conditions. A determination of MSY, which should be an estimate based upon the best scientific information available, is a biological 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. MOTORBOAT. 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". NORTHWEST ATLANTIC FISHERIES OR- GANIZATION (NAFO). This convention, entered into force January 1, 1979, replaces ICNAF. NAFO provides a forum for continued multilateral scientific research and investigation of fishery resources that occur beyond the limits of coastal nations' fishery jurisdiction in the northwest Atlantic, and will ensure consistency be- tween 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 particu- lar reference to food production and recreational op- portunities; and (2) is prescribed as such on the basis of maximum sustainable yield from such fishery, as modi- fied by any relevant ecological, economic, or social factors. 99 Glossary PART-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who receives less than 50 percent of his or her annual income from commercial fishing activities. PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION. Consumption of edible fishery products in the United States divided by the total civilian population. In calculating annual per capita consumption, estimates of the civilian resident popula- tion of the United States on July 1 of each year are used. These estimates are taken from current population re- ports, 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. PRELIMINARY FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (PMP). The Secretary of Commerce prepares a PMP whenever a foreign nation with which the United States has made a Governing International Fishery Agree- ment (GIFA) submits an application to fish in a fishery not managed by an FMP. A PMP is replaced by an FMP as soon as the latter is implemented. A PMP applies only to foreign fishing. RE-EXPORTS. Re-exports are commodities which have entered the U.S. as imports and are subsequently exported in substantially the same condition as when originally imported. RETAIL PRICE. The price offish and shellfish sold to the final consumer by food stores and other retail outlets. ROUND (LIVE) WEIGHT. The weight of fish, shellfish, or other aquatic plants and animals as taken from the water; the complete or full weight as caught. The tables on world catch found in this publication include, in the case of mollusks, the weight of both the shells and the meats, whereas the tables on U.S. landings include only the weight of the meats. SURIMI. Minced fish meat (usually Alaska pollock) which has been washed to remove fat and undesirable matters (such as blood, pigments, and odorous sub- stances), and mixed with cryoprotectants, such as sugar and/or sorbitol, for a good frozen shelf life. TOTAL ALLOWABLE LEVEL OF FOREIGN FISHING (TALFF). 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 yield of such fishery which will not be har- vested by vessels of the United States, as determined by provisions of the MFCMA. U.S. EXCLUSIVE ECONOMIC ZONE (EEZ). The MSFCMA (Magnuson-Stevens Act) defines this zone as contiguous to the territorial sea of the United States and extending seaward 200 nautical miles mea- sured from the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured. This was formerly referred to as the FCZ (Fishery Conservation Zone). U.S.-FLAG VESSEL LANDINGS. Includes land- ings 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 foreign ports, U.S. territories, and foreign vessels in the U.S. FCZ under joint venture agreements. U.S. law prohibits vessels constructed or registered in foreign countries 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 is 3 marine leagues (9 nautical miles) USE OF FISHERY PRODUCTS. Estimated disap- pearance of the total supply of fishery products, both edible and nonedible, on a round-weight basis without considering beginning or ending stocks, exports, military purchases, or shipments to U.S. territories. VESSEL. A commercial fishing craft having a capacity of 5 net tons or more. These craft are either enrolled or documented by the U.S. Coast Guard and have an official number assigned by that agency. WHOLESALE FISH AND SHELLFISH PRICES. Those prices received at principal fishery markets by primary wholesalers (processors, importers, and brokers) for customary quantities, free on board (f.o.b.) warehouse. 100 Statistical Subject Index AOUACULTURE Production, 16 CLAMS Aquaculture, 16 Canned, 45 Exports, 56 Imports, 49 Landings, 4, 12 Supply, 70 Value of landings, 4, 12 CONSUMPTION Canned, 74,75 Cured, 74 Fillets and steaks, 75 Fresh and frozen, 74 Percapita,U.S.,74 Per capita, use, 78 Salmon, canned, 75 Sardines, canned, 75 Shellfish, canned, 75 Shrimp, 75 Sticks and portions, 75 Tuna, canned, 75 World, 76 CRABS Canned, 45, 68 Exports, 56, 61, Imports, 49 Landings, 3, 12, 14,15 Supply, 68 Value of landings, 3, 12, 14,15 World catch, 39 DISPOSITION OF LANDINGS United States, 5 World, 41 EMPLOYMENT Processors and wholesalers, 82 Region and State, 82 EXPORTS All fishery products, 56 Crabs, 56, 61 Crabmeat, 56, 61 Continent and country, by, 58 Cured, 56 Edible, by years, 57 Fish meal, 56, 62 Herring, 56 Nonedible, by years, 57 Oils, 56, 62 Principal items, 56 Salmon, canned, 56, 60 Salmon, whole or eviscerated, 56, 60 Sardines, canned, 56 Shrimp, canned, 56, 59 Shrimp, domestic and foreign products ,59 Shrimp, fresh and frozen, 56, 59 Value, by years, 56 Volume, by years, 56 World, by country, 41 FLOUNDERS Fillets, 44 Landings, 1,8 Value of landings, 1 , 8 GROUNDFISH FIT I FTS AND STEAKS Exports, 56 Fillets, supply, 65 Imports, 49 FJALJBIJT Fillets and steaks, 44 Landings, 1 , 9 Value of landings, 1 , 9 HERRING.

A HACCP-based service is also available. Services provided by the program include vessel and plant sanitation, product inspection and grading, label reviews, product specification reviews, laboratory analyses, training, education and information. Inspection and certification sendees are available nationwide and in U.S. territories for all interested parties. Consultative services are provided in foreign countries. Inspection and certification services are als< ) pr< >vided for imported and exp< >rted products. '1 he USDC Sea tor >< 1 1 nspection Program also provides HA(Jd3 training, plan development, implementation assistance, and verification sen ice to industry ^domestic and foreign) for the purpose of demonstrating compliance with FDA's H ACCP rule (2 1 CFR Parts 1 23 and 1 240; regarding "Procedures for the Safe and Sanitary Processing and Importing of Fish and Fishery Products" which was implemented December 18, 1997. USERS OF INSPECTION SERVICES. The users of the voluntary seafood inspection senice include vessel owners, processors, distributors, brokers, retailers, food service operators, exporters, importers, and those who have a financial interest in bu\ i ngand selling seafood products. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recommends that USDC inspected products be purchased tor its food feeding programs. The USDC PARTICAPANTS LIST FOR FIRMS, FACILITIES AND PRODUCTS, published bi-annu provides a listing of products and participants who contract with USDC. USDC INSPECTION MARKS. These marks designate the level and the type of inspection performed by the federal inspector. The marks can be used in advertising and labeling under the guidelines provided by the Seafood Inspection Program and in accordance with federal and state regulations regarding advertising and labeling. Products bearing the USDC official marks have been certified as being safe, wholesome, and properly labeled. "US GRADE A" MARK. The U.S. GRADE A mark signifies that a product has been processed under federal inspection in an approved facility and meets the established level of quality of an existing U.S. grade standard. The U.S. G rade . \ mark indicates that the product is of high quality, uniform in size, practically free from blemishes and defects, in excellent condition and possessinggoocl flavor and odor. "PROCESSED UNDER FEDERAL INSPECTION" MARK. The PUFI mark or statement signifies that the product is certified to be safe, wholesome and properly labeled, conforms to quality and other criteria in the approved specification, and has been officially inspected in a USDC sanitarily approved facility under Federal inspection. "LOT INSPECTED" MARK. The USDC Lot Inspected mark identifies products thatwere officiallv sampled and inspected to conform to an approved specification or criteria. This mark may be used on retail packages and packaging provided the label and specification are approved. "RETAIL" MARK. In response to requests made by industry, a new mark has been created for retail or food senice establishments. Participants qualify for use of the "Retail Mark" by receiving the USDC HACCP-based sentice or being under contract for sanitation services and associated product evaluation. Usage of such a mark will give the retail industry the opportunity to advertise on their banners, logos, or menus that their facility has been recognized by USDC for proper sanitation and handling of fishery products. USDC HACCP MARK. The USDC HACCP-based service is available to all interested parties on a fee-for-service basis. Label approval, record keeping and analytical testing are program requirements. Anindustrv USDC-certified employee trained in H \( VP principles is also required for each facility/site in the program. Compliance ratings determine frequency of official visits. Benefits to participants include increased controls through a more scientific approach, use of established marks, increased efficiency of federal inspection personnel, and enhanced consumer confidence. The USDC has made available a HACCP mark and a "banner" to distinguish products that have been produced under the H ACCP-based pr< >gram. The H A( )CP banner must be used as an attachment t< > existing inspection grade marks. Establishments meeting HACCP program requirements may use these marks in conjunction with promotional material, packaging, point-of-sale notices, and menus.
