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 2008. 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: Ted Hawes, 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; BiUJacobson, for Califor- nia; David Hamm, for Hawaii and Pacific Islands; Geoff White at the Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statistical 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 87 percent of the total landings, but only 51 percent of the value. The 2008 average exvessel price paid to fishermen was 53 cents compared to 45 cents in 2007. 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 1.1 million metric tons in 2008 and comprised less 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 250.9 million pounds (113,886 metric tons) valued at $89.9 million. This was an increase of 58 percent, or 92.6 million pounds (42,048 metric tons) in quantity and $27.4 million (44 percent) in value compared with 2007. 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 6.6 billion pounds (3.0 million metric tons) in 2008 — a decrease of 856,700 thousand pounds (389 metric tons) compared with 2007. Landings for reduction and other industrial purposes were 1.7 billion pounds (767,639 metric tons) in 2008 — a decrease of 7 percent compared with 2007. The 2008 U.S. marine recreational finfish catch (including fish kept and fish released (discarded)) on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts was an estimated 463.9 million fish taken on an estimated 84.8 million fishing trips. The harvest (fish kept or released dead) was estimated at 196.7 million fish weighing 247.6 million pounds. WORLD LANDINGS In 2007, the most recent year for which data are available, world commercial fishery landings and aquaculture pro- duction were 140.4 million metric tons — an increase of 3.2 million metric tons compared with 2006. China was the leading nation with 32.8 percent of the total harvest followed by India and Peru with 5.2 percent. Indonesia was the fourth leading producer with 4.5 percent and the United States was fifth with 3.8 percent. PRICES The 2008 annual exvessel price index for edible fish increased by 57 percent, shellfish increased 8 percent and industrial decreased 12 percent comparing with 2007. Exvessel price indices increased for 26 out of 32 species groups being tracked, decreased for 5 species groups, and unchanged for 1 species groups. The yellowfin tuna price index had the largest increase (158 percent) while haddock price index showed the largest decrease (24 percent). PROCESSED PRODUCTS The estimated value of the 2008 domestic production of edible and nonedible fishery products was $7.6 billion, $794.9 million less than in 2007. The value of edible products was $7.0 billion — a decrease of $748.7 million compared with 2007. The value of industrial products was $565.8 million in 2008 — a decrease of $46.2 million compared with 2007. FOREIGN TRADE The total import value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $28.5 billion in 2008 — a decrease of $320.5 million compared with 2007. Imports of edible fishery products (product weight) were 5.2 billion pounds valued at $14.2 billion in 2008 — a decrease of 120.4 million pounds but an increase of $474.6 million com- pared with 2007. Imports of nonedible (i.e., industrial) products were $14.3 billion — a decrease of $795.1 million compared with 2007. IV rj . si&Vh ■■mMHM^^^B Total export value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $23.4 billion in 2008 — an increase of $3.3 billion compared with 2007. United States firms ex- ported 2.7 billion pounds of edible products valued at $4.3 billion — a decrease of 219.3 million pounds and a decreace $1 1.8 million compared with 2007. Exports of nonedible products were valued at $19.1 billion, $3.3 billion more than 2007. SUPPLY The U.S. supply of edible fishery products (domestic landings plus imports, round weight equivalent, minus exports) was 11.8 billion pounds in 2008 — a decrease of 655.6 million pounds compared with 2007. The supply of industrial fishery products was 1.1 billion pounds in 2008 — an increase of 50.2 million pounds compared with 2007. PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION U.S. consumption of fisher}' products was 16.0 pounds of edible meat per person in 2008, down 0.3 pound from the 2007 per capita consumption of 16.3 pounds. CONSUMER EXPENDITURES U.S. consumers spent an estimated $69.8 billion for fishery products in 2008. The 2008 total includes $46.8 billion in expenditures at food service establishments (restaurants, carry-outs, caterers, etc.); $22.7 billion in retail sales for home consumption; and $389.4 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 $35.0 billion (in value added) to the U.S. Gross National Product.

Detailed information on marine recreational fishing is required to support a variety of fishery management and development purposes and is mandated by the Sustainable Fisheries Act, 1 996 (PL 104-297) and the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conserva- tion and Management Reauthorization Act of 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 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. Alaska conducts an annual mail survey in place of the NMFS' program. On the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts and California, 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 and party (head) boats 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 surveys 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. 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. 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. Shore fishing modes have not been covered in Oregon and Washington since 2003. Puget Sound estimates for 2003 onward have not been released COVERAGE. In 2008, 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) party boat catch data have not been collected since 1985, so estimates for these sub-regions only include charter 20 U.S. Marine Recreational Fisheries 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. Prior to 1998, on the Pacific coast, ocean boat trips and salmon trips were not sampled during certain waves because they were sur- veyed 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 Adantic and Gulf coasts is taken during Wave 1 (J an/ 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 Adantic coast of Florida. With a few exceptions the 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, bavs], state territorial seas [ocean to 3 miles from shore, except for Florida's Gulf coast, where state territorial seas extend to 1 0 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. 2008 MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING DATA. In 2008, almost 12 million anglers made nearly 85 million marine recreational fishing trips on the Atlan- tic, Gulf and Pacific coasts. The estimated total marine recreational catch was nearly 464 million fish, of which almost 58 percent were released alive. The estimated total weight of harvested catch was almost 248 million pounds. The Atlantic coast accounted for the majority of trips (more than 61 percent) and catch (54 percent). The Gulf coast accounted for almost 30 percent of trips, and nearly 42 percent of the catch. The Pacific coast accounted for 5 percent of trips, and almost 3 percent of the catch. Nationally, most (nearly 63 percent in numbers offish) of the recreational catch came from inland waters, nearly 29 percent from state territorial seas, and 8 percent from the EEZ. The majority of Adantic, Gulf and Pacific trips fished primarily in inland waters. ATLANTIC In 2008, nearly 7.5 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All partici- pants, including visitors, took 52 million trips and caught a total of over 251 million fish. Almost 22 percent of the trips were made in east Florida, followed by nearly 14 percent in North Carolina, 13 percent in New Jersey, more than 1 1 percent in New York, almost 9 percent in Massachusetts, almost 7 percent in Virginia, and almost 7 percent in Maryland. Together, South Carolina, Con- necticut, and Rhode Island accounted for almost 12 percent of the trips, and Georgia, Delaware, Maine, and New Hampshire accounted for the remaining percent- age. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers offish) were summer flounder, Adantic croaker, bluefish, spot, and black sea bass. The largest harvests b\ weight were striped bass, bluefish, dolphinfish, summer flounder, and Atlantic croaker. From 1999 to 2008, total annual catch of striped bass has averaged more than 1 8 million fish. Catch increased until 2006 but has decreased in subsequent years. From the total catch in 2008 (14 million fish), over 85 percent were released alive. Over the last ten years, the total annual catch of summer flounder increased overall from more than 21 million fish (1999) to almost 25 million fish (2008). In 2008, summer flounder catch (almost 25 million fish) was more than 6 percent above the 10-year average of 23 million fish. The species most commonly caught on Atlantic coast trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were black sea bass. Atlantic cod, dolphinfish, summer flounder, and bluefish. Al- 21 U.S. Marine Recreational Fisheries most 29 percent of the total Atlantic catch came on saltwater trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and nearly 63 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. GULF OF MEXICO. In 2008, nearly 3.2 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All participants, including visitors, took 25 million trips and caught nearly 194 million fish. Over 67 percent of the trips were made in west Florida, followed by 1 8 percent in Louisiana, almost 7 percent in Alabama, over 4 percent in Texas, and nearly 4 percent in Mississippi. The most commonly caught non-bait species (numbers of fish) were spotted seatrout, red drum, gray snapper, sand seatrout, and gag. The largest harvests by weight were for spotted seatrout, red drum, sheepshead, red snapper, gag, and black drum. From 1 983 to 2008, total annual catch of red snapper has averaged 1 .2 million fish. Catch declined to a low in 1 990 but has been increasing. From the total catch in 2008 (almost 2.7 million fish), nearly 72 percent were released alive. Over the last ten years, the total annual catch of king mackerel declined to a low in 1989 but has been increasing. In 2008, king mackerel catch (nearly 385,000 fish) was almost 82 percent above the 10-year average of 212,000 fish. The species most commonly caught on Gulf of Mexico trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were red grouper, gag, red snapper, white grunt, and gray snapper. Over 25 percent of the total Gulf catch came on trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and more than 67 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. PACIFIC. In 2008, almost 1.1 million marine recre- ational fishing participants took almost 4.3 million trips and caught a total of almost 13 million fish. Almost 95 percent of the trips were made in California, followed by 3 percent in Oregon, and more than 2 percent in Washington. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were Pacific sardine, black rockfish, kelp bass, barred surfperch, and barred sandbass. By weight, the largest harvests were black rockfish, albacore, California halibut, lingcod, Chinook salmon, and Pacific halibut. Over the last ten years, the total annual catch of Chinook salmon decreased overall from over 778,000 fish in 1 999 to almost 76,000 fish in 2008. In 2008, Chinook salmon catch (almost 76,000 fish) was nearly 87 percent below the 10-year average of almost 573,000 fish. From 1999 to 2008, total annual catch of coho salmon has averaged 553,000 fish. Catch increased until 2001 but has de- creased in subsequent years. From the total catch in 2008 (96,000 fish), nearly 27 percent were released alive. The most commonly caught Pacific coast species in federally managed waters were California scorpionfish, Pacific sanddab, barred sandbass, kelp bass, and vermilion rockfish. Almost 76 percent of the total Pacific catch came from trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and almost 19 percent came from trips that fished primarily in inland waters. ALASKA. In 2007, 988,000 marine recreational fishing participants took nearly 1 .5 million trips and caught a total of almost 2.5 million fish. Commonly caught fishes included pacific halibut, rockfishes, lingcod, pacific cod, and the salmons: chinook, chum, coho, pink and sockeye. The most abundandy harvested of the salmons were coho salmon and sockeye salmon. Current year statistics are not available. HAWAII. In 2008, nearly 329,000 marine recreational participants took 2.5 million trips and caught a total of nearly 4.7 million fish. The most commonly caught non- bait species (in numbers of fish) were skipjack tuna, yellowfin tuna, yellowstripe goatfish, hawaiian flagtail, and bluefin trevally. By weight, the largest harvests were yellowfin tuna, skipjack tuna, dolphinfish, wahoo, blue marlin, and giant trevally. PUERTO RICO. In 2008, almost 150,000 marine recreational participants took almost 799,000 trips and caught a total of 1.5 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were dolphinfish, lane snapper, yellowtail snapper, blue run- ner, and white grunt.

In 2008 the U.S. production of raw (uncooked) fish fillets and steaks, including blocks, was 575.3 million pounds-56.9 million pounds less than the 632.2 million pounds in 2007 due primarily to a large decrease in Alaska Pollock. All fillets and steaks were valued at $1 .3 billion. Despite a decrease of 1 16.7 million pounds from the 2007 volume, Alaska pollock fillets and blocks led all species with 284.2 million pounds— 49 percent of the total. Production of ground- fish fillets and steaks (see Glossary Section-Groundfish) was 391.5 million pounds. FISH STICKS AND PORTIONS. The combined production offish sticks and portions was 286.7 million pounds valued at $429.6 million compared with the 2007 production of 267.9 million pounds valued at 1405.1 million. The total production offish sticks amounted to 82.3 million pounds valued at $120.0 million. The total production of fish portions amounted to 204.3 million pounds valued at $309.5 million. BREADED SHRIMP. The production of breaded shrimp in 2008 was 74.2 million pounds valued at $1 59.3 million. This represents a decline from the 2007 produc- tion of 86.1 million pounds valued at $200.1 million. CANNED PRODUCTS CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS. The pack of canned fishery products in the 50 states, American Samoa, and Puerto Rico was 1.3 billion pounds valued at $1.4 billion — increases from the 2007 pack of 1.1 billion pounds valued at $1.3 billion. The 2008 pack included 71 3.8 million pounds with a value of $1 .2 billion for human consumption and 600.5 million pounds valued at $229.6 million for bait and animal food. CANNED SALMON. The 2008 U.S. pack of salmon was 123.9 million pounds valued at $225.3 million, decreases from the 2007 levels of 142.4 million pounds valued at $273.5 million. CANNED TUNA. The U.S. pack of tuna was 473.9 million pounds valued at $844.9 million — strong in- creases of 37.6 million pounds in quantity and $142.5 million in value compared with the 2007 pack. The pack of albacore tuna was 180.4 million pounds comprising 38 percent of the tuna pack in 2008. Lightmeat tuna (bigeye, bluefin, skipjack, and yellowfin) comprised the remainder with a pack of 293.5 million pounds. CANNED CLAMS. The 2008 U.S. pack of clams (whole, minced, chowder, juice, and specialties) was 105.3 million pounds valued at $95.4 million. The pack of whole and minced clams was 26.6 million pounds. Clam chowder and clam juice was 77.4 million pounds and made up the majority of the pack. OTHER CANNED ITEMS. The pack of pet food and bait was 600.5 million pounds valued at $229.6 million — a large increase in volume but a small decrease in value from the 2007 levels of 371.0 million pounds worth $233.6 million. INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS. The value of the domestic production of industrial fishery prod- ucts was $309.8 million — a decrease of $30.1 million compared with the 2007 value but still above recent historical levels. FISH MEAL. The domestic production of fish and shellfish meal was 492.8 million pounds valued at $1 82.0 million— decreases of 70.4 million pounds and $36.3 million compared with 2007. Most of this production was fish meal (491.8 million pounds) while shellfish meal production was 1.1 million pounds — a decrease of 1.0 million pounds from the 2007 level. FISH OILS. The domestic production offish oils was 190.0 million pounds (approximately 24.5 million gallons) valued at $63.2 million— increases of 37.8 million pounds and $3.6 million in value compared with 2007 production. OTHER INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTS. Oyster shell products, together with agar- agar, animal feeds, crab and clam shells processed for food serving, fish pellets, Irish moss extracts, kelp products, dry and liquid fertilizers, and mussel shell buttons were valued at $64.6 million. 42 Processed Fishery Products VALUE OF PROCESSED FISHERY PRODUCTS, 2007 AND 2008 (Processed from domestic catch and imported products) Item 2007(1) 2008 Thousand Percent Thousand Percent dollars of total dollars of total Edible: Fresh and frozen 6,516,562 78 5,718,848 75 Canned 1,090,070 13 1,190,350 16 Cured 171,271 2 119,978 2 Total edible 7,777,903 93 7,029,176 93 Industrial: Bait and animal food 278,497 3 262,771 3 Meal and oil 277,874 3 245,240 3 Other 55,639 1 57,762 1 Total industrial 612,010 7 565,773 7 Grand total 8,389,913 100 7,594,949 100 (1) Revised.

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 consumpdon. 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 16.0 pounds (edible meat) in 2008. This total was 0.3 pounds less than the 16.3 pounds consumed in 2007. Per capita consumption of fresh and frozen products was 11.8 pounds, 0.3 pound less than in 2007. Fresh and frozen finfish accounted for 6.2 pounds while fresh and frozen shellfish consumption was 5.6 pounds per capita. Consumption of canned fishery products was 3.9 pounds per capita in 2008, the same as in 2007. Cured fish accounted for 0.3 pound per capita, the same as in previous years. Imports of edible seafood made up 83 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 2008 was 63.2 pounds, down 4.7 pounds compared with 2007. 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. "3 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 2007, if the price of the same species increased to $1.07, the index in 2008 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, 2008, there are 45 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. 84 The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act Pacific Fishery Management Council 1. Pacific Coast Groundfish FMP 2.

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.

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 fishery 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 oft 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, Czech 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; mosdy 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 1930, 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 direcdy 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 Fishety 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 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, 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 ot 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 fisher}' 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, 4 1 FLOUNDERS Fillets, 44 Landings, 1, 8 Value of landings, 1,8 GROUNDFISH FILLETS AND STEAKS Exports, 56 Fillets, supply, 65 Imports, 49 HALIRUT Fillets and steaks, 44 Landings, 1,9 Value of landings, 1,9 HERRING.SEA Canned (sardines), 50 Consumption (sardines), per capita, 75 Landings, 1,9 Exports (sardines), 56 Imports (sardines), 49 Value of landings, 1,9 World catch, 39 IMPORTS All fishery products, 49, 50 Blocks and slabs, 49, 52 Clams, canned, 49 Continent and country, by. 5 1 Crabmeat, canned, fresh and frozen, 49 Cured, 49 Edible, 49, 50, 51 Fillets, groundfish, 49, 52 Fillets, other than groundfish and ocean perch, 49 Groundfish, 49, 52 Herring, canned, 49 Industrial, 55 Lobsters, canned, 49 Lobsters, fresh and frozen, 49 Meal and scrap, 49, 55 Nonedible, 49, 50, 51 Oils, 49, Oysters, canned, 49 Principal items, 49 Quota, canned tuna, not in oil, 53 Salmon, canned, 49 Salmon, fresh and frozen, 49 Sardines, canned, 49 Scallop meats, 49 Shellfish, 49 Shrimp, by country, 55 Shrimp, by products, 55 Tuna, canned, 49, 53 Tuna, fresh and frozen, 49 Value, by years, 50 Volume, by year, 50 World.41 INSPECTION Establishments and amount inspected, 83 LANDINGS Disposition, 5 Foreign shores, off, 8 Human food (edible), 5 Industrial. 5 Months, by. 5 Ports, major U.S., 7 Record year, by states. 6 Species. 1, 8 State and region, current. 6 Territory. 14 U.S. shores, distance from. 8 World. 39. 40. 41 101 Statistical Subject Index LOBSTERS.AMERICAN Imports, 49 Landings, 3, 12 Supply, 69 Value of landings, 3, 12 LOBSTER.
