Preface 


FISHERIES  OF  THE  UNITED  STATES,   2001 

This  publication  is  a  preliminary  report  for  2001  on 
commercial  and  recreational  fisheries  of  the  United 
States  with  landings  from  the  U.S.  territorial  seas,  the  U.S. 
Exclusive  Economic  Zone  (EEZ),  and  on  the  high  seas. 
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  and  Economics  Division 
in  Silver  Spring,  MD,  managed  the  collection  and  com- 
pilation of  recreational  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. 
Bureau  of  the  Census,  U.S.  Bureau  of  Labor  Statistics, 
U.S.  Coast  Guard,  U.S.  Customs  Service,  U.S.  Depart- 
ment of  the  Interior,  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture, 
and  the  Food  and  Agriculture  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  2001.  Final  data  will  be 
published  in  other  NMFS  Current  Fishery  Statistics 
publications. 

The  Fisheries  Statistics  and  Economics  Division  of 
NMFS  takes  this  opportunity  to  thank  states,  industry, 
and  foreign  nations  who  provided  the  data  that  made  this 
publication  possible.  Program  leaders  of  the  field  offices 
were:  Gregory  Power,  Scott  McNamara,  and  Gene 
Steady  for  New  England,  Middle  Atlantic,  and  Chesa- 
peake; Scott  Nelson,  U.S.  Geological  Survey,  Great 
Lakes  States;  Linda  Hardy,  Guy  Davenport,  and  Maggie 
Bourgeois  for  the  South  Atlantic  and  Gulf  States;  Patricia 
J.  Donley,  California  and  Hawaii;  John  K.  Bishop, 
Oregon  and  Washington;  and  David  Ham  assisting 
Peggy  Murphy  of  the  Pacific  State  Marine  Fisheries 
Commission  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  1992;  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 
from  the  foreign  country'  to  the  United  States,  and 
insurance;  the  value  for  exports  is  generally  the  value  at  the 
U.S.  port  of  export,  based  on  the  selling  price,  including 
inland  freight,  insurance,  and  other  charges.  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.

U.S.   LANDINGS 

Commercial  landings  (edible  and  industrial)  by  U.S. 
fishermen  at  ports  in  the  50  states  were  9.5  billion  pounds 
or  4.3  million  metric  tons  valued  at  $3.2  billion  in  2001 — 
an  increase  of  422.9  million  pounds  (up  5  percent)  but 
a  decrease  of  $321.2  million  (down  9  percent)  compared 
with  2000.  Finfish  accounted  for  87  percent  of  the  total 
landings,  but  only  46  percent  of  the  value.  The  2001 
average  exvessel  price  paid  to  fishermen  was  34  cents 
compared  to  39  cents  in  2000. 

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 .0  million  metric  tons  in 
2001  and  comprised  more  than  25  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  305.5 
million  pounds  (138,600  metric  tons)  valued  at  $115.5 
million.  This  was  an  increase  of  5  percent,  or  15.2  million 
pounds  (6,900  metric  tons)  in  quantity  and  $26.6  million 
(30  percent)  in  value  compared  with  2000.  Most  of  these 
landings  consisted  of  halibut,  sea  herring  and  tuna  landed 
in  Canada,  American  Samoa  and  other  foreign  ports. 

Edible  fish  and  shellfish  landings  in  the  50  states  were  7.3 
billion  pounds  (3.3  million  metric  tons)  in  2001 — an 
increase  of  402.0  million  pounds  (182,400  metric  tons) 
compared  with  2000. 

Landings  for  reduction  and  other  industrial  purposes 
were  2.2  billion  pounds  (998,200  metric  tons)  in  2001 — 
an  increase  of  1  percent  compared  with  2000. 

The  2001  U.S.  marine  recreational  finfish  catch  (including 
fish  kept  and  fish  released  (discarded))  on  the  Atlantic, 
Gulf,  and  Pacific  coasts  was  an  estimated  440.3  million 
fish  taken  on  an  estimated  84.3  million  fishing  trips.  The 
harvest  (fish  kept  or  released  dead)  was  estimated  at 
186.7  million  fish  weighing  262.4  million  pounds. 


WORLD  LANDINGS 

In  2000,  the  most  recent  year  for  which  data  are  available, 
world  commercial  fishery  landings  and  aquaculture  were 
130.4  million  metric  tons — an  increase  of  3.8  million 
metric  tons  (up  3  percent)  compared  with  1999. 

China  was  the  leading  nation  with  31.9  percent  of  the 
total  harvest;  Peru,  second  with  8.2  percent;  Japan,  third 
with  4.4  percent;  India,  fourth  with  4.4  percent;  and 
United  States,  fifth  with  4.0  percent. 

PRICES 

The  2001  annual  exvessel  price  index  for  edible  fish 
decreased  by  6  percent,  shellfish  decreased  by  5  percent, 
and  industrial  fish  remained  unchanged  when  compared 
with  2000.  Exvessel  price  indices  increased  for  18  of  the 
33  species  groups  being  tracked,  decreased  for  1 1  species 
groups,  were  unchanged  for  four  species  groups,  and 
weren't  available  for  one  species.  The  bay  scallops  price 
index  had  the  largest  increase  (115  percent)  while  sockeye 
salmon  and  other  shrimp  price  index  showed  the  largest 
decrease  (28  percent). 

PROCESSED   PRODUCTS 

The  estimated  value  of  the  2001  domestic  production  of 
edible  and  nonedible  fishery  products  was  $7.4  billion, 
$731.5  million  less  than  in  2000.  The  value  of  edible 
products  was  $6.8  billion — a  decrease  of  $741.0  million 
compared  with  2000.  The  value  of  industrial  products 
was  $520.4  million  in  2001 — an  increase  of  $9.5  million 
compared  with  2000. 

FOREIGN  TRADE 

The  total  import  value  of  edible  and  nonedible  fishery 
products  was  $18.5  billion  in  2001— a  decrease  of 
$466.3  million  compared  with  2000.  Imports  of  edible 
fisher)'  products  (product  weight)  were  4.1  billion  pounds 
(1.9  million  metric  tons)  valued  at  $9.9  billion  in  2001 — 
an  increase  of  123.8  million  pounds  but  a  decrease  of 
$1 89.6  million  compared  with  2000.  Imports  of  nonedible 
(i.e.,  industrial)  products  were  $8.7  billion — a  decrease  of 
$276.7  million  compared  with  2000. 

Total  export  value  of  edible  and  nonedible  fishery 
products  was  $11.8  billion  in  2001 — an  increase  of  $1.1 


billion  compared  with  2000.  United  States  firms  ex- 
ported 2.6  billion  pounds  (1.2  million  metric  tons)  of 
edible  products  valued  at  $3.2  billion — an  increase  of 
400.0  million  pounds,  and  $242.8  million  compared  with 
2000.  Exports  of  nonedible  products  were  valued  at 
$8.6  billion,  $809.3  million  more  than  2000. 

SUPPLY 

The  U.S.  supply  of  edible  fishery  products  (domestic 
landings  plus  imports,  round  weight  equivalent,  minus 
exports)  was  9.5  billion  pounds  (4.3  million  metric  tons) 
in  2001 — a  decrease  of  621.7  million  pounds  (6  percent) 
compared  with  2000.  The  supply  of  industrial  fishery 
products  was  1.5  billion  pounds  (671,200  metric  tons)  in 
2001 — an  increase  of  51.5  million  pounds  (4  percent) 
compared  with  2000. 


PER  CAPITA  CONSUMPTION 

U.S.  consumption  of  fishery  products  was  14.8  pounds  of 
edible  meat  per  person  in  2001 ,  down  0.4  pound  from  the 
revised  2000  per  capita  consumption  of  15.2  pounds. 

CONSUMER   EXPENDITURES 

U.S.  consumers  spent  an  estimated  $55.3  billion  for 
fishery  products  in  2001.  The  2001  total  includes  $38.2 
billion  in  expenditures  at  food  service  establishments 
(restaurants,  carry-outs,  caterers,  etc.);  $16.8  billion  in 
retail  sales  for  home  consumption;  and  $276.3  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 $28.6  billion  (in  value  added)  to  the  U.S.  Gross 
National  Product.

ALASKA  POLLOCK  AND  OTHER 
PACIFIC  TRAWL  FISH 

U.S.  landings  of  Pacific  trawl  fish  (Pacific  cod,  flounders, 
hake,  Pacific  ocean  perch,  Alaska  pollock,  and  rock- 
fishes)  were  4.4  billion  pounds  valued  at  $420.9  mil- 
lion— an  increase  of  9  percent  in  quantity  and  9  percent 
in  value  compared  with  2000. 

Landings  of  Alaska  pollock  increased  22  percent  to  3.2

Note:--Table  may  not  add  due  to  rounding.    Clams,  oysters  and  mussels  are  reported  as  meat  weights 
(excludes  shell)    while  other  identified  species  such  as  shrimp  and  finfishes  are  reported  as  whole  (live) 
weights.    Some  clam  and  oyster  aquaculture  production  are  reported  with  U.S.  commercial  landings.    Weights 
and  values  represent  the  final  sales  of  products  to  processors  and  dealers.    (1)  "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.        SW: — Saltwater.

and  recreational  fish  harvests.    Does  not  include  data  for  Alaska,  Hawaii  and  Texas  because  no  NMFS  recreational 
surveys  are  conducted  in  those  states.   Menhaden,  Pacific  Hake,  Atlantic  Sea  Herring  ,  Pacific  Sardine  and  Anchovy  were 
excluded  from  commercial  landings  because  they  are  industrial  fisheries  and  recreational  anglers  do  not   target  them.

DATA  COLLECTION.  Detailed  information  on 
marine  recreational  fishingis  required  to  support  a  variety 
of  fishery  management  and  development  purposes  and 
is  mandated  by  the  Sustainable  Fisheries  Act,  Public  Law 
94-265.  In  1979,  NMFS  began  the  comprehensive 
Marine  Recreational  Fishery  Statistical  Survey  (MRFSS). 
Although  the  recreational  harvest  is  only  about  6  percent 
of  the  total  U.S.  harvest  of  finfish  for  states  covered  by 
the  MRFSS  (see  MRFSS  coverage  on  page  28),  the  fishing 
activities  of  millions  of  marine  anglers  are  important  to 
monitor  because  they  are  directed  at  relatively  few 
species.  Data  collected  through  the  MRFSS  show  that 
recreational  fishing  significandy  impacts  the  stocks  of 
many  marine  finfish  species.  Recreational  catches  even 
surpass  commercial  landings  of  some  species  (see  figure 
on  preceding  page). 

METHODS.  The  MRFSS  consists  of  a  telephone 
survey  of  coastal  county  households  and  a  field  intercept 
survey  of  completed  angler  fishing  trips.  The  telephone 
survey  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  composi- 
tion 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, 
catch  used  for  bait,  and  catch  released  dead.  Whenever 
possible  MRFSS  field  interviewers  identify,  count,  weigh, 
and  measure  landed  fish  that  are  available  in  whole  form 
(catch  type  A).  Angler  reports  are  obtained  for  catch 
released  alive  (catch  type  B2)  and  for  all  other  harvested 
catch  (catch  type  Bl),  such  as  catch  released  dead,  used 
for  bait,  or  landed  as  fillets.  Catch  esdmates  are  stratified 
by  subregion,  state,  wave  (bimonthly  sampling  period), 
species,  fishing  mode  (private/rental  boat,  party/charter 
boat,  and  shore),  primary  area  fished,  and  catch  type.  In 
addition,  economic  data  are  obtained  and  estimates  of 
participation  are  produced. 

The  MRFSS  was  conducted  in  2001  in  all  coastal  states 
except  Texas  and  Alaska.  In  addition,  sampling  was 
conducted  in  the  U.S.  territory  of  Puerto  Rico,  and  a  pilot 
study  was  initiated  in  the  Hawaiian  Islands.  Sampling 
coverage  varies  across  the  time  series  (see  MRFSS  coverage 
on  page  28).  Detailed  information  and  access  to  the  data  are 
available  on  the  Fisheries  Statistics  and  Economics  web  page 
(http://www.st.nmfs.gov/stl/recreational/).  Data  from 
other  NMFS  and  state  surveys  (e.g.  southeast  head  boats, 


Texas,  California  Passenger  Fishing  Vessels,  Oregon/ 
Washington  ocean  boats,  Pacific  salmon,  Alaska)  are  not 
included  in  this  report. 

DATA  TABLES.  The  estimated  harvests  (numbers 
and  weight  of  fish)  for  the  continental  U.S.  (excluding 
Texas,  Alaska,  Hawaii,  Puerto  Rico,  and  the  U.S.  Virgin 
Islands)  are  presented  for  128  commonly  caught  species. 
Numbers  of  fish  harvested  and  released  alive  are  also 
presented  for  many  important  species  groups.  Esti- 
mated 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  presented  by  state. 

2001  MRFSS  DATA.  In  2001,  over  12  million  people 
made  84  million  marine  recreational  fishing  trips  to  the 
Atlantic,  Gulf  and  Pacific  coasts.  The  estimated  total 
marine  recreational  catch  was  442  million  fish,  of  which 
over  57  percent  were  released  alive.  The  estimated  total 
weight  of  harvested  catch  was  266  million  pounds.  The 
Adantic  coast  accounted  for  the  majority  of  total  marine 
angling  participation  (53  percent),  trips  (63  percent),  and 
catch  (55  percent).  The  Gulf  coast  (excluding  Texas,  see 
MRFSS  coverage  page)  accounted  for  25  percent  of 
participation,  27  percent  of  trips,  and  37  percent  of  the 
catch.  The  Pacific  coast  accounted  for  about  21  percent 
of  participants,  12  percent  of  trips,  and  8  percent  of  the 
catch.  Nationally,  most  (57  percent  in  numbers  of  fish) 
of  the  recreational  catch  came  from  inland  waters,  31 
percent  from  state  territorial  seas,  and  12  percent  from 
the  EEZ.  The  majority  of  Adantic,  Gulf  and  Pacific  trips 
fished  primarily  in  inland  waters. 

ATLANTIC.  In  2001,  over  6.4  million  marine  recre- 
ational fishing  participants  took  over  53  million  trips  and 
caught  a  total  of  more  than  244  million  fish.  Twenty-four 
percent  of  the  trips  were  made  in  east  Florida,  followed 
by  14  percent  in  New  Jersey,  13  percent  in  North 
Carolina,  9  percent  in  New  York,  9  percent  in  Massachu- 
setts, 8  percent  in  Virginia,  and  7  percent  in  Maryland. 
Together,  Connecticut,  Rhode  Island,  and  South  Caro- 
lina accounted  for  9  percent  of  the  trips  (3  percent  each), 
and  Delaware,  Maine,  Georgia,  and  New  Hampshire 
accounted  for  the  remaining  6  percent.  The  most 
commonly  caught  non-bait  species  (in  numbers  of  fish) 
were  summer  flounder,  Adantic  croaker,  bluefish,  black

sea  bass,  and  striped  bass.  The  largest  harvests  by  weight 
were  striped  bass,  dolphin,  bluefish,  summer  flounder, 
and  yellowfin  tuna. 

The  total  annual  catch  of  striped  bass  increased  steadily 
and  dramatically  from  1.8  million  fish  in  1990  to  17.5 
million  fish  in  1997.  After  increasing  from  14.1  million 
fish  in  1 999  to  nearly  1 9  million  fish  in  2000,  striped  bass 
catch  declined  slightly  to  15.6  million  fish  in  2001.  Over 
86  percent  of  the  striped  bass  caught  in  2001  were 
released  alive.  Annual  summer  flounder  catch  has 
increased  from  9.1  million  fish  in  1990  to  over  28  million 
fish  in  2001 .  Bluefish  catch  decreased  from  16-18  million 
in  1990-1991  to  levels  varying  between  9  and  13  million 
from  1 992  through  1 999,  but  reached  1 6  million  in  2000, 
and  over  20  million  in  2001 .  Black  sea  bass  catch,  which 
varied  between  6  and  16  million  fish  from  1990  through 
1999,  exceeded  18  million  in  2000,  but  returned  to 
around  16  million  fish  in  2001. 

The  species  most  commonly  caught  on  Atlantic  coast 
trips  that  fished  primarily  in  federally  managed  waters 
were  black  sea  bass,  dolphin,  Atlantic  cod,  summer 
flounder,  Atlantic  mackerel,  and  bluefish.  Thirty  percent 
of  the  total  Atlantic  catch  came  on  saltwater  trips  that 
fished  primarily  in  the  state  territorial  seas,  and  59  percent 
came  on  trips  that  fished  primarily  in  inland  waters. 

GULF  OF  MEXICO.  In  2001,  over  3  million  marine 
recreational  fishing  participants  took  over  22.8  million 
trips  and  caught  a  total  ofT63  million  fish  (excluding 
Texas).  About  72  percent  of  the  trips  were  made  in  west 
Florida,  followed  by  1 6  percent  in  Louisiana,  7  percent 
in  Alabama,  and  5  percent  in  Mississippi.  The  most 
commonly  caught  non-bait  species  (numbers  of  fish) 
were  spotted  seatrout,  red  drum,  white  grunt,  blue 
runner,  sand  seatrout,  Spanish  mackerel,  and  Atlantic 
croaker.  The  largest  harvests  by  weight  were  for  red 
drum,  spotted  seatrout,  sheepshead,  red  snapper,  Span- 
ish mackerel,  king  mackerel,  and  dolphin. 

Red  snapper  catch  has  varied  over  the  last  ten  years 
between  1.5  (1991  and  1995)  and  3.2  (1999)  million  fish, 
with  a  total  catch  of  over  2.6  million  in  2001.  King 
mackerel  catch  has  varied  between  420,000  (1999)  and 
750,000  (1991, 1996)  over  the  last  ten  years,  with  a  catch 
near  the  10-year  mean  (580,000)  in  2001.  Spotted 
seatrout  catch  has  varied  between  1 9  million  (1 993, 1 994, 
1996)  and  28  million  (2001)  over  the  last  ten  years,  with 


a  catch  of  over  20  million  in  2001.  Red  drum  catch 
remained  high,  falling  only  slightly  to  8.3  million  in  2001 
from  a  10-year  high  of  8.7  million  in  2000. 

The  species  most  commonly  caught  on  Gulf  of  Mexico 
trips  that  fished  primarily  in  federally  managed  waters 
were  white  grunt,  red  snapper,  black  sea  bass,  dolphin, 
and  greater  amberjack.  Thirty  percent  of  the  total  Gulf 
catch  came  on  trips  that  fished  primarily  in  the  state 
territorial  seas,  and  60  percent  came  on  trips  that  fished 
primarily  in  inland  waters. 

PACIFIC.  In  2001,  more  than  2.5  million  marine 
recreational  fishing  participants  took  over  9.6  million 
trips  and  caught  a  total  of  35  million  fish.  Sixty-five 
percent  of  the  trips  were  made  in  CA,  followed  by  23 
percent  in  WA,  and  12  percent  in  OR.  The  most 
commonly  caught  non-bait  species  (in  numbers  of  fish) 
were  surf  smelt,  barred  sand  bass,  kelp  bass,  black 
rockfish,  California  halibut,  white  croaker,  Pacific  barra- 
cuda, and  lingcod.  By  weight,  the  largest  harvests  were 
black  rockfish,  barred  sand  bass,  California  halibut, 
yellowtail,  Pacific  barracuda,  lingcod,  and  blue  rockfish. 

Total  annual  catch  of  lingcod,  which  has  varied  between 
240,000  (1995)  and  584,000  (2000)  fish  from  1993 
through  2000,  exceeded  580,000  fish  in  2001.  Most  of 
this  increase  was  due  to  fish  released  alive.  Total  black 
rockfish  catch,  which  has  varied  between  600,000  (1997) 
and  1.4  million  (2000)  fish  since  1993,  exceeded  1.2 
million  fish  in  2001. 

The  most  commonly  caught  Pacific  coast  species  in 
federally  managed  waters  were  barred  sand  bass,  kelp 
bass,  sanddabs,  Pacific  barracuda,  California  scorpionfish, 
California  halibut,  yellowtail  rockfish,  bocaccio,  and 
black  rockfish.  Fifty  percent  of  the  total  Pacific  catch 
came  from  trips  that  fished  primarily  in  the  state  territo- 
rial seas,  and  35  percent  came  from  trips  that  fished 
primarily  in  inland  waters. 

PUERTO  RICO.  In  2001,  about  220,000  marine 
recreational  participants  took  1 .4  million  trips  and  caught 
a  total  of  about  2.2  million  fish.  The  most  commonly 
caught  non-bait  species  (in  numbers  of  fish)  were  dol- 
phin (121,000  fish)  and  lane  snapper  (80,780  fish).  Esti- 
mated fishing  participation,  effort  and  catch  data  for 
Puerto  Rico  have  not  been  included  in  the  tables.

Coverage  of  Marine  Recreational  Fishery  Statistics  Survey 

1979-2001 

The  Marine  Recreational  Fishery  Statistics  Survey  provides  coverage  of  saltwater  sport  fishing  (including  estuarine  and 
brackish  water)  from  private/rental  boats,  charter  and  head  boats,  and  the  shore.  In  2001,  the  Survey  included  the 
Atlantic  coast  (Maine-East  Florida),  Gulf  coast  (Louisiana-West  Florida),  Pacific  coast  (Washington  through 
California),  Puerto  Rico  and  Hawaii.

Care  is  advised  when  comparing  catch  estimates  for  the  MRFSS  time  series  because  of  differences  in  sampling 
coverage. 

•  In  the  South  Atlantic  and  Gulf  sub-regions  (NC-LA)  the  MRFSS  has  not  collected  catch  data  from  head  boats 
since  1985,  so  estimates  for  these  sub-regions  now  only  include  charter  boats  in  the  for-hire  sector. 

•  Marine  recreational  fishing  in  Texas  is  monitored  by  the  Texas  Department  of  Parks  and  Wildlife  and  has  not  been 
surveyed  by  the  MRFSS  since  1985. 

•  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  and  has  never  been  surveyed  by  the  MRFSS. 

•  West  Pacific  U.S.  territories  have  not  been  surveyed  by  the  MRFSS  since  1981. 

•  Hawaii  was  not  surveyed  between  1981  and  2001. 

•  The  U.S.  Caribbean   was  not  surveyed  between  1981  and  2000. 

Historically,  only  about  5  percent  of  the  annual  recreational  catch  on  the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  is  taken  during  Wave 
1  (January  -  February).  Costs  to  sample  these  months  are  very  high  due  to  low  fishing  activity.  Therefore,  in  Jan/Feb 
of  1981  the  MRFSS  was  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  (GA  1985-1989,  SC  1988,  NC  1988- 
1992),  the  MRFSS  has  not  been  conducted  in  Jan/Feb  on  the  Atlantic  Coast  north  of  Florida  since  1980. 

Exceptions  to  MRFSS  Coverage: 

Nov/Dec  (ME  &  NH)  -  1987  to  present  Nov/Dec  (OR)  -  1994 

Mar/ Apr  (ME  &  NH)  -  1986  to  present  All  Waves  (CA-WA)  -  1990  to  1993

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

4.  Fish  products  and  preparations,  whether  or  not  in  airtight  containers;  5.  Crustacean  and  mollusk

Per  Capita  Consumption 


The  NMFS  calculation  of  per  capita  consumption  is 
based  on  a  "disappearance"  model.  The  total  U.S.  supply 
of  imports  and  landings  is  converted  to  edible  weight, 
and  decreases  in  supply  such  as  exports  and  inventories 
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  offish  and  shellfish  was  14.8 
pounds  (edible  meat)  in  2001.  This  total  was  0.4  pounds 
less  than  the  revised  15.2  pounds  consumed  in  2000.  Per 
capita  consumption  of  fresh  and  frozen  products  was 
10.3  pounds,  0.1  pound  more  than  2000. 

Fresh  and  frozen  finfish  accounted  for  5.7  pounds  while 
fresh  and  frozen  shellfish  consumption  was  4.6  pounds 
per  capita.  The  fresh  and  frozen  finfish  includes  approxi- 
mately 1.1  pounds  of  farm  raised  catfish. 


Consumption  of  canned  fishery  products  was  4.2  pounds 
per  capita  in  2001, 0.5  pounds  less  than  the  revised  4.7  in 
2000.  Cured  fish  accounted  for  0.3  pound  per  capita,  the 
same  as  in  previous  years.  Imports  of  edible  seafood 
made  up  76  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  2001  was  63.6  pounds,  up 
2.2  pounds  compared  with  2000. 

WORLD  CONSUMPTION.  The  FAO  calculation 
for  apparent  consumption  is  also  based  on  a  disappear- 
ance model.  The  three  year  average  considers,  on  a 
round  weight  equivalent  basis,  a  country's  landings, 
imports,  and  exports.  The  1997-99  data  indicates  that 
the  United  States  ranks  as  the  third  largest  consumer  of

Per  Capita  Consumption 


U.S.  Use 


Per  capita  use  of  commercial  fish  and  shellfish  is  based  on  the  supply  of  fisher}'  products,  both  edible  and 
nonedible  (industrial),  on  a  round  weight  equivalent  basis,  without  considering  the  beginning  or  ending  stocks, 
defense  purchases,  or  export. 

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.

Prices 


The  Exvessel  Price  table  is  an  index  of  changes  in  the 
relative  dockside  value  offish  and  shellfish  sold  by  fishing 
vessels.  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  1982  value  to  obtain  the 
final  index: 


(100  x  Current  price  X  1982  quantity) 
1982  Annual  value 


Index 


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  2000,  if  the  price  of  the  same  species  increased 
to  $1.07,  the  index  in  2001  would  be  107.

The  Magnuson-Stevens  Fishery 

Conservation  and  Management  Act 


The  Magnuson-Stevens  Fishery  Conservation  and  Man- 
agement Act,  Public  Law  94-265  as  amended  (Magnuson- 
Stevens  Act),  provides  for  the  conservation  and  manage- 
ment of  fisher}'  resources  within  the  U.S.  Exclusive 
Economic  Zone  (EEZ).  It  also  provides  for  fishery 
management  authority  over  continental  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  recognized  by  the  United  States. 

The  EEZ  extends  from  the  seaward  boundary  of  each 
of  the  coastal  States  (generally  3  nautical  miles  from  shore 
for  all  but  two  States)  to  200  nautical  miles  from  shore. 
The  seaward  boundaries  of  Texas,  Puerto  Rico,  and  the 
Gulf  coast  of  Florida  are  3  marine  leagues  (9  nautical 
miles).  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  the  EEZ.  The  process  applied  to  foreign 
fishing  has  been  described  in  prior  issues  of  this  publica- 
tion. As  U.S.  fishing  capacity  grew,  foreign  participation 
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  diminished  until,  in 
1991,  foreign  vessels  no  longer  were  permitted  to 
conduct  directed  fishing  in  the  EEZ.  This  marked  the 
achievement  of  one  of  the  objectives  of  the  Magnuson- 
Stevens  Act,  that  is,  the  development  of  the  U.S.  fishing 
industry  to  take  what  were  in  1976  underutilized  species, 
and  the  displacement  of  directed  foreign  fishing  effort  in 
the  EEZ. 

As  a  result  of  the  above,  there  has  been  very  little  total 
allowable  level  of  foreign  fishing  (TALFF)  issued  since 


1991.  NMFS  continues  to  maintain  certain  regulations 
pertaining  to  foreign  fishing  should  there  be  a  situation  in 
the  future  in  which  allowing  limited  foreign  fishing  in  an 
underutilized  fishery  would  be  of  advantage  to  the  U.S. 
fishing  industry. 

FMPs  and  PMPs 

Under  the  Magnuson-Stevens  Act,  eight  Regional  Fish- 
ery Management  Councils  are  charged  with  preparing 
Fishery  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 
implementation.  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. 

FISHERY  MANAGEMENT  PLANS  (FMPs) 

Under  section  304  of  the  Magnuson-Stevens  Act,  all 
Council-prepared  FMPs  must  be  reviewed  for  approval 
by  the  Secretary.  After  FMPs  have  been  approved  under 
section  304  of  the  Magnuson-Stevens  Act,  they  are 
implemented  by  Federal  regulations,  under  section  305 
of  the  Act.  As  of  December  31,  2001,  there  are  41  FMPs  in 
place.  Of  these,  two  are  Secretarial  FMPs  for  Atlantic 
highly  migratory  species.  The  39  FMPs  the  Councils 
prepared  are  listed  below.  The  FMPs  are  amended  by 
the  Councils  and  the  amendments  are  submitted  for 


97

approval  under  the  same  Secretarial  review  process  as 
new  FMPs.  Most  of  the  FMPs  listed  have  been  amended 
since  initial  implementation.

In  2001 ,  NMFS  published  853  documents  in  the  Federal 
Register  that  affected  domestic  fishing  issues  and  either 
proposed  or  implemented  fisher)'  management  actions 
(i.e.,  FMP  and  amendments).  The  documents  published 
included  hearing,  meeting,  correction,  and  proposed  and 
final  rule  documents.

INTERNATIONAL   REPORTS: 

The  Division  of  International  Science  and  Technology, 
NMFS,  prepares  assessments  of  major  fisheries  to 
support  priority  NMFS  programs.  These  reports  may 
be  of  interest  to  the  wider  fisher)'  community  as  they 
include  biological,  commercial,  and  technical  informa- 
tion of  potential  use  to  academicians,  industry,  and 
environmentalists. 

Swordfish: 

In  1997  work  was  completed  on  a  six-volume  study, 
culminating  a  five-year  research  project  to  compile  and 
analyze  information  on  every  key  swordfish  catching 
nation  in  the  world.  World  Swordfish  Fisheries,  is  the 
most  comprehensive  documentation  of  this  fisher)'  ever 
produced.  Each  volume  of  the  study  contains  informa- 
tion on  catch,  fishing  grounds,  fishing  fleets,  gear  and 
methods,  markets,  trade,  bycatch,  research,  international 
relations,  and  other  facets  of  the  fishery.  The  books  are 
carefully  documented  and  have  extensive  statistical  ap- 
pendices, graphics,  and  photographic  images  to  help 
explain  the  fishery  and  illustrate  key  trends.  Reports  on 
the  swordfish  fisheries  of  the  Adantic-coast  countries  of 
Latin  America  was  published  in  1999  and  reports  on  the 
Caribbean  islands  in  2001.  The  reports  were  published 
as  NOAA  Fisheries  Technical  Memoranda.  These  books 
are  available  from  the  NOAA  Library:  Steve  Quillen, 
NOAA  Library,  1315  East-West  Highway,  Silver  Spring, 
MD  20910  (Steve.QuiUen@noaa.gov)

ANADROMOUS  SPECIES.  These  are  species  of 
fish  that  mature  in  the  ocean,  and  then  ascend  streams  to 
spawn  in  freshwater.  In  the  Magnuson  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-

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.,

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.

PRODUCTS.  Estimated  amount  of  commercially 
landed  fish,  shellfish,  and  other  aquatic  animals  con- 
sumed by  the  civilian  population  of  the  United  States. 
Estimates  are  on  an  edible-weight  basis  and  have  been 
adjusted  for  beginning  and  ending  inventories  of  edible 
fishery  products.  Consumption  includes  U.S.  produc- 
tion of  fishery  products  from  both  domestically  caught 
and  imported  fish,  shellfish,  other  edible  aquatic  plants, 
animals,  and  imported  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

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.

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-

Glossary 


mulation  of  warm  water  off  South  America  which 
reduced  the  upwelling  of  nutrient-rich  water  necessary  to 
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.  Austria,  Belgium  and  Lux- 
embourg, Denmark,  Federal  Republic  of  Germany, 
Finland,  Greece,  France,  Ireland,  Italy,  Netherlands,

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  fisher}'  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

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.

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.

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  MFCMA  (Magnuson  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. 

MAGNU SON-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  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  Adantic,  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.

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, series  P-25,  published  by  the  U.S.  Bureau  of  the 
Census. 

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

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  (Lrv^E)  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  fisher}'  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  fisher}' 
markets  by  primary  wholesalers  (processors,  importers, 
and  brokers)  for  customary  quantities,  free  on  board 
(f.o.b.)  warehouse.

Federal  Inspection  Marks  for  Fishery  Products 

NATIONAL  FISHERY  PRODUCTS  INSPECTION  PROGRAM.  The  U.S.  Department  of  Commerce  (USDC),  National 

Marine  Fisheries  Service,  a  part  of  the  National  Oceanic  and  Atmospheric  Administration,  conducts  a  voluntary  seafood  inspection 

program  on  a  fee-for-service  basis.  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  services  are  available  nationwide  and  in  U.S.  territories  for  all  interested  parties. 

Consultative  services  are  provided  in  foreign  countries.  Inspection  and  certification  services  are  also  provided  for  imported  and 

exported  products.  The  USDC  Seafood  Inspection  Division  also  provides  HACCP  training,  plan  development,  implementation 

assistance,  and  verification  service  to  industry  (domestic  and  foreign)  for  the  purpose  of  demonstrating  compliance  with  FDA's 

HACCP  rule  (21  CFR  Parts  123  and  1240)  regarding  "Procedures  for  the  Safe  and  Sanitary  Processing  and  Importing  of  Fish  and 

Fishery  Products"  which  was  implemented  December  1 8, 1 997. 

USERS  OF  INSPECTION  SERVICES.  The  users  of  the  voluntary  seafood  inspection  service  include  vessel  owners,  processors, 

distributors,  brokers,  retailers,  food  service  operators,  exporters,  importers,  and  those  who  have  a  financial  interest  in  buying  and 

selling  seafood  products.  The  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  recommends  that  USDC  inspected  products  be  purchased  for  its  food 

feeding  programs.  The  USDC  APPROVED  LIST  OF  FISH  ESTABLISHMENTS  AND  PRODUCTS,  published  bi 

annually,  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  Division  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.  Grade  A  mark  indicates  that 

the  product  is  of  high  quality,  uniform  in  size,  practically  free  from  blemishes  and  defects,  in  excellent  condition  and  possessinggood 

flavor  and  odor. 

"PROCESSED  UNDER  FEDERAL  INSPECTION"  MARK  The  PUFI  mark  or  statement  signifies  that  the  product  has  been 

inspected  in  an  approved  facility  and  was  found  to  be  safe,  wholesome  and  properly  labeled  according  to  approved  specifications 

or  cntena.  The  language  within  the  PUFI  mark  has  been  amended  to  "Processed  Under  Federal  Inspection"  to  reflect  actual  inspection 

procedures  and  the  regulatory  requirements  for  use  of  the  mark. 

"LOT  INSPECTED"  MARK.  A  new  USDC  Lot  Inspected  mark  was  created  to  replace  the  "Officially  Sampled"  and  "Accepted 

Per  Specifications"  lot  inspection  marks  used  on  retail  labels.  The  latter  marks  were  no  longer  allowed/accepted  after  September  30, 

1 997.  The  use  of  the  new  mark  meets  the  needs  of  both  industry  and  consumers  by  conveying  that  the  products  bearing  the  mark 

have  been  examined  by  the  USDC  Program. 

"RETAIL"  MARK.  In  response  to  requests  made  by  industry,  a  new  mark  has  been  created  for  retail  or  food  service  establishments. 

Participants  qualify  for  use  of  the  "Retail  Mark"  by  receiving  the  USDC  HACCP-based  service  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. 


A 


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.  An  industry'  USDC-certified  employee  trained  in  HACCP 
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  HACCP-based  program.  The  HACCP  banner  must  be  used  as  an 
attachment  to  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.
