PREFACE

FISHERIES OF THE UNITED STATES. 1984

This publication is a preliminary report for 1984 on fisheries of the United States and foreign catches in the U.S. Fishery Conservation Zone (FCZ). This annual report provides timely answers to frequently asked questions for the previous year. All data in this publication are consistent with the provisions of the Federal Reports Act of 1942.

PRELIMINARY AND FINAL DATA

Data on U.S. commercial landings, foreign catches, employment, prices, and production of processed products are preliminary for 1984. Final data will be published in Fishery Statistics of the United States. Publication of monthly and annual state landings bulletins has been discontinued.

MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING

A section of this publication briefly describes the background and results of Marine Recreational Fishery Statistics Surveys. Data are presented on recreational catch in number by species, and fishing trips by area for 1981-82 surveys on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts.

SOURCES OF DATA

Information in this report came from many sources. Field offices of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), in cooperation with various States, compiled and collected data on U.S. commercial landings and processed fishery products. The NMFS Field Offices compiled data on the foreign catch from reports by designated foreign officials. The NMFS National Fishery Statistics Program in Washington, D.C., tabulated and prepared the data for publication. Sources of other data appearing in this publication are: U.S. Bureau of the Census, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Customs Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, and the countries fishing in the U.S. FCZ.

UNIT OF QUANTITY AND VALUE

As in past issues of this publication, the units of quantity and value are defined as follows: U.S. landings and foreign catch are shown in round weight (mollusk shells excluded), unless otherwise noted; quantities shown for U.S. imports and exports are in product weight, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of the Census, unless otherwise noted; the value of the U.S. domestic catch is exvessel (see Glossary); 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.

SUGGESTIONS

The National Fishery Statistics Program wishes to provide the kinds of data sought by users of fishery statistics, and welcomes any comments or suggestions that will improve this publication.

REVIEW

U.S. LANDINGS. Commercial landings (edible and

industrial) by U.S. fishermen at ports in the 50 States were 6.4 billion pounds (2.9 million metric tons) valued at $2.4 billion in I 984— an increase of 941,000 pounds (427 metric tons) in quantity, but a decrease of $5.0 million in value compared with 1983. Increased landings of clams, salmon, and shrimp helped offset the declines in other major species such as menhaden, anchovies, flounders, and rockf ishes. The 1984 average exvessel price per pound paid to fishermen of 37 cents was the same as they received in 1983. Finfish accounted for 85 percent of total landings but only 51 percent of the total value of finfish and shellfish.

Commercial landings by U.S. fishermen at ports outside the 50 States or transferred in the U.S. fishery conservation zone (FCZ) onto foreign vessels (joint ventures) were an additional 1.9 billion pounds (841,000 metric tons) valued at $287.3 million. This was a 45 precent or 574.0 million pound (260,000 metric tons) increase in quantity and a $56.3 million (24 percent) increase in value compared with 1983. Most of these landings consisted of tuna landed at canneries in Puerto Rico and joint venture catches.

Edible fish and shellfish landings in the 50 States were 3.3 billion pounds (1.5 million metric tons) in 1984— up 3 percent compared with 1 983. Landings of cods, crabs, flounders, and tuna decreased, but there were increases in clams, ocean perch, salmon, and shrimp. In 1984, domestic production was 39 percent and imports 61 percent of the total U.S. edible supply.

Landings for reduction and other industrial purposes were 3.1 billion pounds (1.4 million metric tons) in 1984— a decrease of 3 percent compared with 1983.

JOINT VENTURE CATCH IN THE U.S. FCZ. Joint venture catches by U.S. fishermen unloaded onto foreign vessels were 1.5 billion pounds (665,000 metric tons) valued at $79.0 million. This was a 53 percent increase over 1983, when 958.9 million pounds (435,000 metric tons) were caught, valued at $51.2 million. The major species were Alaska pollock, Pacific cod, and Pacific hake.

Joint venture catches of trawl fish off Alaska continued to increase in 1984 (up 66 percent) compared with 1983. Factors contributing to this expansion include the linkage of foreign directed fishery allocations to joint venture participation and the conversion of Alaskan shellfish vessels to trawlers.

FOREIGN CATCH IN U.S. FCZ. The foreign catch of fish (excluding tunas) and shellfish in the U.S. FCZ was nearly 1.4 million metric tons (3.0 billion pounds) in 1984, 4 percent more than in 1983 and 1 1 percent below the average for the preceding 5 years. As in other years, the U.S. FCZ off Alaska supplied the largest share of the foreign catch (96 percent) followed by the North Atlantic (3 percent) and California, Oregon, and Washington (I percent). A very small amount was harvested off Hawaii and the Pacific Islands.

Alaska pollock comprised 76 percent of the foreign catch; Pacific flounders, 14 percent; Pacific cod, 5 percent; and other fish and shellfish the remainder.

Japan continued as the leading nation fishing in the U.S. FCZ with a catch of 940.7 thousand metric tons, 69 percent of the total foreign catch. Catches by vessels of the Republic of Korea, the second leading nation fishing in the U.S. FCZ, were 274.5 thousand metric tons representing 20 percent of the catch in 1 984.

The foreign catch in the Pacific U.S. FCZ in 1984 was over 1.3 million metric tons, 59.6 thousand metric tons more than 1983. Over 90 percent of this catch was made in the Eastern Bering Sea, 9 percent in the Gulf of Alaska, and the remaining I percent was taken off, California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, and the Pacific Islands. Alaska pollock, 1.0 million metric tons (78 percent of the total), was the leading species followed by Pacific flounders, 188.8 metric tons (14 percent); and Pacific cod, 74.3 thousand metric tons (6 percent). Japan and the Republic of Korea were the major countries fishing this area in 1984 taking 91 percent of the total catch.

Since June 1978 Canadian authorities excluded almost all U.S. fishing vessels from Canadian waters, and United States authorities excluded almost all Canadian fishing vessels from U.S. waters. However, in the Pacific, halibut fishing continued under the United States-Canada Halibut Convention. In the Atlantic, vessels of both nations fished in a boundary region often referred to as the "disputed zone," until October 1984, when the International Court of Justice resolved the long-standing dispute establishing a line which crosses Georges Bank essentially mid-way between the U.S./Canadian claims. The data appearing on pages 21-30 have not been adjusted to reflect the Court's ruling.

Foreign catches in the North Atlantic U.S. FCZ in 1984 were 35.2 thousand metric tons, 5.7 thousand metric tons (14 percent) less than the 1983 catch when 40.9 thousand metric tons were taken. Canada continued as the leading country with 12.2 thousand metric tons (35 percent); European Economic Community nations (Italy and the Netherlands), second with 11.2 thousand metric tons (32 percent); and the German Democratic Republic, third with 5.5 thousand metric tons (16 percent). Squid catches amounted to 1 1.7 thousand metric tons (33 percent). Other species of significance were Atlantic mackerel, 9.5 thousand metric tons (27 percent); Atlantic cod, 5.8 thousand (16 percent); haddock, 1.5 thousand (4 percent); and sea scallops (meats), 2.0 thousand metric tons (6 percent).

U.S. VS. FOREIGN CATCH IN U.S. FCZ. The combined catch by U.S. and foreign vessels in the U.S. FCZ was 2.7 million metric tons in 1984— (up 10 percent) compared with 1983. The U.S. share was 50 percent of the total, about the same as 1 983.

WORLD LANDINGS. In 1983, the most recent year for which data are available, world commercial fishery landings were a record 76.5 million metric tons— an increase of 7 thousand metric tons (less than one tenth of one percent)

REVIEW

compared with 1982. Japan continued to be the leading nation with 15 percent of the total catch; the USSR, second with 13 percent; China, third with 7 percent; followed by the United States and Chile, both with more than 5 percent.

PRICES. The Index of Exvessel Prices for all Fish and Shellfish was 477. 3~a decrease of one percent from 1983. The index (1967 = 100) for edible fish and shellfish was 489.3— a decrease of 3 percent. The index for industrial fish was 315.6— a decrease of 2 percent compared with 1983.

Total export value of edible and nonedible fishery products of domestic origin was $948.8 million in 1984— a decrease of $72.7 million (7 percent) compared with 1983. United States firms exported 574.1 million pounds (260 thousand metric tons) of edible products valued at $842.3 million— a decrease of 27.8 million pounds (13 thousand metric tons) in quantity and $65.3 million in value compared with 1983. Exports of nonedible products were valued at $106.5 million, $7.3 million less than 1983 nonedible exports. The $79.0 million received for U.S.-flog vessel catches transferred onto foreign vessels in the U.S. FCZ in joint venture operations are not included in the export statistics.

PROCESSED PRODUCTS. The 1984 estimated value of the domestic production of edible and nonedible fishery products was $5.2 billion, $129.5 million more than the $5.1 billion in 1983. The value of edible products was $4.8 billion— an increase of $158.6 million (3 percent) compared with 1983. The value of industrial products was $364.5 million in 1984— a decrease of $29.2 million (7 percent) compared with 1983.

FOREIGN TRADE. The total import value of edible and nonedible fishery products was a record $5.9 billion in 1984- -an increase of $754.0 million (15 percent) compared with

1983. Imports of edible fishery products (product weight) were a record 2.5 billion pounds (I.I million metric tons) valued at a record $3.7 record billion in 1984— an increase of 67.5 million pounds (3 percent) in quantity and $115.6 million (3 percent) in value compared with 1983. Imports of nonedible (industrial) products also set a value record in

1984, with products valued at $2.1 billion entered— an increase of $638.4 million compared with 1983.

SUPPLY. The U.S. supply of edible fishery products

(domestic landings plus imports, round weight equivalent) was a record 8.5 billion pounds (3.9 million metric tons) in 1984— an increase of 85.0 million pounds (I percent) compared with the previous record supply in 1983. The change reflects an increase of 3 percent in domestic commercial landings, and an increase of less than one tenth of one percent in imports. The supply of industrial fishery products was 4.1 billion pounds (1.9 million metric tons) in 1984— an increase of 115.0 million pounds (3 percent) compared with 1983. Domestic commercial landings for industrial products of 3.1 billion pounds (1.4 million metric tons) was 83.0 million pounds less than the previous record of 3.2 billion pounds set in 1983.

PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION. U.S. consumption of fishery products was a record 13.6 pounds of edible meat per person in 1984, up 0.5 pound from 1983.

OTHER IMPORTANT FACTS

Menhaden landings in 1984 were 2.9 billion pounds (1.3 million metric tons) and was the most important species in quantity, accounting for 45 percent of the commercial fishery landings in the United States. Menhaden was eighth in value.

Salmon was the second most important in quantity and value.

IMPORTANT SPECIES

ALASKA POLLOCK AND OTHER PACIFIC TRAWL FISH. U.S. landings of Pacific trawl fish (Pacific cod, flounders, hake (Pacific whiting), Pacific ocean perch, Alaska pollock, and rockfishes) were 313.3 million pounds valued at $65.8 million— an increase of 4 percent in quantity, and 7 percent in value compared with 1983. Landings of Alaska pollock increased 688 percent to 24.0 million pounds, significantly higher than the 5-year overage. Much of the increase is attributable to Alaskan fishermen who had previously sought cod. Since the price of pollock (9 cents) was half that for Pacific cod (18 cents), fishermen had to catch larger amounts of pollock to cover their expenses.

Several of the Pacific trawl fisheries off California, Oregon, and Washington have been managed under an FMP since 1982. Resulting management regulations have influenced landings. For example, landings and value of rockfishes decreased to 85.6 million pounds (down 14 percent) and $21.8 million (down 2 percent) in 1984. Lower abundance, quotas and fishing trip limits in 1984 contributed to the lower landings.

ANCHOVIES. U.S. landings of anchovies were 17.8 million pounds—a decrease of 4.5 million pounds (20 percent) compared with 1983. California landed all but 22,000 pounds of the national total. Of this amount, 14.0 million pounds (79 percent) was used as bait. The remaining landings of 3.8 million pounds went into reduction plants for fish meal and oil. As in 1983, factors contributing to the lower landings were the lingering climatic effects of El Nino (see glossary), and stiff competition from substitutes in the reduction product market.

HALIBUT. U.S. landings of Atlantic and Pacific halibut

were 47.9 million pounds (round weight) valued at $25.4 million— an increase of 2.7 million pounds (6 percent), but a decrease of $15.3 million (38 percent) compared with 1983. The Pacific fishery accounted for all but 170,000 pounds of the 1984 total catch. The average exvessel price per pound in 1984 was 53 cents compared with 90 cents in 1983. In many areas, quotas were quickly surpassed in a period of days or weeks.

HERRING, SEA. U.S. commercial landings of sea herring were 178.5 million pounds valued at $25.9 million— a decrease of 2.0 million pounds (I percent) in quantity, and $18.1 million (41 percent) in value compared with 1983. Landings of Atlantic sea herring increased to 73.8 million pounds valued at $3.7 million— an increase of 22.5 million pounds (44 percent) in quantity and $1.0 million (37 percent) in value compared with 1983. Fixed gear fisheries, such as weirs and stop seines along the Maine coast, generally account for over half the landings. The NMFS scientists at the Northeast Fisheries Center (NEFC) report that abundance indices have shown only 2 average or above average year classes since 1976. Marked improvement in abundance was not expected in 1984, although export markets have stimulated enough fishing effort to drive landings upward. The average exvessel price in the Atlantic remained unchanged at about 5 cents per pound.

Landings of Pacific sea herring were 104.7 million pounds valued at $22.2 million— a decrease of 24.5 million pounds (19 percent) in quantity, and $19.1 million (46 percent) in value compared with 1983. The Alaskan landings of 95.2 million pounds decreased by 14.4 million (13 percent) compared with 1983. The average exvessel price per pound

of Pacific sea herring was 21 cents in 1984 compared with 32 cents in 1983.

JACK MACKEREL. Landings of jack mackerel in California declined in 1984 to 23.4 million pounds valued at $2.0 million— a decrease of 16.2 million pounds (41 percent) in quantity and $1.5 million (43 percent) in value compared with 1983. Landings continued to be well below the 5-year average. The 1984 average exvessel price per pound of 8 cents was similar to 1983.

MACKEREL, ATLANTIC. U.S. landings of Atlantic mackerel were 6.8 million pounds valued at $1.0 million— an increase of 417,000 pounds (6 percent) in quantity, but a decrease of $319,000 (24 percent) in value compared with 1983. New Jersey was the leading State for the fourth consective year with 2.2 million pounds (31 percent of the total catch); followed by Massachusetts, 1.8 million (26 percent), and Rhode Island, 1.2 million pounds (18 percent). The average exvessel price per pound in 1984 was 15 cents, compared with 21 cents in 1983.

In 1984, the total U.S and foreign catch in the Northwest Atlantic was estimated at 85 million pounds, of which the U.S. fishermen took only 13 percent. The future U.S. share of this fishery depends on the expansion of the domestic mackerel fishery, participation by U.S. vessels in joint ventures with foreign vessels, and the development of export markets for mackerel.

MACKEREL, PACIFIC. Landings of Pacific mackerel, managed under a State quota, were 93.4 million pounds valued at $7.6 million— an increase of 20.5 million pounds (28 percent) in quantity and $1.3 million (21 percent) in value compared with 1983. The 1984 average exvessel price per pound of 8 cents was about the same as in the previous 2 years.

MENHADEN. The U.S. menhaden landings were 2.9 billion pounds valued at $117.3 million— a decrease of 71.7 million pounds (2 percent) in quantity and $2.0 million (2 percent) in value compared with 1983. Landings decreased by 202.5 million pounds (22 percent) in the Atlantic States, but increased by 130.7 million pounds (6 percent) in the Gulf States compared with 1983. Menhaden are used primarily for the production of meal, oil, and solubles. Small quantities are used for bait and canned pet food.

Landings along the Atlantic coast were 724.2 million pounds valued at $32.1 million. Although spawning stock sizes have improved somewhat since the population crashed in the early I960's, the magnitude and distribution of current fishing effort will likely prevent short term landings from reaching much higher levels than at present according to NMFS scientists. Recent stock assessments indicated the Atlantic menhaden fishery suffers from growth overfishing. Gulf region landings were 2.2 billion pounds valued at $85.2 million. This catch slightly exceeds last year's record landings of 2.0 billion pounds. While recent Gulf landings are setting records, NMFS Southeast Fisheries Center scientists do not believe the fishery can sustain these levels of harvest, and landings will eventually be reduced.

NORTH ATLANTIC TRAWL FISH. In October 1984 the International Court of Justice announced its decision in the 20-year-old Gulf of Maine boundary dispute between the United States and Canada. The binding decision of the

vli

REVIEW IMPORTANT SPECIES

Court established a line that crosses Georges Bank essentially mid-way between the claims of the two Nations. Part of the northeastern half of Georges Bank previously fished by U.S. fishermen, especially the North Atlantic trawl fleet, is now under the legal jurisdiction of Canada.

North Atlantic landings of butterfish, Atlantic cod, cusk, flounders, haddock, red and white hake, Atlantic ocean perch, pollock, and whiting (silver hake) were 489.4 million pounds valued at $205.9 million— an increase of 43.8 million pounds (10 percent) in quantity, and an increase of $29.3 million (17 percent) in value compared with 1983. Of these species, flounders led in value, accounting for 60 percent of the total; followed by cod, 18 percent; and haddock, 9 percent.

Landings of Atlantic cod, which have been managed under a Fishery Management Plan (FMP) since 1977, were 96.8 million pounds in 1984, 9 percent below the 5-year average. Landings were expected to remain high over the next several years due to above average recruitment, but two factors may contribute to a further decline in 1985. Biologically, fishing mortality has markedly increased recently and is at record high levels. This may result in lower catch per unit effort despite above average recruitment. Economically, price competition from

groundfish imports has shifted North Atlantic trawl harvests away from traditional cod, haddock, and yellowtail (49 percent by weight in 1983, 33 percent in 1984), to high volume/low priced fisheries such as butterfish, pollock, and whiting (18 percent by weight in 1983, 23 percent in 1984). Yellowtail flounder have been managed under the same FMP. Landings during the I960's ranged from 58.0 to 83.0 million pounds, but by 1976 were only 38.0 million pounds. This species has been slow to recover from apparent overfishing. The 1984 landings of 39.3 million pounds were a 46 percent decline from 1983. If high discards of undersized fish and low recruitment continue, the prospect for further declines in landings is eminent. Haddock abundance is at or near historic lows with landings declining in 1984 to 26.0 million pounds (down 20 percent from 1983). Value decreased to $18.4 million (3 percent from 1983). Continued poor recruitment in recent years indicates that no improvement in haddock landings can be expected in the near future according to NMFS scientists.

percent) in 1984. The average exvessel price per pound was $2.34 in 1984, a substantial decrease from $2.65 in 1983.

The cause for the dramatic decline of king crabs is stiil being investigated. Research by NMFS Northwest and Alaska Fisheries Center scientists suggest that a combination of factors are responsible for the historically wide fluctuation in abundance and current low level. These factors include: fishing, reproductive failure and subsequently poor recruitment, high predation levels, disease, and perhaps environmental variations in temperature and wind patterns. While no one factor is sufficient to explain the decline, the consensus is that these elements have had a severe combined effect on population size. Biological evidence suggests that recovery of king crab stocks is unlikely before the end of the decade.

The average exvessel price per pound of meats in 1984 was $5.30 compared with $5.45 in 1983.

Sea scallop landings declined to the lowest level since 1975. According to NEFC scientists, sea scallop abundance remained at historically low levels while fishing effort remained high. For the first time in 5 years, more catch was taken by vessels fishing the Middle Alantic region than from Georges Bank (8.4 versus 6.8 million pounds). This represents a shift in activity to the Middle Atlantic region where substantial increases in the number and duration of fishing trips occurred. The sea scallop fishery has been managed under a Fishery Management Plan (FMP) since May 1982. Since the fishery now depends upon recruitment of new year classes, current management regulations prohibit the landings of meats averaging more than 35 to the pound.

The Pacific coast, the major producer of squid in 1982, only produced 2.2 million pounds (down 50 percent) in 1984 compared with 1983. California produced 1.2 million pounds (down 69 percent) of this total compared with 4.0 million pounds in 1983. The drastic change in landings on the Pacific coast was still due partially to the climatic effects of El Nino (see glossary) in 1983. One hypothesis by NMFS scientists suggests that squid larvae were dispersed too far north by currents associated with the El Nino warming trend. The average exvessel price per pound for squid went from 20 cents in I 983 to 23 cents in 1984.

PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION

PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION. U.S. per capita consumption of fish and shellfish was a record 13.6 pounds (edible meat) in 1984. This total was 0.5 pounds more than the 13.1 pounds consumed per capita in 1983. The change was due to increased consumption in fresh and frozen products and canned products categories.

Per capita consumption of fresh and frozen products registered a total of 8.3 pounds, up 0.3 pounds from the 1983 total. Fresh and frozen finfish consumption, which reached 5.3 pounds per capita in 1984, registered a slight increase due to record consumption of fillets and steaks (3.13 pounds per capita). The fresh and frozen finfish consumption includes approximately one-third pound per capita from domestic farm-raised catfish. Similarly, fresh and frozenshellf ish comsumption rose 0.2 pound per capita to 3.0 pounds in 1984. Record shrimp consumption (1.90 pounds per capita) accounted for most of this increase.

Consumption of canned fishery products was 5.0 pounds per capita in 1984, up 0.2 pounds from the 4.8 pounds in 1983. This rise came on the strength of the increase in canned tuna consumption, which registered 3.2 pounds per capita in 1984 compared to 3.1 pounds in 1983. Consumption of cured products remained steady at 0.3 pounds per capita.

In addition to consumption of commercially caught fish and shellfish, recreational fishermen catch and consume an estimated 3 to 4 pounds of edible meat per person.

Anchovy meal production in

1984 has been included with unclassified meal for reasons of confidentiality.

FISH SOLUBLES. Domestic production of fish solubles was 126,000 short tons, 32,500 short tons (20 percent) less than the 1983 production. Menhaden solubles amounted to I 14,700 short tons and accounted for 91 percent of the total production.

Imports of nonedible fishery products were valued at a record $2.1 billion — $638.4 million more than the $1.5 billion imported one year earlier. Total value of edible and nonedible products resulted in a record import value of $5.9 billion in 1984 — $754.0 million more than the previous

record in 1983, when $5.1 billion of fishery products were imported.

EXPORTS. U.S. exports of edible fishery products of domestic origin were 574.1 million pounds valued at $842.3 million, compared with 601.9 million pounds valued at $907.7 million exported in 1983.

Exports of nonedible products were valued at $106.5 million — $7.3 million less than the record $113.8 million exported in 1983. Although many items declined in quantity, higher values resulted in near record nonedible exports. Exports of menhaden oil amounted to 391.8 million pounds valued at $69.6 million, a decrease of 6.9 million pounds from the record quantity exported in 1983, but an increase in value of $11.5 million over 1983. Thus, menhaden oil exports accounted for 65 percent of the value of total nonedible exports in 1984. The total value of edible and nonedible exports was $948.8 million — a decrease of $72.7 million compared with 1983.

U.S. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHERIES

13

PRELIMINARY 1 984 DATA. The U.S. marine recreational finfish catch in I 984 (excluding Alaska, Hawaii, and Pacific coast salmon) was an estimated 420.6 million fish. These fish weighed a total of 653.3 million pounds and were taken on an estimated 72.8 million fishing trips. The estimated number of U.S. marine recreational fishermen has been relatively stable over the last few years at 1 7 million fishermen. Excluding catches of freshwater and industrial species (such as anchovies and menhaden), the recreational catch continued to comprise an estimated 30 percent of the total U.S. finfish landings used for food in 1 984. These preliminary 1 984 data will be finalized in a separate marine recreational fishery report to be published this summer.

DATA COLLECTION. Data on commercial fisheries have been collected for many years. Detailed statistical information on marine recreational fishing is also required to support a variety of fishery management and development purposes, including the objectives of the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act. However, the lack of a continuous or systematic collection of marine recreational fishery data had prevented the accomplishment of these goals. Therefore, NMFS began a new series of marine recreational fishery statistics surveys in 1 979. Surveys have been conducted in the following areas and years:

Atlantic and Gulf, 1 979 through 1 984 Pacific, mid- 1 979 through 1 984 Western Pacific, 1 979 through 1 98 1 Caribbean 1 979, 1 98 1

The survey is being conducted in 1 985 along the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts.

These surveys use an intercept survey of fishermen in the field and an independent telephone survey of households. Each component survey provides certain information that is combined to produce estimates of recreational catch, fishing effort and participation. Estimates are generated by subregion or State, species, and mode and area of fishing. In addition, information on catch rates and fish lengths and weights are obtained.

RESULTS. The following final 1 98 1 - 1 982 data and tables are excerpted from complete reports prepared for each survey area and year. Some tables may not add due to rounding. See the publications section at the back of this book to obtain copies of the complete reports.

The catch data show the total number of fish caught for the top twenty species groups in each survey area. Total number caught includes those fish brought ashore in whole form which were available for identification, weighing, and measuring as well as those not available for identification. This latter category includes those fish used for bait, discarded, filleted or released alive. Each species group may contain one or more species, genera, or families.

Several tables show the distribution of total catch by fishing mode or fishing area by subregion. The four fishing modes are: beach/bank, man-made structures (e.g., bridges, piers, jetties), party/charter boats, and private/rental boats. The fishing areas are: ocean 3 miles or less from land, ocean more than 3 miles from land, inland (sounds, rivers, bays), and unknown. However, ocean data for Texas and the Gulf coast of Florida are for ocean 10 miles or less from land and more than 10 miles from land. The 1 982 tables do not include Texas boat mode data.

The fishing trip tables indicate the estimated number of trips by coastal residents (generally residing within 25

miles of the coast), non-coastal residents of the subregion bordering saltwater, and non-residents.

Atlantic and Gulf. The 1 98 1 survey on the Atlantic and Gulf coast did not begin until March 1st because of budget and contractual delays. The totals will therefore be slightly underestimated. Historically, the catch in the January- February period has been about 10 percent of the annual total.

Atlantic croaker, bluefish, spot, saltwater catfishes, and winter flounder comprised more than one-third the catch in number in 1981. In 1982, summer flounder, black sea bass and spotted seatrout combined with bluefish and saltwater catfishes as the top five species in numbers caught. These five species also accounted for more than one-third of the 1982 total catch. Bluefish dominated the North and Mid-Atlantic catch in both years while black sea bass and spot were the largest catches in the South Atlantic. Spotted seatrout and saltwater catfishes were the most common species caught in the Gulf. These data are fairly consistent with the results obtained in the 1979-1980 surveys (See Fisheries of the U.S., 1983).

The dominant mode of fishing in 1981 and 1982 was from private and rental boats (48 percent and 44 percent of the total catch, respectively). This trend was generally true for the top five species in each year with the exception of bluefish and black sea bass in 1982 when the majority of catch was from party and charter boats. Spot was the most common species caught by the shore modes of fishing.

Nineteen percent of the total catch in 1981 and 1982 was made in the Fishery Conservation Zone (FCZ), the principal area of NMFS fishery management authority. However, for some species (e.g., black sea bass, king mackerel, red snapper) up to 80 percent of the catch was made in the FCZ.

Coastal residents accounted for almost two-thirds of the trips made in 1981 and 1982. The proportion of trips made by non-resident fishermen was highest in the Gulf of Mexico subregion (30-31 percent). Total trips in the Gulf of Mexico exceeded all other subregions in both years.

Pacific. In 1981 and 1982, rockfishes, Pacific mackerel, surf smelt, and white croaker were the most prevalent species caught. California was responsible for at least three-quarters of the total annual catch in each year. Data on salmon were not included in the NMFS survey as a result of a cooperative arrangement with the Pacific coast States. These States had ongoing salmon data collection efforts which estimated 1.0 - I.I million salmon caught per year during 1981-1982.

The private - rental mode (35 percent) accounted for the most fish caught in 1981, but was surpassed by the party/charter mode (42 percent) in 1982. The dominant shore mode species were smelts and Pacific mackerel. Rockfishes were most often caught in the boat modes.

The majority of the Pacific coast catch was made in the ocean 3 miles or less from shore (64 percent in 1981, 57 percent in 1982). This was higher than on the Atlantic and Gulf coast in 1981-1982 where 39 and 49 percent, respectively, of the catch came from this area.

Fifteen to 17 percent of the total U.S. estimated trips were made on the Pacific coast. The overwhelming majority of trips were made by coastal county residents.

Note:--There are 2,204.6 pounds in a metric ton. Prior to 1970, the world commercial catch of whales and seals is excluded. For the years 1970-1981, data for marine mammals and aquatic plants are excluded. There is a revision in the total world commercial catch back to 1970 as published in FAO Yearbook of Fishery Statistics, Vol. 48 and 50. However, prior to 1974, data on freshwater and marine catches were not revised. Therefore, for the years 1970 to 1973, data will not add to the grand total.

Note:--Data on imports and exports cover the international trade of 158 countries. The

total value of exports is consistently less than the total value of imports, probably

because charges for insurance, freight, and similar expenses were included in the import

value but not in the export value. The seven fishery commodity groups covered by this

table are: 1. Fish, fresh, chilled or frozen; 2. Fish, dried, salted, or

smoked; 3. Crustaceans and mollusks, fresh, frozen, dried, salted, etc.; 4. Fish products

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

products and preparations, whether or not in airtight containers; 6. Oils and fats, crude

or refined, of aquatic animal origin; and 7. Meals, solubles, and similar animal foodstuffs of aquatic animal origin.

PRICES INDEXES OF EXVESSEL PRICES

73

The tables that follow show indexes of exvessel prices prepared by the National Marine Fisheries Service. Most of the prices used in calculating the "Indexes of Exvessel Prices for Fish and Shellfish" are based on monthly landings and value data. In a few cases, prices are obtained from Fishery Market News Reports and Market News Offices. The index for each species is calculated by multiplying the current monthly price by the total quantity caught in 1967 (the base year) to obtain a value for the current month. That value is then divided by the 1967 average monthly value to obtain the final index:

(Current price X 1967 quantity) = Index for each species 1967 average monthly value

To calculate the index for salmon, tuna, New England finfish, and other shellfish, the current monthly values for each of these species are added together and divided by

the aggregate 1967 average monthly values for the group. To calculate monthly indexes for edible finfish, edible shellfish, edible fish, industrial fish, and all fish, the index number for each species is multiplied by a factor representing its importance in the total exvessel value of all species of fish and shellfish for the period 1966-70; the sum of these products is the index number for the group of species.

Each index number calculated for years other than the base year of 1967 measures price changes from the reference period (1967) which equals 100. An increase of 85 percent from the reference period in the index, for example, is shown as 185.0. This change can also be expressed in dollars, as follows: The price of a species of fish that sold in the United States for $1.00 per pound in 1967 has increased to $1.85 per pound.

PER CAPITA USE

Per capita use of commercial fish and shellfish is based on the supply of fishery products, both edible and nonedible (industrial), on a round weight equivalent basis, without considering beginning or ending stocks, defense purchases, or exports (see page 62 ).

Per capita use figures are not comparable with per capita consumption data (see page 81 ). 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.

(1) Data include U.S. commercial landings and imports of both edible and nonedible (industrial) fishery products on a round-weight basis. "Total supply" is not adjusted for beginning and ending stocks, defense purchases, or exports.

(2) Domestic landings data used in calculating these data are preliminary.

Note:--From 1970 through 1980, population and per capita utilization data were revised to reflect the results of the 1980 census.

PER CAPITA 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 beginning and ending inventories, and exports, divided by the civilian population of the United States as of July I of each year.

(1) Resident population for 1909 to 1929 and civilian resident population for 1930 to date.

(2) Fresh and frozen fish consumption from 1910 to 1928 is estimated. Beginning in 1973, data include consumption of artificially cultivated catfish.

(3) Canned fish consumption for 1910 to 1920 is estimated. Beginning in 1921, it is based on production reports, packer stocks, and foreign trade statistics for individual years.

(4) Cured fish consumption for 1910 to 1928 is estimated.

(5) Data for 1909 estimate based on the 1908 census and foreign trade data.

(6) Domestic landings data used in calculating these data are preliminary.

*Record .

Note:--These consumption figures refer only to consumption of fish and shellfish entering commercial channels, and they do not include data on consumption of recreati onal ly caught fish and shellfish which since 1970 is estimated to be between 3 to 4 pounds (edible meat) per person annually. The figures are calculated on the basis of raw edible meat, i.e. excluding bones, viscera, shells, etc. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) consumption figures for red meats and poultry are based on the retail weight of the products, as purchased in retail stores. USDA estimates the net edible weight to be about 70-95 percent of the retail weight, depending on the cut and type of meat. From 1970 through 1980, data were revised to reflect the results of the 1980 census.

THE MAGNUSON FISHERY CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT ACT

The Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MFCMA), Public Law 94-265 as amended, provides for the conservation and exclusive management of all fishery resources within the U.S. fishery conservation zone (FCZ) except highly migratory species of tuna. It also provides for exclusive management authority over continental shelf fishery resources and anadromous species beyond the U.S. FCZ, except during the time they are found within any 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 U.S. FCZ extends from the seaward boundaries of the territorial sea (3 nautical miles from shore for all but two States) to 200 nautical miles from shore. The seaward boundaries of Texas, Puerto Rico, and the Gulf Coast of Florida are 3 marine leagues (9 nautical miles).

GOVERNING INTERNATIONAL FISHERY AGREEMENTS

Under the MFCMA, the U.S. Department of State, with cooperation from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) of the U.S. Department of Commerce, negotiates a Governing International Fishery Agreement (GIFA) with any foreign country wishing to fish within the U.S. FCZ. After the GIFA is signed, it is transmitted by the President to the Congress for review.

FOREIGN FISHING PERMIT

After a GIFA is in force, the foreign nation submits a vessel permit application for each vessel to the U.S. Department of State. The U.S. Department of State provides copies of the application to the Congress, the U.S. Coast Guard, the appropriate Regional Fishery Management Council, and to the Assistant Administrator for Fisheries of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) with recommendations. The NMFS also receives recommen- dations from the Regional Fishery Management Councils and the U.S. Coast Guard, as well as the general public.

The Assistant Administrator for Fisheries reviews all recommendations pertinent to the application and, after consultation with the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Coast Guard, may approve the application. The conditions and restrictions on the approval of the application are sent to the foreign nation through the U.S. Department of State, and must be accepted by the nation before a permit is issued.

FEES

Foreign nations engaged in fisheries subject to U.S. jurisdiction are charged permit fees, a poundage fee, a foreign fee surcharge, and an observer fee.

The permit fees in 1 984 recovered costs of issuing permits, based upon a standard administrative charge of $86 for each foreign vessel application.

Collection from 1 984 poundage fees were scheduled to increase by 1. 03 times above the 1 983 fees.

A surcharge is used to capitalize a fund to compensate U.S. fishermen operating in the U.S. FCZ whose vessels or gear are lost or damaged because of conflicts with foreign vessels. The surcharge on poundage and permit fees was waived in 1 984 because the fund was fully capitalized.

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

FOREIGN ALLOCATIONS

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

Each assessment of OY and each assessment of the anticipated U.S. harvest is reviewed during each fishing season. Adjustments to TALFFs are based on updated information relating to status of stocks, estimated and actual performance of domestic and foreign fleets, and other relevant factors.

FMPs and PMPs

Under the Magnuson Act, eight Regional Fishery Management Councils are charged with preparing Fishery Management Plans (FMPs) for the fisheries needing management under their jurisdiction. After the Councils develop FMPs which cover domestic and foreign fishing efforts, the FMPs are submitted to the Secretary of Commerce for approval and implementation. The

Department, through NMFS agents and the U.S. Coast Guard, is responsible for enforcing the law and regulations.

The Secretary of Commerce is also empowered to prepare plans. Where no FMP exists, Preliminary Fishery Management Plans (PMPs), which only cover foreign fishing efforts, are prepared by the Secretary for each fishery for which a 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 plan covers domestic and foreign fishing.

As of January I, 1 985, seven Preliminary Fishery Management Plans (PMPs) were in effect, many of which have been amended since first being implemented.

Fishery Management Plans (FMPs)

Under section 304 of the Magnuson Act, all Council prepared Fishery Management Plans must be reviewed by the Secretary of Commerce. As of January 1 , 1 985, no new FMPs were undergoing the Secretarial Review process.

After FMPs have been approved under Section 304 of the Magnuson Act, they are implemented with federal regulations, under Section 305 of the Act.

As of January I, 1985, 22 FMPs have been implemented, many of which have been amended several times since initial implementation. Plans demarked with an asterisk (*) were newly implemented in the last year.

The National Fisheries Institute, a national trade association of seafood processors, brokers, importers, and buyers, in cooperation with and under contract to the National Marine Fisheries Service, has prepared a series of economic profiles of the U.S. seafood processing industry.

These profiles will serve as a primer for regulatory and policy analysts who may not be familiar with the intricacies of seafood processing and of economic con- straints facing seafood processors, who are predominately small businessmen.

They present the business world of the seafood processor from an intergrated perspective, and address the resource, harvesting, processing, and marketing practices and constraints. The text is designed for the general reader and details are given only to illustrate the complexity of the industry. A thorough treatment of many topics is intentionally avoided and technical references are kept to a minimum. However, sufficient statistical data and references are provided to support economic analyses and further study.

GLOSSARY

ANADROMOUS SPECIES. These are species of fish fhat mafure in the ocean, and then ascend streams to spawn in freshwater. In the MFCMA, these species include, but are not limited to, Atlantic and Pacific salmons, steelhead trout, and striped bass. See 42 FR 60682, Nov. 28, 1977.

BOAT, OTHER. Commercial fishing craft not powered by a motor, e.g., rowboat or sailboat, having a capacity of less than 5 net tons. See motorboat.

BREADED FISH PRODUCTS. Sticks and portions or other forms of fish or shellfish coated with a non-leavened mixture containing cereal products, flavorings, and other ingredients. Breaded products are sold raw or partially cooked.

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.

CURED FISHERY PRODUCTS. Products preserved by drying, pickling, salting, or smoking. Do not include canned, frozen, irradiated, or pasteurized products. 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 products are cured with smoke or a combination of smoking and drying or salting.

EL NINO. This anomalous ocean warming of the eastern Equatorial Pacific occurs at time intervals varying from 2- 10 years. El Nino conditions in 1982-83 resulted in an accumulation 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, ana migrations of fish populations.

EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY (EEC). Belgium and Luxembourg, Denmark, Federal Republic of Germany, Greece, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, and United Kingdom.

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, jars, or other containers, which are hermetically sealed and heat-sterilized. Canned fishery products may include milk, vegetables, or other products. Most, but not all, canned fishery products 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. Esti- mated amount of commercially landed fish, shellfish, and other aquatic animals consumed 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. production 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.

EXVESSEL PRICE. Price received by the harvester for fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals.

"FISH AND CHIPS." This United States fisheries policy

links foreign fishing privileges in the U.S. FCZ to foreign country contributions to the development of the U.S. fishing industry. These include reductions of foreign tariff and non- tariff barriers that restrict importation of fishery products, and other cooperation in advancing opportunities for fishery trade. This policy was incorporated into the foreign nation species allocation process as a matter of law by the 1980 amendments to the Magnuson Act.

FISH BLOCKS. Regular fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of fillets or pieces of fillets cut or sliced from fish. Minced fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of minced flesh produced by a meat and bone separating machine.

FISH FILLETS. The sides of fish that are either skinned or have the skin on, cut lengthwise from the backbone. Most types of fillets are boneless or virtually boneless; some may be labeled as "boneless fillets."

FISH MEAL. A high-protein animal feed supplement made by cooking, pressing, drying, and grinding fish or shellfish.

FISH OIL. An oil extracted from body (body oil) or liver (liver oil) of fish and marine mammals; mostly a byproduct of fish meal production.

CONTINENTAL SHELF FISHERY RESOURCES. These are living organisms of any sedentary species that at the har- vestable are stage either (a) immobile on or under the seabed or (b) unable to move except in constant physical contact with the seabed or subsoil of the continental shelf. The MFCMA 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.

FISH PORTION. A piece of fish 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 "condensed fish solubles."

GLOSSARY

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 I- 1/2 ounces with the largest dimension at least three times that of the next larger dimension. A fish stick is generally cut from a fish block.

FISHING CRAFT, COMMERCIAL. Boats and vessels engaged in capturing fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals for sale.

FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (FMP). A plan developed by a Regional Fishery Management Council to manage a fishery resource pursuant to the MFCMA.

FULL-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who receives more than 50 percent of their annual income from commercial fishing activities, including port activity, such as vessel repair and re-rigging.

GROSS REGISTERED TONNAGE (GRT). The gross registered tonnage of a vessel is the internal cubic capacity of all space in and on the vessel that is permanently enclosed, with the exception of certain permissible exemptions. GRT is expressed in tons of 100 cubic feet.

GROUNDFISH. Broadly, fish that are caught on or near the sea floor. The term includes a wide variety of bottomf ishes, rockfififhes, and flatfishes. However, NMFS sometimes uses the tefm in a narrower sense. In import statistics shown in "Fishelries of the United States," the term applies to the following species: cod, cusk, haddock, hake, pollock, and Atlantic Ocean perch.

JOINT VENTURE. An operation authorized under the MFCMA in which a permitted foreign vessel receives fish in the U.S. FCZ from a U.S. vessel. 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.

MANAGEMENT ACT. Public Law 94-265, as amended, (MFCMA). The 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. The MFCMA established the U.S. fishery conservation zone (FCZ) and a means to control foreign and certain domestic fisheries through PMPs and FMPs. Within the U.S. FCZ, the United States has exclusive management authority over all fish (meaning finfish, mollusks, crustaceans, and all other forms of marine animal and plant life other than marine mammals, birds, and highly migratory species of tuna). The Act provides further exclusive management authority beyond the U.S. FCZ 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.

INDEXES OF EXVESSEL PRICES. Indexes of exvessel prices in this report are calculated by averaging prices for the various species of fish. The weight assigned to each species represents its importance in the total exvessel value of all species in 1966-70. Detailed data are aggregated to obtain indexes for groups of species. Each index measures price changes from 1967, the reference period, which is designed as 100. An increase of 85 percent from the reference period in the index, for example, is shown as 185.0.

MARINE RECREATIONAL CATCH. Quantities of finfish,

shellfish, and other living aquatic organisms caught, but not necessarily brought ashore, by marine recreational fishermen.

MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING. Fishing for pleasure, amusement, relaxation, or home consumption. If part or all of the catch is sold, the monetary returns constitute an insignificant part of the person's income.

INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS. Items processed from fish, shellfish, or other aquatic plants and animals that are not consumed directly by humans. These items contain products from seaweeds, fish meal, fish oils, fish solubles, pearl essence, shark and other aquatic animal skins, and shells.

INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION FOR THE NORTHWEST ATLANTIC FISHERIES (ICNAF). This convention, which entered into force on July 3, 1950, was for the investigation, protection, and conservation of the fishery resources of the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. In 1975, there were 18 member nations. The United States withdrew from ICNAF on December 31, 1976, because continued adherence to the convention was deemed incompatible with the extension of U.S. fishery management jurisdictions to 200 miles under the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976. See Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO).

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.

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.

NORTHWEST ATLANTIC FISHERIFS ORGANIZATION (NAFO). This convention, which entered into force January "T, 1979, replaces ICNAF. NAFO provides a forum for continued multilateral scientific research and investigation

GLOSSARY

of fishery resources of the Northwest Atlantic. NAFO will manage fishery resources that occur beyond the limits of coastal nations fishery jurisdiction in the northwest Atlantic, and will ensure consistency between NAFO management measures in this area and those adopted by the coastal nations within the limits of their fishery jurisdiction.

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.

MOTORBOAT. A motor-driven commercial fishing craft having a capacity of less than 5 net tons. See "boat, other."

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

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, shall be that portion of the optimum yield of such fishery which will not be harvested by vessels of the United States, as determined by provisions of the MFCMA.

U.S. FISHERY CONSERVATION ZONE (FCZ). The MFCMA defines this zone as contiguous to the territorial sea of the United States and extending seaward 200 nautical miles measured from the baseline from which the territorial sea is measured.

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

PART-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who receives less than 50 percent of their annual income from commercial fishing activities.

U.S.-FLAG VESSEL LANDINGS. Includes landings by all U.S. fishing vessels regardless of where landed as opposed to landings at ports in the 50 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.

PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION. Consumption of edible 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).

fishery products in the United States divided by the total civilian population. In calculating annual per capita consumption, estimates of the civilian resident population of the United States on July I of each year are used. These estimates are taken from current population reports, 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.

USE OF FISHERY PRODUCTS. Estimated disappearance of

products both edible and basis without considering

the total supply of fishery

nonedible on a round-weight

beginning or ending stocks, exports, military purchases, or

shipments to U.S. territories

PRELIMINARY FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (PMP). The Secretary of Commerce prepares a PMP whenever a foreign nation with whom the United States has made a Governing International Fishery Agreement (GIFA) submits an application to fish in a fishery not managed by a FMP. A PMP is replaced by an FMP as soon as the latter is implemented.

RETAIL PRICE. The price of fish and shellfish sold to the final consumer by food stores and other retail outlets.

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. Prices in this report generally are those received at principal fishery markets by primary wholesalers (processors, importers, and brokers) in customary quantities, free on board (f.o.b.) warehouse.

Federal Inspection Marks For Fishery Products

FISHERY PRODUCTS ARE VOLUNTARILY INSPECTED. Beef and poultry, as well as many other perishable food items, are federally inspected at various stages of processing to ensure buyers that the product is safe, wholesome, and acceptable. Fishery products have no similar mandatory Federal inspection program; however, the U.S. Department of Commerce (USDC) provides a voluntary inspection program for fishery products. Seafood processors, packers, brokers, and users who are interested in having USDC inspect their products may subscribe voluntarily to the program. Users of the service pay for USDC inspection which evaluates their raw materials, ensures the hygienic preparation of products, and certifies the final quality and condition of the product. The USDC inspector functions as an objective observer in evaluating processing techiques and product quality and condition. Products packed in plants under USDC inspection can carry marks for easy consumer identification.

FEDERAL INSPECTION MARKS.

Federal inspection marks are official marks approved by the Secretary of Commerce and authorized for use on brand labels of fishery products. When displayed on product labels, these marks signify that inspectors licensed by the Department of Commerce inspected, graded, and certified the products as having met all the requirements of inspection regulations, and have been produced in accordance with official U.S. grade standards or approved specifications.

WHAT DO THE INSPECTION MARKS

MEAN? The distinctive inspection marks are symbols that signify two distinct but related functions in guiding the consumer to safe, wholesome products produced in a sanitary environment and packed in accordance with uniform quality standards under

the supervision of the U.S. Department of Commerce's voluntary inspection service. The functions symbolized by each mark follow:

"U.S. GRADE" MARK. Grade" mark signifies that:

The "U.S.

1. The product is clean, safe, and whole- some.

2.

4.

The product is of a specified quality, identified by the appropriate U.S. Grade designation, as determined by a federally-licensed inspector in ac- cordance with established require- ments in U.S. Grade Standards.

The product was produced in an acceptable establishment with proper equipment and in an appropriate processing environment as required by food control authorities.

The product was processed under su- pervision by federally-licensed food inspectors and packed in accordance with specific Good Manufacturing Practice Requirements.

5. The product is truthfully and ac- curately labeled as to common or usual name, optional ingredients, and quantity.

"PACKED UNDER FEDERAL

INSPECTION" MARK. "Packed Under Federal Inspection" may be displayed as an official mark or as an official statement on the product label. The mark or statement signifies that the properly labeled product is clean, safe, and wholesome and has been produced

in an acceptable establishment with appropriate equipment under the supervision of federally-licensed in- spectors, the product has not been graded as to a specific quality level; rather, it is an acceptable commercial quality as determined by Federal inspectors in accordance with approved standards or specifications.

Financing For Fishing Vessels

Two National Marine Fisheries Service programs are available for financing fisheries production equipment.

The Fishing Vessel Obligation Guarantee Program is available for financing up to 87Yi percent of the cost of constructing, reconstructing, or reconditioning fishing vessels and fisheries shoreside facilities. Maturities of 15 to 25 years are available.

The long-term financing available under this program allows debt service of equipment construction or refurbishing costs to be spread over a period of time more consistent with the economics of fisheries operations. Down payments are low and interest costs are reasonable.

This financing program compensates for the fishing industry's inadequate access to normal private markets for long-term debt capital.

The Fishing Vessel Capital Construction Fund Program allows fishing vessel owners to defer payment of Federal tax on any portion of income earned from the operation of fishing vessels of at least 2 net tons when that income is reserved for payment toward the cost of vessel construction or reconstruction. This provides an interest-free loan from the U.S. Government equal to the Federal taxes which otherwise would have been paid on vessel income.

Deferred taxes are eventually repaid to the U.S. Government through a reduction in the depreciation allowed on vessels constructed or reconstructed with tax deferred funds. The "interest-free loan" character of the tax deferral, thus, continues through the depreciable life of the vessel.

This tax-deferral program compensates for vessel owner's general lack of access to the equity capital market by reducing the amount which must be initially borrowed from conventional sources to finance vessel construction or reconstruction.

Several other programs are available. One compensates for fishing gear which has been damaged or destroyed under certain circumstances; another indemnifies against seizure by foreign governments; and one compensates for gear damage which has been caused by Outer Continential Shelf energy activities.
