Gutierrez, Secretary National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Jr., Vice Admiral, U.S. Navy (Ret.), Under Secretary National Marine Fisheries Service William T. Hogarth, Ph.D., Assistant Administrator for Fisheries Preface FISHERIES OF THE UNITED STATES, 2005 This publication is a preliminary report for 2005 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 Division in Silver Spring, MD, managed the collection and compilation of recre- ational statistics, in cooperation with various States and Interstate Fisheries Commissions, and tabulated and prepared all data for publication. Sources of other data appearing in this publication are: U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Customs Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the Food and Agricul- ture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. PRELIMINARY AND FINAL DATA Data on U.S. commercial landings, employment, prices, production of processed products, and recreational catches are preliminary for 2005. Final data will be published in other NMFS Current Fishery Statistics publications. The Fisheries Statistics Division of NMFS takes this opportunity to thank states, industry, and foreign nations who provided the data that made this publication pos- sible. Program leaders of the field offices were: Gregory Power for the New England, Middle Atlantic, and Chesapeake; Scott Nelson, U.S. Geological Survey, Great Lakes States; David Gloeckner, Guy Davenport, and Jay Boulet for the South Atlantic and Gulf States; Trisha Culver, for California; David Hamm, for Hawaii and Pacific Islands; William Despit, data extracted from PacFIN for Oregon and Washington; and Robert Ryznar and Camille Ruse of the Alaska Fisheries Infor- mation Network for Alaska. NOTES The time series of U.S. catch by species and distance from shore included in this year's "Fisheries of the U.S." is estimated by the National Marine Fisheries Service. As in past issues of this publication, the units of quantity and value are defined as follows unless otherwise noted: U.S. landings are shown in round weight (except mol- lusks which are in meat weight) ; quantities shown for U.S. imports and exports are in product weight, as reported by the U.S. Bureau of the Census; the value of the U.S. domestic commercial landings is exvessel; in the Review Section on important species, deflated exvessel prices are shown. The deflated value was computed using the Gross Domestic Products Implicit Price Deflator using a base year 2000; the value for U.S. imports is generally the market value in the foreign (exporting) country and, therefore, excludes U.S. import duties, freight charges and insurance from the foreign country to the United States. The value for exports is generally the value at the U.S. port of export, based on the selling price, including inland freight, insurance, and other charges. Countries and territories shown in the U.S. foreign trade section are established for statistical purposes in the Tariff Schedules of the United States Annotated (International Trade Commission) and reported by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. SUGGESTIONS The Fisheries Statistics Division wishes to provide the kinds of data sought by users of fishery statistics, and welcomes comments or suggestions that will improve this publication.

Finfish accounted for 88 percent of the total landings, but only 47 percent of the value. The 2005 average exvessel price paid to fishermen was 41 cents compared to 39 cents in 2004. 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 1.5 million metric tons in 2005 and comprised more than 35 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 (TWP) agreements (see glossary) provided an additional 132.3 million pounds (60,000 metric tons) valued at $57.6 million. This was a decrease of 20 percent, or 33.0 million pounds (1 5,000 metric tons) in quantity and $14.4 million (20 percent) in value compared with 2004. Most of these landings consisted of tuna, and swordfish landed in American Samoa and other foreign ports. Edible fish and shellfish landings in the 50 states were 8.0 billion pounds (3.6 million metric tons) in 2005 — an increase of 195.3 million pounds (88,606 metric tons) compared with 2004. Landings for reduction and other industrial purposes were 1.6 billion pounds (725,755 metric tons) in 2005 — a decrease of 13 percent compared with 2004. The 2005 U.S. marine recreational finfish catch (including fish kept and fish released (discarded)) on the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts was an estimated 423.3 million fish taken on an estimated 83.4 million fishing trips. The harvest (fish kept or released dead) was estimated at 174.3 million fish weighing 254.4 million pounds. WORLD LANDINGS In 2004, the most recent year for which data are available, world commercial fishery landings and aquaculture pro- duction were 140.5 million metric tons — an increase of 7.3 million metric tons (5 percent increase) compared with 2003. China was the leading nation with 33.8 percent of the total harvest; Peru, second with 6.8 percent; India, third with 4.3 percent; Indonesia, fourth with 4.1 percent; Chile, fifth with 4.0 percent; and United States, sixth with 4.0 percent. PRICES The 2005 annual exvessel price index for edible fish decreased by 4 percent, shellfish increased 16 percent and industrial stayed the same when comparing with 2004. Exvessel price indices increased for 22 out of 32 species groups being tracked, decreased for 8 species groups, and unchanged for 2 species groups. The sea scallops price index had the largest increase (77 percent) while bluefin tuna price index showed the largest decrease (35 percent). PROCESSED PRODUCTS The estimated value of the 2005 domestic production of edible and nonedible fishery products was $7.6 billion, $645.5 million more than in 2004. The value of edible products was $7.2 billion — an increase of $645.7 million compared with 2004. The value of industrial products was $362.2 million in 2005 — a decrease of $168.0 thousand compared with 2004. FOREIGN TRADE The total import value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $25.1 billion in 2005 — an increase of $2.2 billion compared with 2004. Imports of edible fishery products (product weight) were 5.1 billion pounds valued at $12.1 billion in 2005 — an increase of 164.1 million pounds and $768.0 million compared with 2004. Imports of nonedible (i.e., industrial) products were IV Review $13.0 billion — an increase of $1.5 billion compared with 2004. Total export value of edible and nonedible fishery products was $15.4 billion in 2005 — an increase of $1.8 billion compared with 2004. United States firms ex- ported 2.9 billion pounds of edible products valued at $4.1 billion — an increase of 41.2 million pounds and $365.4 million compared with 2004. Exports o f nonedible products were valued at $11.4 billion, $1.5 billion more than 2004. SUPPLY The U.S. supply of edible fishery products (domestic landings plus imports, round weight equivalent, minus exports) was 11.7 billion pounds in 2005 — an increase of 576.2 million pounds compared with 2004. The supply of industrial fishery products was 346.8 million pounds in 2005 — a decrease of 677.4 million pounds compared with 2004. PER CAPITA CONSUMPTION U.S. consumption of fishery products was 16.2 pounds of edible meat per person in 2005, down 0.4 pound from the 2004 per capita consumption of 16.6 pounds. CONSUMER EXPENDITURES U.S. consumers spent an estimated $65.2 billion for fishery products in 2005. The 2005 total includes $44.5 billion in expenditures at food service establishments (restaurants, carry-outs, caterers, etc.); $20.5 billion in retail sales for home consumption; and $207.9 million for industrial fish products. By producing and marketing a variety of fishery products for domestic and foreign markets, the commercial marine fishing in dustry contrib- uted $32.9 billion (in value added) to the U.S. Gross National Product.

Detailed information on marine recreational fishing is required to support a variety of fishery management and development purposes and is mandated by the Sustainable Fisheries Act, Public Law 94- 265. In 1979, NMFS began the comprehensive Marine Recreational Fisheries Statistics Survey (MRFSS), covering all fishing modes (private/rental boat, party/ charter boat, and shore), and including estuarine and brackish water. Although the recreational harvest is only about 9 percent of the total U.S. harvest of finfish for states covered by the MRFSS (see coverage section below), 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 and other programs show that recreational fishing significantiy 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 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 composition of catches, catch rates by species, and lengths and weights of landed fish. These data are combined to produce estimates of catch and effort. Catch estimates are separated into two categories - harvested catch and catch released alive. Harvested catch includes landed fish and catch reported as dead. Whenever possible 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 filleted fish. Catch estimates 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. In place of the MRFSS, Oregon and Washington conduct ocean boats surveys to produce catch and effort estimates. Oregon's Ocean Recreational Boat Survey (ORBS) and Washington's Ocean Sampling Program (OSP) consist of a field intercept survey for effort and catch of passenger and private boats. The effort data is collected by counting boat trips from a particular ocean port inlet on sampled days. The catch data include fish species composition numbers of anglers, type of fishing, and lengths and weights of landed catch. Catch landed whole are exam- ined by samplers, while other catch is reported by anglers or passenger boat crew. The catch rate data and boat counts are combined and expanded by type of day to produce catch and effort estimates in weekly to monthly time periods. Catch estimates in numbers of fish and weight are produced for each species of fish. On the Atlantic and Gulf coasts, and in California and Washington's Puget Sound, effort for the parly/charter fishing mode is now estimated through For- Hire Surveys (FHS). These surveys differ from the MRFSS because they use a telephone survey of boats operators, rather than households, as the primary method for estimating fishing effort. Dockside and on-board intercept surveys collect the angler trip and catch data. The total catch of any one species is calculated as the product of the estimate of total angler trips and the estimated mean catch per trip. Al- though separate estimates are generated for charter boat and party/ headboat fishing through the FHS, estimates are not stratified by vessel type in California or Puget Sound. This improved effort methodology was initiated in 2000 on the Gulf coast, in 2001 on the Pacific coast, and in 2003 on the Atlantic coast FHS numbers for 2005 are included here for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts and for California. For 2004, FHS numbers where used only for the Gulf coast an California, but not for the Atlantic coast. Marine recreational fishing in Texas is monitored by the Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife. Texas numbers for 2005 were from Texas Parks and Wildlife recreational survey data. COVERAGE. In 2005, the MRFSS included the Atlantic coast (Maine-East Florida), Gulf coast (Louisiana- West Florida) , Puerto Rico and Hawaii. Detailed information and access to the data are available on the Fisheries Statistics web page (http://www.st.nmfs.gov/stl/recreational/). 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 1 985, 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, 20 U.S. Marin Hon* nes 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 five percent of the annual recre- ational catch on the Adantic and Gulf coasts is taken during Wave 1 (January - February). Costs to sample these months are very high due to low fishing activity. There- fore, 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 Adantic coast of Florida. With a few exceptions (Georgia 1985-1989, South Carolina 1988, North Carolina 1988-1992), the MRFSS has not been conducted in Jan/Feb on the Adantic coast north of Florida since 1980. Time periods when the MRFSS has not been conducted: Nov/Dec (Maine and New Hampshire) - 1987 to present; Mar/ Apr (Maine and New Hampshire) - 1986 to present; Jan/ Feb (Northern California and Oregon) - 1994; Jan/Feb (Southern California and Oregon) - 1995; Nov/Dec (Oregon) - 1994; Nov/Dec (Washington shore modes) - 2003; July - Dec (Oregon shore modes) - 2003; All Waves (California through Washington) - 1990 to 1993, 2004 to present; All Waves (Washington) - 1993 to 1994. Data from other NMFS and state surveys (e.g. southeast head boats, California Passenger Fishing Vessels, Pacific salmon, and Alaska) are not included in this report. The numbers reported for Washington and Oregon for 2005 include only private and for-hire-fisheries. DATA TABLES. The estimated harvests (numbers and weight of fish) for the continental U.S. and Hawaii (excluding Texas) are presented. Numbers of fish har- vested and released alive are also presented for many important species groups. Estimated harvests are pre- sented 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 and Puerto Rico, 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. 2005 MRFSS DATA. In 2005, more than 12 million anglers made more than 83 million marine recreational fishing trips to the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific coasts. The estimated total marine recreational catch was more than 423 million fish, of which nearly 59 percent were released alive. The estimated total weight of harvested catch was more than 245 million pounds. The Adantic coast ac- counted for the majority of trips (almost 63 percent) and catch (over 57 percent). The Gulf coast accounted for nearly 28 percent of trips, and over 36 percent of the catch. The Pacific coast accounted for almost 6 percent of trips, and 5 percent of the catch. Nationally, most (almost 60 percent in numbers of fish) of the recreational catch came from inland waters, 30 percent from state territorial seas, and more than 10 percent from the EEZ. The majority of Adantic, Gulf and Pacific trips fished primarily in inland waters. ATLANTIC. In 2005, 7.8 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All participants, including visitors, took over 52 million trips and caught a total of almost 243 million fish. Nearly 23 percent of the trips were made in east Florida, followed by 13 percent in North Carolina, nearly 13 percent in New Jersey, nearly 12 percent in New York, almost 9 percent in Massachu- setts, over 7 percent in Virginia, and over 6 percent in Maryland. Together, South Carolina, Connecticut, and Rhode Island accounted for more than 1 0 percent of the trips, and Maine, Delaware, Georgia, and New Hamp- shire accounted for the remaining percentage. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers offish) were summer flounder, Adantic croaker, bluefish, striped bass, and spot. The largest harvests by weight were striped bass, bluefish, summer flounder, Adantic croaker, and dolphinfish. Over the last ten years, total annual catch of striped bass increased overall from almost 14 million fish (1996) to nearly 22 million fish (2005). In 2005, striped bass catch (nearly 22 million fish) was nearly 28 percent above the 10-year average of 17 million fish. From 1996 to 2005, total annual catch of summer flounder has averaged 22 million fish. Catch increased overall from 19 million fish (1996) to almost 28 million fish (2005). From die total catch in 2005 (almost 28 million fish), nearly 85 percent were released alive. Annual bluefish catch increased overall from 9.5 million fish (1996) to almost 23 million fish (2005). At almost 23 million fish, 2005 bluefish catch was above the 10-year mean of 15 million. Over the last ten years, total annual catch of black sea bass has 21 fluctuated ranging from a low of 6.3 million fish (1998) to a high of 19 million fish (2000) with no clear trend. In 2005, black sea bass catch (10 million fish) was over 17 percent below the 10-year average of over 12 million fish The species most commonly caught on Atlantic coast trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were black sea bass, summer flounder, Atlantic cod, bluefish, and dolphinfish. Almost 30 percent of the total Atlantic catch came on saltwater trips that fished prima- rily in the state territorial seas, and 60 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. GULF OF MEXICO. In 2005, more than 3.3 million residents participated in marine recreational fishing. All participants, including visitors, took 23 million trips and caught almost 154 million fish. About 68 percent of the trips were made in west Florida, followed by 17 percent in Louisiana, nearly 7 percent in Alabama, over 4 percent in Texas, and nearly 4 percent in Mississippi. The most commonly caught non-bait species (numbers of fish) were spotted seatrout, red drum, gray snapper, sheeps- head, and white grunt. The largest harvests by weight were for spotted seatrout, red drum, sheepshead, gag, red snapper, and black drum. Over the last ten years, total annual catch of red snapper increased overall from nearly 1.8 million fish (1996) to almost 3.1 million fish (2005). In 2005, red snapper catch (almost 3.1 million fish) was 11 percent above the 10- year average of 2.7 million fish. Annual king mackerel catch decreased overall from 821,000 fish in 1996 to 425,000 fish in 2005. At 425,000 fish, 2005 king mackerel catch was below the 10-year mean of 532,000. From 1996 to 2005, total annual catch of spotted seatrout has averaged almost 26 million fish. Catch has been generally stable over the last ten years. From the total catch in 2005 (nearly 31 million fish), more than 64 percent were released alive. Annual red drum catch has been generally stable over the last ten years. At 7.9 million fish, 2005 red drum catch was above the 10-year mean of nearly 7.7 million. The species most commonly caught on Gulf of Mexico trips that fished primarily in federally managed waters were white grunt, red snapper, gag, red grouper, and black sea bass. Over 24 percent of the total Gulf catch came on trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and almost 65 percent came on trips that fished primarily in inland waters. PACIFIC. In 2005, marine recreational fishing partici- pants took 4.6 million trips and caught a total of more than 21 million fish. More than 93 percent of the trips were made in California, followed by almost 4 percent in Oregon, and nearly 3 percent in Washington. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were spotted sandbass, barred sandbass, black rockfish, kelp bass, and barred surfperch. By weight, the largest harvests were black rockfish, lingcod, Chinook salmon, California halibut, striped bass, and coho salmon. Annual lingcod catch increased until 2002 but has de- creased in subsequent years. At almost 3 1 7,000 fish, 2005 lingcod catch was below the 10-year mean of almost 556,000. Over the last ten years, total annual catch of black rockfish has fluctuated ranging from a low of 595,000 fish (1997) to a high of 1.4 million fish (2000) with no clear trend. In 2005, black rockfish catch (nearly 817,000 fish) was 19 percent below the 10-year average of 1 million fish. The most commonly caught Pacific coast species in federally managed waters were barred sandbass, Pacific sanddab, blue rockfish, Pacific barracuda, and vermilion rockfish. Nearly 69 percent of the total Pacific catch came from trips that fished primarily in the state territorial seas, and more than 27 percent came from trips that fished primarily in inland waters. PUERTO RICO. In 2005, almost 140,000 marine recreational participants took almost 850,000 trips and caught a total of more than 1.1 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were dolphinfish, lane snapper, blue runner, yellowtail snapper, and crevalle jack. By weight, the largest harvests were blue marlin, dolphinfish, king mackerel, yellowtail snapper, blue runner, and yellowfin tuna. HAWAII. In 2005, nearly 400,000 marine recreational participants took 2.5 million trips and caught a total of 4.6 million fish. The most commonly caught non-bait species (in numbers of fish) were convict tang, yellowstripe goat- fish, skipjack tuna, bluefin trevally, and yellowfin tuna. By weight, the largest harvests were yellowfin tuna, blue marlin, dolphinfish, bigeye tuna, wahoo, and skipjack tuna. 22 U.S. RECREATIONAL HARVEST (A+B1), BY SPECIES, 2004 AND 2005 Species 2004 2005 Average (2001-2005) Thousand Metric Total Thousand Metric Total Thousand Dounds tons Numbers (thousands) pounds tons Numbers (thousands) pounds Anchovies ** Northern Anchovy 7 3 430 40 18 1,958 21 Other Anchovies 1 d) 89 d) (D d) 2 Barracudas Pacific Barracuda 1,106 501 246 300 136 60 1,077 Other Barracudas 920 417 130 701 318 102 1,021 Bluefish 15,821 7,176 7,249 19,097 8,662 9,028 14,825 Smallmouth Bonefish 253 115 60 56 26 23 80 Cartilaginous Fishes Skates/Rays ** 324 147 74 172 78 127 181 Spiny Dogfish 3 1 1 6 3 2 25 Other Sharks ** 1,135 515 288 2,365 1,073 360 1,814 Catfishes Freshwater Catfishes 846 384 383 313 142 268 552 Saltwater Catfishes 774 351 493 1,042 473 634 886 Cods And Hakes Atlantic Cod 3,854 1,748 650 4,466 2,026 743 5,051 Pacific Cod 52 24 6 31 14 4 22 Pacific Hake 3 1 1 (1) (1) (1) 1 Pacific Tomcod (D (D 4 (1) (1) (1) (1) Pollock 424 192 227 1,098 498 161 799 Red Hake 34 16 30 185 84 122 52 Walleye Pollock -

The total U.S. supply of imports and landings is converted to edible weight and decreases in supply such as exports are subtracted out. The remaining total is divided by a population value to estimate per capita consumption. Data for the model are derived primarily from second- ary sources and are subject to incomplete reporting; changes in source data or invalid model assumptions may each have a significant effect on the resulting calculation. U.S. per capita consumption of fish and shellfish was 16.2 pounds (edible meat) in 2005. This total was 0.4 pounds less than the record 16.6 pounds consumed in 2004. Per capita consumption of fresh and frozen products was 11.6 pounds, 0.2 pound less than 2004. Fresh and frozen finfish accounted for 6.1 pounds while fresh and frozen shellfish consumption was 5.5 pounds per capita. The fresh and frozen finfish includes approximately 1.0 pounds of domestically produced farm raised catfish. Consumption of canned fishery products was 4.3 pounds per capita in 2005, 0.2 pound less than the 4.5 pounds in 2004. Cured fish accounted for 0.3 pound per capita, the same as in previous years. Imports of edible seafood made up 81 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 2005 was 69.1 pounds, down 0.2 pounds compared with 2004. WORLD CONSUMPTION The FAO calculation for apparent consumption is based on a disappearance model. The three year average considers, on a round weight equivalent basis, a countries landings, imports, and exports. The revised 2000-2003 data indicates that the United States ranks as the third largest consumer of seafood in the world. 73 U.S. Consumption Annual per capita consumption of seafood products represents the pounds of edible meat consumed from domestically-caught and imported fish and shellfish adjusted for and exports, divided by the civilian population of the United States as of July 1 of each year.

Source-Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) 77 U.S. Use Per capita use of commercial fish and shellfish is based on the supply of fishery products, both edible and nonedible (industrial), on a round weight equivalent basis, without considering the beginning or ending stocks, defense purchases, or exports. Per capita use figures are not comparable with per capita consumption data. Per capita consumption figures represent edible (for human use) meat weight consumption rather than round weight consumption. In addition, per capita consumption includes allowances for beginning and ending stocks and exports, whereas the use does not include such allowances. Per capita use is derived by using total population including U.S. Armed Forces overseas. The per capita consumption is derived by using civilian resident population.

The table indexes the average annual exvessel value (price per pound) received for each species or group to the average price per pound received for the same species or group in the base year 1982. The exvessel price for each year was obtained by dividing total value for each species or group by its total quantity as reported in the U. S. commercial landings tables on pages 8 thru 13. The index for each species or group was obtained by multiplying the current annual price by the total quantity caught in 1982 (the base year). That number was then divided by the 1 982 value to obtain the final index: (100 x Current price X 1982 quantity) = Index 1982 Annual value Each index number measures price changes from the 1982 reference period when the index equaled 100. A species of fish that sold for $0.75 a pound in 1986 and a $1.00 a pound in 1982 would have an index of 75 in 1986. In 2004, if the price of the same species increased to $1.07, the index in 2005 would be 107.

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 fisher}' 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, Adantic sharks, and Atlantic billfish fisheries are currently being managed by the Secretary under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, and the Western Atlantic bluefin tuna fishery is managed under the Magnuson-Stevens Act and the Atlantic Tunas Con- vention Act. Under section 304 of the Magnuson-Stevens Act, all Council-prepared FMPs must be reviewed for approval by the Secretary of Commerce. Approved FMPs are implemented by Federal regulations under section 305 of the Act. As of December 31, 2005, there are 47 FMPs in effect. Of these, two are Secretarial FMPs for Atlantic highly migratory species. The FMPs are listed below, under the responsible Council. FMPs may be amended by the Council and the amendments are submitted for approval under the same Secretarial review process as new FMPs. Most of the FMPs have been amended since initial implementation, and the number of amendments is shown with each plan. 84 The Mt FINAL INITIAL ANNUAL SPECIFICATIONS AND RESEARCH SETASIDE(RSA), IN METRIC TONS (NIT), ATLANTIC MARCKEREL, SQUID AND BUTTERFISH FOR THE FISHING YEAR JANUARY 1 THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2005 Item Loligo lllex Atlantic Butterfish squid squid mackerel Maximum OY 26,000 24,000 (1) N/A 12,175 ABC 17,000 24,000 335,000 4,545 Initial OY (5) 16,744.9 24,000 (2) 115,000 1,681 DAH DAP JVP TALFF RSA 16,744.9 16,744.9 0 0 255.1 24,000 24,000 0 0 0 (3) 115,000 100,000 (4)0 0 0 1,681 1,681 0 0 0 (1) Not applicable.

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, Atlantic and Pacific salmons, steelhead trout, and striped bass. See 42 FR 60682, Nov. 28, 1977. ANALOG PRODUCTS. These include imitation and simulated crab, lobster, shrimp, scallops, and other fish and shellfish products fabricated from processed fish meat (such as surimi). AQUACULTURE. The farming of aquatic organisms in marine, brackish or fresh water. Farming implies private or corporate ownership of the organism and enhancement of production by stocking, feeding, pro- viding protection from predators, or other management measures. Aquaculture production is reported as the weight and value of cultured organisms at their point of final sale. BATTER-COATED FISH PRODUCTS. Sticks and portions or other forms of fish or shellfish coated with a batter containing a leavening agent and mixture of cereal products, flavoring, and other ingredients, and partially cooked in hot oil a short time to expand and set the batter. BOAT, OTHER. Commercial fishing craft not pow- ered by a motor, e.g., rowboat or sailboat, having a capacity of less than 5 net tons. See motorboat. BREADED FISH PRODUCTS. Sticks and portions or other forms of fish or shellfish coated with a non- leavened mixture containing cereal products, flavorings, and other ingredients. Breaded products are sold raw or partially cooked. BREADED SHRIMP. Peeled shrimp coated with breading. The product may be identified as fantail (butterfly) and round, with or without tail fins and last shell segment; also known as portions, sticks, steaks, etc., when prepared from a composite unit of two or more shrimp pieces whole shrimp or a combination of both without fins or shells. BUTTERFLY FILLET. Two skin-on fillets of a fish joined together by the belly skin. See fillets. CANNED FISHERY PRODUCTS. Fish, shellfish, or other aquatic animals packed in cans, or other contain- ers, which are hermetically sealed and heat-sterilized. Canned fishery products may include milk, vegetables, or other products. Most, but not all, canned fishery prod- ucts can be stored at room temperature for an indefinite time without spoiling. COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who derives income from catching and selling living resources taken from inland or marine waters. CONSUMPTION OF EDIBLE FISHERY PRODUCTS. Estimated amount of commercially landed fish, shellfish, and other aquatic animals con- sumed by the civilian population of the United States. 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 the continental shelf. The Magnuson Act now lists them as certain abalones, surf clam and ocean quahog, queen conch, Atlantic deep-sea red crab, dungeness crab, stone crab, king crabs, snow (tanner) crabs, American lobster, certain corals, and sponges. CURED FISHERY PRODUCTS. Products pre served by drying, pickling, salting, or smoking; not including canned, frozen, irradiated, or pasteurized prod- ucts. Dried products are cured by sun or air-drying; pickled or salted products are those products preserved by applying salt, or by pickling (immersing in brine or in a vinegar or other preservative solution); smoked prod- ucts are cured with smoke or a combination of smoking and drying or salting. DEFLATED VALUE. The deflated values referred to in this document are calculated with the Gross Domestic Products Implicit Price Deflator. The base year for this index is 1987. EDIBLE WEIGHT. The weight of a seafood item exclusive of bones, offal, etc. EEZ. See U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone. EL NINO. This anomalous ocean warming of the eastern Equatorial Pacific occurs at time intervals varying from 2-10 years. El Nino conditions result in an accu- 98 Qi-o: 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, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and United Kingdom. EXPORT VALUE. The value reported is generally equivalent to f.a.s. (free alongside ship) value at the U.S. port of export, based on the transaction price, including inland freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in placing the merchandise alongside the carrier at the U.S. port of exportation. The value excludes the cost of loading, freight, insurance, and other charges or trans- portation cost beyond the port of exportation. EXPORT WEIGHT. The weight of individual prod- ucts as exported, i.e., fillets, steaks, whole, breaded, etc. Includes both domestic and foreign re-exports data. EXVESSEL PRICE. Price received by the harvester for fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals. FISH BLOCKS. Regular fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of fillets or pieces of fillets cut or sliced from fish. Minced fish blocks are frozen blocks or slabs of minced flesh produced by a meat and bone separating machine. FISH FILLETS. The sides of fish that are either skinned or have the skin on, cut lengthwise from the backbone. Most types of fillets are boneless or virtually boneless; some may be labeled as "boneless fillets." FISH MEAL. A high-protein animal feed supplement made by cooking, pressing, drying, and grinding fish or shellfish. FISH OIL. An oil extracted from body (body oil) or liver (liver oil) of fish and marine mammals; mosdy a byproduct of fish meal production. FISH PORTION. A piece offish flesh that is generally of uniform size with thickness of 3/8 of an inch or more and differs from a fish stick in being wider or of a different shape. A fish portion is generally cut from a fish block. FISH SOLUBLES. A water-soluble protein byproduct of fish meal production. Fish solubles are generally condensed to 50 percent solids and marketed as "con- densed fish solubles." FISH STEAK. A cross-section slice cut from a large dressed fish. A steak is usually about 3/4 of an inch thick. FISH STICK. An elongated piece of breaded fish flesh weighing not less than 3/4 of an ounce and not more than 1-1/2 ounces with the largest dimension at least three times that of the next largest dimension. A fish stick is generally cut from a fish block. FISHERY MANAGEMENT PLAN (FMP). A plan developed by a Regional Fishery Management Council, or the Secretary of Commerce under certain circumstances, to manage a fishery resource in the U.S. EEZ pursuant to the MFCMA (Magnuson Act). FISHING CRAFT, COMMERCIAL. Boats and vessels engaged in capturing fish, shellfish, and other aquatic plants and animals for sale. FULL-TIME COMMERCIAL FISHERMAN. An individual who receives more than 50 percent of his or her annual income from commercial fishing activities, includ- ing port activity, such as vessel repair and re-rigging. GROUNDFISH. Broadly, fish that are caught on or near the sea floor. The term includes a wide variety of bottom fishes, rockfishes, and flatfishes. However, NMFS sometimes uses the term in a narrower sense. In "Fisher- ies of the United States," the term applies to die following species— Adantic and Pacific: cod, hake, ocean perch, and pollock; cusk; and haddock. IMPORT VALUE. Value of imports as appraised bv the U.S. Customs Service according to the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended. It may be based on foreign market value, constructed value, American selling price, etc. It generally represents a value in a foreign country, and therefore excludes U.S. import duties, freight, insurance, and other charges incurred in bringing the merchandise to the United States. IMPORT WEIGHT. The weights of individual prod- ucts as received, i.e., fillets, steaks, whole, headed, etc. INDUSTRIAL FISHERY PRODUCTS. Items pro cessed from fish, shellfish, or odier aquatic plants and animals that are not consumed direcdy by humans. These items contain products from seaweeds, fish meal, fish oils, fish solubles, pearl essence, shark and other aquatic animal skins, and shells. 99 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. MAGNUSON-STEVENS FISHERY CONSER- VATION AND MANAGEMENT ACT, Public Law 94-265, as amended. The Magnuson-Stevens Act provides a national program for the conservation and management of fisheries to allow for an optimum yield (OY) on a continuing basis and to realize the full potential of the Nation's fishery resources. It established the U.S. Exclusive Economics Zone (EEZ) (formerly the FCZ - Fishery Conservation Zone) and a means to control foreign and certain domestic fisheries through PMPs and FMPs. Within the U.S. EEZ, the United States has exclusive management authority over fish (meaning fin- fish, mollusks, crustaceans, and all other forms of marine animal and plant life other than marine mammals, birds, and highly migratory species of tuna). The Magnuson Act provides further exclusive management authority be- yond the U.S. EEZ for all continental shelf fishery resources and all anadromous species throughout the migratory range of each such species, except during the time they are found within any foreign nation's territorial sea or fishery conservation zone (or the equivalent), to the extent that such a sea or zone is recognized by the United States. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHING. Fishing for pleasure, amusement, relaxation, or home consump- tion. MARINE RECREATIONAL CATCH. Quantities of finfish, shellfish, and other living aquatic organisms caught, but not necessarily brought ashore, by marine recreational fisherman. MARINE RECREATIONAL FISHERMEN. Those people who fish in marine waters primarily for recreational purposes. Their catch is primarily for home consumption, although occasionally a part or all of their catch may be sold and enter commercial channels. This definition is used in the NMFS Marine Recreational Fishery Statistics Survey, and is not intended to represent a NMFS policy on the sale of angler- caught fish. MAXIMUM SUSTAINABLE YIELD (MSY). MSY from a fishery is the largest annual catch or yield in terms of weight of fish caught by both commercial and recreational fishermen that can be taken continuously from a stock under existing environmental conditions. A determination of MSY, which should be an estimate based upon the best scientific information available, is a biological measure necessary in the development of optimum yield. METRIC TONS. A measure of weight equal to 1,000 kilograms, 0.984 long tons, 1.1023 short tons, or 2,204.6 pounds. MOTORBOAT. A motor-driven commercial fishing craft having a capacity of less than 5 net tons, or not officially documented by the Coast Guard. See "boat, other". NORTHWEST ATLANTIC FISHERIES OR- GANIZATION (NAFO). This convention, entered into force January 1, 1979, replaces ICNAF. NAFO provides a forum for continued multilateral scientific research and investigation of fishery resources that occur beyond the limits of coastal nations' fishery jurisdiction in the northwest Atlantic, and will ensure consistency be- tween NAFO management measures in this area and those adopted by the coastal nations within the limits of their fishery jurisdiction. OPTIMUM YIELD (OY). In the MFCMA (Magnuson Act), OY with respect to the yield from a fishery, is the amount of fish that (1) will provide the greatest overall benefit to the United States, with particu- lar reference to food production and recreational op- portunities; and (2) is prescribed as such on the basis of maximum sustainable yield from such fishery, as modi- fied by any relevant ecological, economic, or social factors. 100 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 (LIVE) WEIGHT. The weight of fish, shellfish, or other aquatic plants and animals as taken from the water; the complete or full weight as caught. The tables on world catch found in this publication include, in the case of mollusks, the weight of both the shells and the meats, whereas the tables on U.S. landings include only the weight of the meats. SURIMI. Minced fish meat (usually Alaska pollock) which has been washed to remove fat and undesirable matters (such as blood, pigments, and odorous sub- stances), and mixed with cryoprotectants, such as sugar and/or sorbitol, for a good frozen shelf life. TOTAL ALLOWABLE LEVEL OF FOREIGN FISHING (TALFF). The TALFF, if any, with respect to any fishery subject to the exclusive fisher)' 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. EXCLUSrVE 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.

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-scrvice 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 Program 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 1 23 and 1 240) regarding 'Trocedures 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 PARTICAPANTS LIST FOR FIRMS, FACILITIES 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 Program and in accordance with federal and state regulations regarding advertising and labeling. Products bearing the USDC official marks have been certified as being safe, wholesome, and properly labeled. "US GRADE A" MARK. The U.S. GRADE A mark signifies that a product has been processed under federal inspection in an approved facility and meets the established level of quality of an existing U.S. grade standard. The U .S. Grade A mark indicates that the product is of high quality, uniform in size, practically free from blemishes and defects, in excellent condition and possessing good flavor and odor. "PROCESSED UNDER FEDERAL INSPECTION" MARK. The PUFI mark or statement signifies that the product is certified to be safe, wholesome and properly labeled, conforms to quality and other criteria in the approved specification, and has been officially inspected in a USDC sanitarily approved facility under Federal inspection. "LOT INSPECTED" MARK. The USDC Lot Inspected mark identifies products that were officially sampled and inspected to conform to an approved specification or criteria. This mark may be used on retail packages and packaging provided the label and specification are approved. "RETAIL" MARK. In response to requests made by industry, a new mark has been created for retail or food 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 fisher}- products. USDC HACCP MARK. The USDC HACCP-based service is available to all interested parties on a fee-for-service basis. Label approval, record keeping and analytical testing are program requirements. 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 H\CCP 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.
