PREFACE 


FISHERIES  QF  THE  UNITED  STATE?.  1999 

This  publication  is  a  preliminary  report  for 
1989  on  commercial  and  recreational  fisheries  of 
the  United  States  and  foreign  catches  In  the  U.S. 
Exclusive  Economic  Zone  (EEZ).  This  annual  report 
provides  timely  answers  to  frequently  asked 
questions  for  the  previous  year. 


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,  collected  and  compiled  data  on  U.S. 
commercial  landings  and  processed  fishery 
products.  The  NMFS  field  offices  compiled  data  on 
the  foreign  catch  from  reports  submitted  by 
designated  foreign  officials.  The  NMFS  Fisheries 
Statistics  Division  In  Silver  Spring.  MD,  managed  the 
collection  and  compilation  of  recreational  statistics, 
and  tabulated  and  prepared  all  data  for 
publication.  Sources  of  other  data  appearing  In  this 
publication  are:  U.S.  Bureau  of  the  Census,  U.S. 
Bureau  of  Labor  Statistics.  U.S.  Coast  Guard.  U.S. 
Customs  Service,  U.S.  Department  of  the  Interior,  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture,  Food  and  Agriculture 
Organization  (FAO)  of  the  United  Nations  (Rome), 
and  the  countries  fishing  In  the  U.S.  EEZ. 


PRELIMINARY  AND  FINAL  DATA 

Data  on  U.S.  commercial  and  recreational 
landings,  foreign  catches,  employment,  prices,  and 
production  of  processed  products  are  preliminary 
for  1989.  Final  data  will  be  published  in  Fishery 
Statistics  of  the  United  States  and  other  NMFS 
Current  Fishery  Statistics  publications. 


DEFINITIONS  -  (See  Glossary) 

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  commercial  catch  is 
exvessel;  the  value  for  U.S.  Imports  Is  generally  the 
market  value  In  the  foreign  (exporting)  country  and, 
therefore,  excludes  U.S.  import  duties,  freight 
charges  from  the  foreign  country  to  the  United 
States,  and  insurance;  the  value  for  exports  Is 
generally  the  value  at  the  U.S.  port  of  export,  based 
on  the  selling  price.  Including  Inland  freight, 
insurance,  and  other  charges.  Countries  and 
territories  shown  in  the  U.S.  foreign  trade  section  are 
established  for  statistical  purposes  in  the  Tariff 
Schedules  of  the  United  States  Annotated  (Tariff 
Commission)  and  reported  by  the  U.S.  Bureau  of  the 
Census.

IMPORTANT  FACTS 


U.S.  LANDINGS.  Commercial  landings  (edible  and 
Industrial)  by  U.S.  fishermen  at  ports  In  the  50  states 
were  a  record  8.5  billion  pounds  (3.8  million  metric 
tons)  valued  at  $3.2  billion  In  1989~an  Increase  of 
1.3  billion  pounds  (576,300  metric  tons)  In  quantity, 
but  a  decrease  of  $281 .8  million  in  value  compared 
with  1988.  Landings  of  major  flnflsh  species  such  as 
Atlantic  and  Pacific  cod,  Alaska  pollock,  and 
salmon  Increased.  The  1989  average  exvessel  price 
per  pound  paid  to  fishermen  was  38  cents 
compared  to  the  49  cents  they  received  In  1988. 
Flnflsh  accounted  for  84  percent  of  total  landings, 
but  only  53  percent  of  the  total  value  of  flnflsh  and 
shellfish. 

Commercial  landings  by  U.S.  fishermen  at 
ports  outside  the  50  states  or  transferred  In  the  U.S. 
Exclusive  Economic  Zone  (EEZ)  onto  foreign  vessels 
(joint  ventures)  were  an  additional  2.2  billion  pounds 
(994,000  metric  tons)  valued  at  $326.7  million.  This 
was  a  42  percent,  or  1.6  billion  pound  (718,000 
metric  tons),  decrease  in  quantity  and  a  $163.1 
million  (33  percent)  decrease  in  value  compared 
with  1988.  Most  of  these  landings  consisted  of  tuna 
landed  at  canneries  In  Puerto  Rico,  American 
Samoa  and  other  foreign  ports.  Joint  venture 
catches  decreased  significantly  (see  below). 

Edible  fish  and  shellfish  landings  In  the  50 
states  were  6.2  billion  pounds  (2.8  million  metric 
tons)  in  1989-an  Increase  of  1.6  billion  pounds 
(733,000  metric  tons)  compared  with  1988.  Landings 
of  shrimp,  clams,  Alaska  pollock,  crabs,  Atlantic  and 
Pacific  cod,  and  salmon  Increased.  Flounder  and 
tuna  landings  decreased. 


Landings  for  reduction  and  other  Industrial 
purposes  were  2.3  billion  pounds  (1.0  million  metric 
tons)  In  1989-a  decrease  of  13  percent  compared 
with  1988. 

The  U.S.  marine  recreational  flnflsh  catch  In 
1989  (excluding  Alaska,  Hawaii,  and  Pacific  coast 
salmon)  was  an  estimated  289.2  million  fish.  These 
fish  weighed  approximately  469.2  million  pounds 
and  were  taken  on  an  estimated  57.9  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. 

JOINT  VENTURE  CATCH  IN  THE  U.S.  EEZ.  Joint  venture 
catches  by  U.S.  fishermen  unloaded  onto  foreign 
vessels  were  771.000  metric  tons  (1.7  billion  pounds) 
valued  at  $112.2  million.  This  was  a  47  percent 
decrease  In  quantity  over  1988.  when  1.5  million 
metric  tons  (3.2  billion  pounds)  were  caught,  valued 
at  $221.1  million.  The  major  species  were  cod, 
flounders.  Pacific  hake,  and  Alaska  pollock. 


FOREIGN  CATCH  IN  U.S.  EEZ.  The  foreign  catch  of 
fish  (excluding  tunas)  and  shellfish  In  the  U.S.  EEZ 
was  37200  metric  tons  (82.1  million  pounds)  in  1989. 
a  40  percent  decrease  compared  with  1988  and  94 
percent  below  the  average  for  the  preceding  5 
years.  The  foreign  catch  off  the  North  Atlantic  U.S. 
EEZ  supplied  the  largest  share  of  the  total  (99 
percent)  followed  by  Alaska  (less  than  one 
percent).  There  were  no  foreign  catches  In  the  U.S. 
EEZ  off  California.  Oregon  and  Washington  In  1989. 

Atlantic  mackerel  comprised  99  percent  of  the 
foreign  catch;  butterfish,  hakes,  herrings  and  other 
fish  and  shellfish  comprised  the  remainder. 

The  German  Democratic  Republic  was  the 
leading  nation  fishing  In  the  U.S.  EEZ  with  a  catch  of 
18,000  metric  tons,  48  percent  of  the  total  foreign 
catch.  The  USSR  was  the  second  leading  nation 
fishing  in  the  U.S.  EEZ,  with  11.000  metric  tons 
representing  31  percent  of  the  catch  in  1989. 

The  1989  foreign  catch  In  the  Pacific  U.S.  EEZ 
was  only  122  metric  tons.  18216  metric  tons  (99 
percent)  less  than  1988.  Snails  from  the  Eastern 
Bering  Sea  and  Aleutian  Islands  were  the  only 
species  harvested. 

Foreign  catches  In  the  North  Atlantic  U.S.  EEZ  In 
1989  were  37,100  metric  tons,  6200  metric  tons  (14 
percent)  less  than  the  1988  catch  of  43.300  metric 
tons.  The  German  Democratic  Republic  had  the 
highest  catch  with  18,000  metric  tons  (49  percent), 
followed  by  the  USSR  with  11.500  metric  tons  (31 
percent).  Atlantic  mackerel  catches  amounted  to 
36,800  metric  tons  (99  percent). 


U.S.  VS.  FOREIGN  CATCH  IN  U.S.  EEZ.  The  combined 
catch  by  U.S.  and  foreign  vessels  In  the  U.S.  EEZ  was 
2.7  million  metric  tons  In  1989,  a  decrease  of 
269,000  metric  tons  (9  percent)  compared  with 
1988.  The  U.S.  share  was  99  percent  of  the  total,  up 
1  percentage  point  from  1988. 

WORLD  LANDINGS.  In  1988,  the  most  recent  year 
for  which  data  are  available,  world  commercial 
fishery  landings  were  a  record  98.4  million  metric 
tons~an  Increase  of  4.6  million  metric  tons  (5 
percent)  compared  with  1987.  Japan  continued  to 
be  the  leading  nation  with  12  percent  of  the  total 
catch;  the  USSR,  second  with  11  percent;  China, 
third  with  10  percent;  followed  by  Peru  with  7 
percent;  and  the  United  States  with  6  percent. 


PRICES.  The  procedure  for  calculating  the  Index  or 
exvessel  prices  for  all  fish  and  shellfish  was  reviewed 
and    modified    in    1986.      In    1989   the   Index   was

U.S.  MARINE  RECREATIONAL  FISHERIES 


DATA  COLLECTION.  While  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.  These  include  the  objectives  of  the 
Magnuson  Fishery  Conservation  and  Management 
Act,  Public  Law  94-265,  as  amended.  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  comprehensive  Marine  Recreational 
Fishery  Statistical  Survey  (MRFSS)  In  1979.  Surveys 
have  been  conducted  in  the  following  areas  and 
years: 


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  fisheries  group  may  contain 
one  or  more  species,  genera,  or  families. 


Several  tables  show  the  distribution  of  total 
catch  by  subreglon,  fishing  area  and  mode.  The 
fishing  areas  are:  ocean  3  miles  or  less  from  land, 
ocean  more  than  3  miles  from  land,  and  Inland 
(sounds,  river,  bays).  However,  ocean  data  for  the 
Gulf  coast  of  Florida  are  reported  as  10  miles  or  less 
from  land  and  more  than  10  miles  from  land. 


Atlantic  and  Gulf,  1979  through  1989 
Pacific,  mid-1979  through  1989 
Western  Pacific.  1979  through  1981 
Caribbean,  1979.  1981 


Preliminary  estimates  of  catch  and  trips  from  the 
MRFSS  for  the  Atlantic,  Gulf,  and  Pacific  coasts  for 
1989  are  presented  in  the  following  tables. 
Summary  graphs  for  1980-1989  catch  and  trips  are 
also  shown.  The  survey  is  being  conducted  In  1990 
along  the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts. 


These  surveys  consist  of  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  subreglon  or  state,  species,  mode  and  area  of 
fishing.  In  addition.  Information  on  catch  rates  and 
fish  lengths  and  weights  is  obtained. 


The  MRFSS  Is  only  one  of  several  NMFS 
efforts  to  obtain  data  on  recreational  fisheries. 
Specialized  surveys  on  particular  fisheries  or  to 
obtain  socio-economic  data  are  also  conducted  by 
NMFS. 


DATA  TABLES.  The  MRFSS  catch  data  show  the  total 
number  of  fish  caught  for  twenty  frequently  caught 
species  groups  in  each  survey  area.  Total  number 
caught  includes  those    fish  brought  ashore  In  whole 


The  fishing  modes  are:  shore  (man-made 
structures  and  beach/bank  from  previous  surveys), 
party/charter  boat,  and  private/rental  boat. 
However,  in  1989  partyboats  were  not  sampled  by 
the  MRFSS  In  the  South  Atlantic  and  Gulf  subreglons, 
so  party/charter  estimates  Include  only  charterboats 
In  these  areas. 

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  subreglon  bordering  saltwater,  and 
non-residents.  They  also  Include  the  estimated 
number  of  trips  by  fishing  mode. 


The  1989  survey  did  not  Include  Texas  or  the 
January  and  February  period  for  South  Carolina  and 
the  Atlantic  coast  states  north  of  North  Carolina. 
Pacific  coast  salmon  fishing  trips  and  catches  were 
not  included  as  a  result  of  a  cooperative 
arrangement  with  the  Pacific  coast  states.  These 
states  had  ongoing  salmon  data  collection  efforts 
which  estimated  a  Pacific  coast  total  salmon  catch 
of  approximately  763,300  fish  In  1989.  The  data 
presented  below  will  be  finalized  In  separate  marine 
recreational  fishery  reports  to  be  published  later  this 
year. 

PRELIMINARY  1989  MRFSS  DATA.  The  U.S.  marine 
recreational  flnflsh  catch  in  1989  (excluding  Alaska. 
Hawaii,  and  Pacific  coast  salmon)  was  an  estimated 
289.2  million  fish.  These  fish  weighed  approximately 
469.2  million  pounds  and  were  taken  on  an 
estimated  57.9  million  fishing  trips.  The  estimated 
number  of  U.S.  marine  recreational  fishermen  has 
been  relatively  stable  over  the  last  few  years  at  17 
million. 


U.S.  MARINE  RECREATIONAL  FISHERIES

The  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  accounted  for 
approximately  86  percent  of  the  total  U.S.  marine 
recreational  finflsh  catch  by  number.  Eighty-four 
percent  of  the  estimated  U.S.  trips  were  made  on 
the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts. 


Approximately  17  percent  of  the  total  U.S. 
catch  by  number  was  made  In  the  Exclusive 
Economic  Zone  (EEZ),  the  principal  area  of  NMFS 
management  authority.  However,  for  some  species 
(e.g.,  red  snapper)  over  80  percent  of  the  catch 
was  made  In  the  EEZ. 


The  private/rental  boat  mode  accounted 
for  61  percent  of  the  total  U.S.  marine  recreational 
finflsh  catch  in  number.  Shore  mode  catches  were 
25  percent  of  the  total  and  party/charter  catches 
(excluding  South  Atlantic  and  Gulf  partyboats)  were 
14  percent  of  the  total. 


important  for  particular  species  such  as  king 
mackerel  from  the  charter  boat  mode  and 
klngfishes  from  the  shore  mode. 


Coastal  residents  accounted  for  73  percent  of 
the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  trips  made  In  1989.  Non- 
residents accounted  for  an  additional  23  percent  of 
the  trips.  Total  trips  in  the  South  Atlantic  exceeded 
all  other  subreglons.  This  distribution  of  trips  was 
similar  to  previous  years. 


Pacific.  The  catch  in  number  of  Pacific  mackerel 
was  the  highest  of  any  species  on  the  Pacific  coast 
in  1989.  Top-ranked  species  groups  in  each 
subregion  were  Pacific  mackerel  In  Southern 
California,  rockfishes  in  Northern  California,  and  surf 
smelt  in  Oregon  and  Washington.  Southern 
California  accounted  for  66  percent  of  the  Pacific 
coast  catch  in  number. 


Atlantic  and  Gulf.  In  terms  of  number  of  fish, 
bluefish  was  the  most  frequently  caught  species  on 
the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  In  1989.  Other 
frequently  caught  species  In  1989  were  spotted 
seatrout,  spot  and  black  sea  bass.  Top-ranked 
species  In  each  subregion  In  1989  were  scup  In  the 
North  Atlantic,  bluefish  in  the  Mid-Atlantic,  spot  in 
the  South  Atlantic,  and  spotted  seatrout  in  the  Gulf 
of  Mexico.  The  Gulf  (40  percent)  and  Mid-Atlantic 
(30  percent)  subreglons  accounted  for  the  highest 
numbers  of  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coast  fishes. 


The  Inland,  ocean  3  miles  or  less  from  shore, 
and  ocean  10  miles  or  less  from  shore  areas 
accounted  for  approximately  83  percent  of  the 
Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  catch  in  number.  The 
remaining  17  percent  of  the  catch  in  number  was 
from  the  EEZ. 


Sixty-four  percent  of  the  Atlantic  and  Gulf 
coast  catch  was  taken  in  the  private/rental  boat 
mode   in    1989.  However,  other   modes  were 


The  ocean  3  miles  or  less  from  shore  area  had 
the  highest  catch  In  number  (57  percent)  on  the 
Pacific  coast  in  1989.  The  Pacific  coast  portion  of 
the  catch  In  the  ocean  more  than  3  miles  from 
shore  (13  percent)  was  similar  to  the  17  percent  for 
the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  EEZ. 


The  overall  catch  among  fishing  modes  was 
more  evenly  distributed  on  the  Pacific  coast  than 
on  the  Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts.  Percentage 
catches  In  number  of  fish  were  44  percent  for 
private/rental  boats,  33  percent  for  shore,  and  23 
percent  for  party/charter  boats. 


The  percentage  of  trips  by  coastal  residents  (90 
percent)  was  higher  on  the  Pacific  coast  than  the 
Atlantic  and  Gulf  coasts  (73  percent).  Forty-nine 
percent  of  the  Pacific  coast  trips  In  1989  were  In 
the  Southern  California  subregion.  Considering  that 
an  additional  26  percent  of  the  trips  were  made  In 
the  Northern  California  subregion,  75  percent  of  the 
non-salmon  Pacific  coast  trips  In  1989  were  made  In 
California.

Note: — Data  on  imports  and  exports  cover  the  international  trade  of  176  countries  or  areas.   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 
in  the  export  value.   The  seven  fishery  commodity  groups  covered  by  this  table  are:  1.  Fish,  fresh, 
chilled  or  frozen;   2.   Fish,  dried,  salted,  or  smoked;   3.   Crustaceans  and  mollusks,  fresh, 
dried,  salted,,  etc.;   4.   Fish  products  and  preparations,  whether  or  not  in  airtight  containers; 

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

6.  Oils  and  fats,  crude  or  refined,  of  aquatic  animal  origin;  and  7.   Meals  solubles,  and  similar

PER  CAPITA 

U.S.  USE 


75 


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  61) . 

Per  capita  use  figures  are  not  comparable  with  per  capita  consumption  data  (see  page  72) .   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. 

Note: — From  1970  through  1980,  population  and  per  capita  utilization  data  were  revised  to  reflect 
the  results  of  the  1980  census.   Domestic  landings  data  used  in  calculating  these  data  are 
preliminary  after  1977.

PRICES 


In  1989  the  base  year  for  computing  the 
exvessel  price  Index  has  been  changed  to  1982  to 
conform  with  current  government  standards. 
Indexes  have  been  recalculated  for  1983-89. 

In  the  table  that  follows,  the  exvessel  price 
for  any  given  year  was  obtained  by  dividing  total 
value  by  total  quantity  by  species  as  reported  In 
the  distance  from  shore  tables  on  pages  6-9.  The 
Index  for  each  species  or  group  was  obtained  by 
multiplying  the  current  annual  price  by  the  total 
quantity  caught  in  1982  (the  base  year).  That 
number  was  then  divided  by  the  1982  value  to 
obtain  the  final  Index: 


100  x  Current  price  X  1982  quantity)  =  Index 
1982  Annual  Value 


Each  Index  number  calculated  for  years  (other 
than  the  base  year  of  1982)  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  1989,  If  the 
price  of  the  same  species  increased  to  $1.05,  the 
index  In  1989  would  be  105.

THE  MAGNUSON  FISHERY  CONSERVATION 
AND  MANAGEMENT  ACT 


The  Magnuson  Fishery  Conservation  and 
Management  Act  (MFCMA),  Public  Law  94-265  as 
amended  (Magnuson  Act),  provides  for  the 
conservation  and  management  of  all  fishery 
resources  within  the  U.S.  Exclusive  Economic  Zone 
(EEZ)  except  highly  migratory  species  of  tuna.  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). 


GOVERNING  INTERNATIONAL  FISHERY  AGREEMENTS 

Under  the  Magnuson  Act,  the  U.S. 
Department  of  State,  with  cooperation  from  the 
National  Oceanic  and  Atmospheric  Administration 
(NOAA)  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Commerce, 
negotiates  Governing  International  Fishery 
Agreements  (GIFAs)  with  foreign  countries  wishing  to 
fish  within  the  EEZ.  After  a  GIFA  is  signed.  It  is 
transmitted  by  the  President  to  the  Congress  for 
review. 

FOREIGN  FISHING  PERMITS 

Vessels  of  foreign  nations  which  have  GIFAs 
with  the  United  States  may  fish  In  the  EEZ  for  species 
managed  under  the  Magnuson  Act  after  receiving 
an  allocation  of  that  species  and  a  valid  fishing 
permit.  After  a  GIFA  Is  in  force,  a  foreign  nation 
must  submit  a  permit  application  to  the  U.S. 
Department  of  State  for  each  vessel  to  fish  in  the 
EEZ.  Permit  applications  must  also  be  made  for 
foreign  vessels  to  receive  U.S.  harvested  fish  In  the 
EEZ,  and  to  conduct  any  other  operation  In  the  EEZ 
in  support  of  the  catching,  taking,  or  harvesting  of 
fish.  The  U.S.  Department  of  State  provides  copies 
of  the  applications  to  the  Congress,  the  U.S.  Coast 
Guard,  the  appropriate  Regional  Fishery 
Management  Councils,  and  to  the  Assistant 
Administrator  for  Fisheries  of  the  National  Marine 
Fisheries  Service  (NMFS)  with  its  recommendations. 
The  NMFS  also  receives  recommendations  from  the 
Regional  Fishery  Management  Councils  and  the  U.S. 
Coast  Guard,  as  well  as  the  general  public. 

The  Assistant  Administrator  for  Fisheries 
reviews  recommendations  bearing  on  approval  of 
each  application  and,  after  consulting  with  the  U.S. 
Department  of  State  and  the   U.S.   Coast  Guard, 


may  approve  an  application  in  whole  or  In  part. 
Any  conditions  and  restrictions  on  the  approval  of 
an  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. 

EEEi 

Foreign  nations  engaged  In  fisheries  subject  to 
U.S.  Jurisdiction  are  charged  permit  fees,  poundage 
fees,  a  foreign  fee  surcharge,  and  an  observer  fee. 
An  incremental  fee  may  also  be  charged,  which  is 
a  percentage  of  the  poundage  fee  from  any 
country  found  not  to  be  cooperating  In  the 
conservation  and  development  of  U.S.  fishery 
resources. 

The  permit  fees  In  1989  recovered  costs  of 
issuing  permits,  based  upon  a  standard 
administrative  charge  of  $354  for  each  foreign 
permit  application. 

Poundage  fees  are  charged  for  the  fish 
harvested  by  foreign  vessels.  Poundage  fees  vary  in 
relation  to  the  exvessel  values  of  the  species 
harvested  by  a  nation's  vessels.  Poundage  fees  are 
not  currently  charged  for  U.S.  harvested  fish 
received  by  foreign  vessels.  Collections  from  1989 
poundage  fees  were  expected  to  continue  to 
decrease  as  foreign  fishing  falls  to  very  low  levels. 

The  surcharge  Is  to  capitalize  a  fund  to 
compensate  U.S.  fishermen  operating  In  the  EEZ 
whose  vessels  or  gear  are  lost  or  damaged 
because  of  conflicts  with  foreign  vessels.  The 
surcharge  on  poundage  and  permit  fees  was 
waived  In  1989  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. 


No  Incremental  fees  were  paid  In  1989. 


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 
the   fishing    season.        Adjustments   to    TALFFs   are 


THE  MAGNUSON  FISHERY  CONSERVATION 
AND  MANAGEMENT  ACT

based  on  updated  Information  relating  to  status  of 
stocks,  estimated  and  actual  performance  of 
domestic  and  foreign  fleets,  and  other  relevant 
factors. 


FMPi  and  PMPi 

Under  the  Magnuson  Act.  eight  Regional 
Rshery  Management  Councils  are  charged  with 
preparing  Rshery  Management  Plans  (FMPs)  for  the 
fisheries  needing  management  within  their  areas  of 
authority.  After  the  Councils  develop  FMPs  which 
cover  domestic  and  foreign  Ashing  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  FMP  covers  domestic  and 
foreign  fishing. 

As  of  December  31.  1989.  six  Preliminary 
Fishery  Management  Plans  (PMPs)  were  in  effect, 
many  of  which  have  been  amended  since  first 
being  Implemented.

Under  section  304  of  the  Magnuson  Act,  all 
Council  prepared  FMPs  must  be  reviewed  by  the 
Secretary  of  Commerce.  After  FMPs  have  been 
approved  under  section  304  of  the  Magnuson  Act. 
they  are  Implemented  by  federal  regulations,  under 
section  305  of  the  Act.     During  1989.  one  new  FMP 


was  adopted  by  a  Council,  submitted  for  Secretarial 
review  and  approved.  As  of  December  31.  1989. 
there  are  30  fishery  management  plans  In  place. 
The  FMPs  are  listed  below,  and  those  marked  with 
an  asterisk  (*)  were  approved  and  Implemented 
during  1989.  Many  FMPs  are  amended  by  the 
Council  and  submitted  for  approval  under  the  same 
Secretarial  review  process  as  new  FMPs.  Many  of 
the  FMPs  listed  have  been  amended  since  initial 
Implementation.  Those  marked  with  a  double 
asterisk  (**)  were  amended  In  1989.

FMP  fishery  management  actions  and  rules  for 
foreign  fishing.  This  number  Includes  hearing, 
meeting,  and  correction  notices.

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

mollusks  are  published  on  a  meat-weight  basis. 

MAGNUSON FISHERY CONSERVATION       AND 

MANAGEMENT  ACT.  Public  Law  94-265.  as  amended 

The  Magnuson  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 
flnflsh,  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  beyond  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

the  person's  Income. 

MARINE  RECREATIONAL  CATCH.  Quantities  of  finfish, 
shellfish  and  other  living  aquatic  organisms  caught, 
but  not  necessarily  brought  ashore,  by  marine 
recreational  fisherman.

NORTHWEST  ATLANTIC  FISHERIES  ORGANIZATION 
(NAFO).  This  convention,  which  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  between  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  particular 
reference  to  food  production  and  recreational 
opportunities;  and  (2)  Is  prescribed  as  such  on  the

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 
techniques  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  USDC  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  USDC's 
voluntary  Inspection  service.  The 
functions  symbolized  by  each 
mark  follow: 


•U.S.  GRADE'  MARK. 

The  "U.S.  Grade"  mark  signifies 
that: 

1.  The  product  Is  clean,  safe, 
and  wholesome.

quality,  Identified  by  the 
appropriate  U.S.  Grade

Standards. 

3.  The  product  was  produced  In
