First Receiver and Shorebased Processor Data - Economic Data Collection for Monitoring the Economic Effects of the West Coast Groundfish Trawl Rationalization Program

This project was initiated in response to regulation 50 CFR 660.114, which mandates that economic data be collected from every participant in the trawl rationalization program. The data are collected annually from catcher vessels, catcher processors, motherships, first receivers, and shorebased processors through paper-based forms. The four forms (specific to entity type) are mailed annually in May, and collect data about the fishing, buying, and processing information from the previous year. The entity must submit their data by September 1, 2012 in order to renew their limited entry trawl permits, reissue their quota share, vessel accounts, and receive their first receiver site licenses. The data, reports, tech memos, and academic papers are used by Northwest Region staff, Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC), and headquarters staff to inform management decisions, and to monitor the effects of the program. Cost earnings data for first receiver and shorebased processor data.
