Dear Mr. Doe,
Last week I sent you a letter inviting you to participate in a community economic survey being
conducted by NOAA Fisheries. This letter contains the survey questionnaire, which will take
about 30 minutes to complete. After completing the survey questionnaire, please place it in the
enclosed self-addressed stamped envelope and deposit the envelope in the mail.
I hope you choose to participate in this voluntary survey. By collecting information from
households such as yours, we can better understand the role of fisheries in coastal economies and
the economic impact of fishery management policies. Please note that the survey does not ask
for the submission of any information that could be used to identify your household.
Thank you for your consideration. Please contact me to discuss any concerns or questions you
have regarding the survey.

Sincerely,

Carl Lian
Economist
