Alaska Region Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Crab Economic Data Reports

This information collection covers the Economic Data Report (EDR) requirements of the NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Services' Alaska Region Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI) Crab Rationalization (CR) Program. The CR Program is a catch share program that allocates BSAI crab resources among harvesters, processors, and coastal communities. The purpose of the crab EDRs is to gather economic information to analyze the economic effects of the CR Program and the economic performance of participants in the program, and to estimate impacts of future issues, problems, or proposed revisions to the program. The data collected through the EDRs are used to prepare reports, program reviews, and analysis of proposed revisions to the Crab Rationalization Program. The EDRs include cost, revenue, ownership, and employment data in order to study the economic impacts of the CR Program on harvesters, processors, and affected communities.
