Annual Economic Survey of Federal Gulf and South Atlantic Shrimp Permit Holders

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), NOAA Fisheries, Southeast Fisheries Science Center proposes to collect socioeconomic data from commercial fishermen in the Gulf of Mexico and South Atlantic shrimp fisheries who hold one or more federal permits for harvesting shrimp from federal waters (U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone). Information about revenues, variable and fixed costs, and capital investment information is collected from a random sample of permit holders. These data are needed to conduct socioeconomic analyses in support of management of the shrimp fishery and to satisfy legal requirements. The data will be used to assess how fishermen will be impacted by and respond to federal regulation likely to be considered by fishery managers. We are dropping a crew-survey element which was added with the last renewal (incl. 300 burden hours).
