A discussion of individual transferable quotas (ITQs) in terms of their
application to fisheries management. Pros and cons of ITQs are presented
based on their application in three U.S. domestic fisheries and in six other
countries. Problems arising from program design are separated from those
inherent to the ITQ concept.
Buerger, Robert and James R. Kahn (1989). "New York Value of Chesapeake
Striped Bass." Marine Resource Economics, 6(1):19-25.
This article looks at the interstate open access externalities
associated with Chesapeake Bay striped bass. These fish spawn in the
Chesapeake Bay and then migrate to other areas of the East Coast. The
Chesapeake striped bass have been in substantial decline over the last decade.
Of specific interest are the losses suffered in New York from the decline in
striped bass production from the Chesapeake Bay. This is done by estimating
demand and supply curves for commercial fishing and then computing the losses
in consumers' and producers' surplus associated with the decline, estimated to
be $396,000 per year.
