The term embedding is ill defined and has been applied to distinct
phenomena, some predicted by economic theory and others not. This paper lays
out a theoretical framework for looking at these phenomena and provides a set
of well defined terms. Included is a discussion of survey design problems
that may induce spurious evidence in favor of the hypothesis that respondents
are insensitive to the scope of the good being valued. An empirical example
of the component sensitivity is provided. This test rejects the hypothesis
that respondents are insensitive to the scope of the good being valued.

Implementation of individual vessel quotas (IVQs) in the British
Columbia halibut fishery has provided a unique opportunity to examine the
effects of this management technique on a previously intense derby fishery.
This paper describes the changes that have occurred in the fishery since the
introduction of individual vessel quotas in 1991. The results presented here
are largely based on the finds of two surveys. In September 1993, we
conducted in-depth interviews with most of the major halibut processors in
British Columbia. These processors reported significant changes in the
processing and marketing of halibut. In Spring 1993, we conducted a mail
survey of all 435 licensed halibut fishermen. The survey consisted of several
series of questions designed to measure changes in fishing operations (crew
size, fishing practices, etc.), quota leasing activities, changes in fishing
income, and opinions about the effects of IVQs. The results presented here
provide important information about the effects of the British Columbia
halibut IVQ program to date and will be useful for comparison to similar
management programs implemented elsewhere.

Sharks are a highly valuable resource both commercially and
recreationally and are a highly vulnerable population of animals. Although
sharks have evolved as apex predators, they are ill equipped to endure man s
intense exploitation.
