management of penaeid shrimp held at Key West, Florida, in November, 1981.
Primarily biological papers were presented covering policy in different
countries, behavior, types of analysis, interaction with other species,
environmental factors, and management.

Report prepared for the Gulf of Mexico Fishery Management Council.

The purpose of this report, utilizing available commercial discard and
resource assessment data, is to provide a more precise estimate of juvenile
red snapper mortality caused by shrimp trawlers than that reported in the Gulf
of Mexico Fishery Management Council Reef Fish Management Plan. In addition,
the information provided can be used to establish timing of recruitment into
the fishery; not the snapper fishery, but the first exploitation of red
snapper by the shrimp fishery.

This paper, utilizing available commercial bycatch and resource
assessment data, provides a more precise estimate of the catch of juvenile red
snapper by shrimp trawlers than that reported in the Gulf of Mexico Fishery
Management Council (1980) Reef fish Management Plan. In addition, the
information provided may be useful for estimating the timing of first
exploitation of red snapper by the shrimp fishery.

Endogeneity in Random Utility Models of Recreational Demand. Draft,
Department of Agricultural Economics, University of Maryland, College

Modeling the choice among a discrete set of recreation alternatives is
driven by the possible patterns of substitution among sites. Researchers
typically assume that the individual s choice set is the same as the set of
alternatives included in the recreation survey instrument. This need not be
the case. We derive a generalization of the standard multinomial logit random
utility model which allows for the possibility of heterogeneous choice sets
that are endogenously determined in the model. The possible biases introduced
by erroneously specifying each individual s choice set are investigated in two
examples. Using these examples, we show that parameter and compensating
variation estimates differ greatly between the endogenous choice set model and
the traditional logit model. The new endogenous choice set model is shown to
be manageable for a small number of alternatives, and two examples provide
grounds for optimism in further applications of the model.

Total and country-specific data are presented for U.S. swordfish imports
in terms of both dressed weight and value in U.S. dollars. Total imports
increased from 11.6 mt in 1975 to 1240 mt in 1984, then jumped to 4114 mt in
