Lence, Sergio H., Dermot J. Hayes, and William H. Meyers (1995). The
Behavior of Forward-Looking Firms in the Very Short Run. American
Journal of Agricultural Economics, 77(4):922-934.
The study develops a theory of very short run forward looking behavior
allowing for forward trading and storage of final good and material input.
Production and storage are separable from hedging decisions and depend only
upon current forward and cash prices. Comparative statics are derived
regarding production, purchases, and sales. The hypotheses advanced are
tested with monthly data pertaining to the U.S. soybean processing industry.
Results suggest that in sort run equilibrium futures prices of the soybean
complex have had little influence on crushings or production, but they have
been important determinants of inventory levels.
Lent, Rebecca (1993). "Welfare Assessment of Recreational Demand Using
Count Data." Draft report, National Marine Fisheries Service,
Silver Spring, MD.
Count data from the recreational bluefin tuna fishery are used to
estimate a truncated Poisson travel cost model. Angler consumer surplus (ACS)
approximated from model parameters is compared to OLS and previous studies'
estimates. ACS helps determine a rational quota allocation in the absence of
property rights based fishery management.
Lent, Rebecca (1994). "Recreational Fisheries and Limited Access."
Position Paper presented at the Limited Access Workshop, Seattle,
Washington, November 1-3. Highly Migratory Species Divison,
National Marine Fisheries Service, Silver Springs, Maryland.
Limited access and individual transferable quota management programs for
recreational fisheries are discussed. The existing limited literature is
presented and major points presented from each study that pertain to this
topic. Future research in the area is outlined.

1998 Atlantic Shark Regulations, and Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act Implementation." SAFE Report,
Memorandum for Shark Operations Teams Members, Highly Migratory
Species Division, National Marine Fisheries Service, Silver
Springs, Maryland, Oct. 22, 4 pp.
The 1997 Stock Assessment and Fishery Evaluation Report(SAFE) has been
assembled from (1) the 1997 Shark Evaluation Workshop (SEW) Annual Report with
attached memo; and (2) Chapter 4 of the Draft Amendment 1 to the Fishery
Management Plan for Sharks of the Atlantic Ocean (FMP) entitled Affected
Environment , which describes the social and economic aspects of the fishery.
Additionally, the section describing the functions and composition of the
Highly Migratory Species (HMS) Advisory Panel (AP); Federal Register notices
announcing NMFS s intent to prepare two Environmental Impact Statements and
hold Scoping Meetings; the HMS Scoping Document; a memo describing the NMFS s
interpretation of the precautionary approach; and the NOAA fisheries Strategic
Plan are also attached.
