advantages, especially compared to a limit on input factors, but implicitly
assumes that total yield from the fishery can be reasonably predicted (not
true) and that an individual quota can be enforced. Although areal leases can
be used for fugitive resources, this approach might not gain public acceptance
because of possible monopolistic aspects (wrong). Taxes or fees return the
greatest revenues to the general public and do not create a property or access
right. All approaches, except the limit on input factors, promote efficiency
but might be more expensive to enforce. Limits on inputs factors might be
most acceptable to fishermen and easiest to enforce but have proven to be
inflexible and ineffective for managing common property resource.

This report describes trends in recreational and commercial fisheries in
the overview section and summarizes the general status of the major finfish
and shellfish resources off the northeast coast of the United States from Cape
Hatteras to Nova Scotia through 1986 in the species synopses section. Many of
the assessments are described in Laboratory Reference Documents at the Woods
Hole Laboratory and may be obtained upon request. The most recent complete
assessments for each stock are cited in the appropriate species synopsis.

The final supplemental environmental impact statement (FSEIS) describes
final regulations being promulgated by NOAA, NMFS that require shrimp trawlers
25 feet and longer in offshore waters from North Carolina through Texas to use
turtle excluder devices (TEDs) during certain times of the year. Shrimp
trawlers less than 25 feet long are required to restrict their tow times to 90
minutes or less. Shrimp trawlers in inshore waters must also limit their tow
times to 90 minutes or less.
