and Capacity Reduction. Environmental and Natural Resources Policy
Division, Congressional Research Service, The Library of Congress,

Both experience and economic models show that, in the absence of
enforceable access or catch restrictions, competition among commercial
fishermen results in an expansion of fishing capacity and effort beyond the
sustainable limits of the fish population being pursued. Although sometimes
conceived as a means for easing financial hardship caused by reduced landings
of fish, capacity reduction is more often viewed as a measure to realign
effort and eventually increase sustainable catch levels. Unlike economic aid,
however, capacity reduction aims to provide long-term benefits to those
choosing, or able, to remain within the industry and may thus indirectly
confer benefits to some of the communities that these fisheries support.
