• Description:
  The attached Excel Workbook (pir.asll.ceta.1620.xlsx) includes annual estimates and the estimated 5-year average of take and number of takes with a dead or serious injury determination (DSI) in the American Samoa permitted longline fishery for years 2016–2020. Estimates are provided for the fisheries’ fishing grounds and within the American Samoa Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). The workbook includes a worksheet labeled ‘key’ that provides definitions of the column headings and the items being estimated. Methods for estimating the takes and DSI for 2020 are described in this report. McCracken (2019) describes the methods for estimating the takes for 2016–2019.
