• Description:
  "The report summarized current perceptions on allocation decisions in fisheries management (see Section 6.1 ) , and concludes with a list of five actions that could be taken to improve the allocation process, including compiling a list of allocation decisions (management and court decisions). In this paper, we compile relevant court decisions (Section 8) and summarize fishery regulations that create or modify commercial and recreational allocations (Appendix 1) or catch share program allocations (Appendix 2). In addition, this paper identifies the current guidance and policies related to fishery allocation in the United States, and provides examples of what states and other countries have done to successfully tackle allocation issues. Given the significant amount of information contained in this paper, summaries are provided at the beginning of each section"--Introduction.
