Description:

"The design and implementation of the 'Survey on the Socio-Economic Aspects of Commercial Fishing Crew in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic' (hereafter referred to as Crew Survey) is part of several new and ongoing data collection efforts to support the social scientific investigations of the region's fisheries. Not only does it target a hard-to-reach population of fishermen, it presents a structured opportunity for these fishing participants to voice their perceptions, concerns, and ideas about fisheries management. The survey began in the autumn of 2012, lasted approximately 1 year, and interviewed over 400 fishermen. This document provides an overview of the survey's background and objectives, including the development of the survey, the means of its implementation, and a synopsis of basic data summaries over the range of questions asked. A companion survey of permit holders, the 'Survey on the Socio-Economic Aspects of Commercial Fishing Vessel Owners in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic' (Owner Survey), was implemented approximately a year later and will be detailed in a later document"--Introduction.
