Description:The National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NMFS) National Bycatch Reduction Strategy guides NMFS’ efforts to reduce bycatch and bycatch mortality. To aid in the implementation of the Strategy, NMFS’ Office of Science and Technology (OST) formulated an action item to advance ideas, solutions, and research regarding economic aspects of bycatch reduction in U.S. fisheries. To advance these ideas and solutions, OST convened a workshop on the economic aspects of bycatch reduction at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, CA on October 29-31, 2019. The workshop focused on incentive-based approaches to bycatch reduction. Workshop participants included researchers from multiple disciplines as well as fisheries managers and stakeholders (see list in Appendix A). The goal of the workshop was to discuss the application of economic research to real-world bycatch problems using a case-study approach.
