About the survey:
This survey was conducted by PSMFC, as part of a cooperative agreement with NMFS.
The purpose of this survey was to provide information about the economic performance and significance of the halibut charter fleet. The survey provided baseline-data to evaluate some of the economic effects of management proposals, such as IFQ and GHL.
Survey contents:
The survey consisted of several parts:
- Screening Questions
- This section was used to make sure the correct person and vessel was contacted as well as to identify whether their last charter occured during the appropriate season.
- Trip Questions
- Questions about length of trip, distance traveled as well as species of fish targeted, caught, kept and returned.
- Payment Questions
- A section on how passengers paid for their trip including what services were provided or available for an additional cost.
