Economic Status Reports for Groundfish Fisheries of the Gulf of Alaska and Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands
The Groundfish Economic Status Report summarizes available economic data about the federal groundfish fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea/Aleutian Islands. Published annually as an appendix to the Stock Assessment and Fishery Evaluation reports, the Economic Status Report presents summary statistics on catch, discards, prohibited species catch, ex-vessel and first-wholesale production and value, participation by small entities, and effort in these fisheries.
Current and and previous reports are available for download in PDF format. Note that the report title refers to the year of publication, and each report provides data on activity through the end of the year prior to publication. For example, the 2014 Groundfish Economic Status Report provides data through year 2013.
We invite users to provide feedback regarding the quality and usefulness of the report and recommendations for improvement. We welcome any and all comments and suggestions for improvements to the Economic Status Report, and have developed an online survey to facilitate user feedback:
