Creator:: Anderson, Christopher and Sutinen, Jon G.
Abstract:: The objective of this paper is to illustrate that economic institutions matter, i.e., that different rules of trade present different incentives for bidding, asking and trading in new markets, and that these different incentives lead to different price discovery patterns which yield materially different outcomes. In a laboratory tradable fishing...

Creator:: Newell, Richard G., Sanchirico, James N., and Kerr, Suzi
Abstract:: Fisheries worldwide continue to suffer from the negative consequences of open access. In 1986, New Zealand responded by establishing an individual transferable quota (ITQ) system that by 1998 included 33 species and more than 150 markets for fishing quotas. We assess these markets in terms of trends in market activity,...

Creator:: Arnason, Ragnar
Abstract:: It is now widely recognized that property rights based fisheries management regimes are well suited for generating efficiency in fisheries. Apart from access licences, which are very low quality property rights, individual quotas (IQs) and individual transferable quotas (ITQs) are the most widely applicable and, indeed, the most commonly applied...

Creator:: Anderson, Lee
Abstract:: With the publication of the NOAA Draft Policy on Catch Shares, which encourages US Management Councils to adopt Catch Share Programs (yet another new name for LAPs, ITQs, or IFQs) there will likely be more deliberations on such programs. With changes mandated in the revised Magnuson-Stevens Act and the suggestions...

Creator:: Uchida, Hirotsugu
Abstract:: The New England Multispecies (groundfish) fishery is about to implement the catch share management system, where self-identified groups of harvesters called sectors receive quota allocations of total allowable catch (TAC) proportional to the harvest history of their members. Joining a sector is voluntary, thus there will be both sector members...

Creator:: Scheld, Andrew, Anderson, Christopher, and Uchida, Hirotsugu
Abstract:: A new type of fisheries management approach termed catch share is set to be implemented in the US Northeast groundfish fisheries in May 2010. This approach gives a group of harvesters, called a sector, a portion of the TAC to manage independently - a hybrid of co-management and individual quota....

Creator:: Gilbert, Ben
Abstract:: The case for assigning private property rights in fisheries has been thoroughly studied but has lead to a new debate over whether rights should be allocated to groups or individuals. The New England groundfish fishery provides a rich context in which to study this question. Beginning in 2004, several dozen...

Creator:: Anderson, Christopher and Uchida, Hirotsugu
Abstract:: In many fisheries, harvesters of different scales, different gears, or on different sides of political boundaries crossed by a single stock are effectively managed separately. The New England Multispecies (groundfish) fishery is about to dramatically expand the number of management systems in place concurrently, by allocating portions of the total...

Creator:: Rountree, Barbara
Abstract:: Amendment 1 to the Golden Tilefish Fishery Management Plan (FMP), which implemented the most recent catch share program in the Northeast United States, became effective on November 1, 2009. It replaced a program that allocated a fixed percentage of annual quota to three groups of vessel owners with a program...
