Abstract
  • In an environment of limited resources and expanded management expectations, fisheries regulators face hard decisions about how intensively to regulate different stocks. The Fishery Management Councils are required to regulate harvest of all stocks in a sustainable manner, but have discretion on how much regulatory effort to invest in individual species or species complexes. What drives regulators to invest management resources in one species over another? Is this dynamic the same nation-wide or does it vary by region? These questions have implications for understanding regulatory decision-making and how management resources are prioritized. Regulatory activity for a stock is represented by the number of citations in the Federal Register (notices, proposed rules, and rules) over a recent 5-year period for each species in each management council region. Predictor variable data for the same stocks are from the FSA management attributes database consisting of current and historical management, biological, and economic characteristics of each fishery.
