Description

Abstract: This report was prepared for the Marine Reserve Program (MR Program), Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW). The MR Program is responsible for monitoring the effects from establishing five marine reserve areas (MR's) in the Oregon Territorial Sea (TS). The information in this report updates information about overall trends in the Oregon fishing industry, and more specifically, describes the nearshore fisheries that would most likely be affected by MR management. The following three summary sections discuss trends and economic contributions for Oregon commercial, marine recreational, and nearshore fisheries. The economic contributions are expressed as generated household income which includes the multiplier effect. All prices, harvest revenue, and economic contributions are expressed in 2017 dollars, except where noted otherwise. Landing volume is expressed in round pound equivalents.
