Description

Abstract: 1n 1987, U.S. Department of Interior's Minerals Management Service began a 5-year oil and gas leasing program for areas along the nation's outer continental ,shelf. Lease Sale #132 includes ocean areas off of Oregon and Washington. The 5- year program requires preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement for each Lease Sale area. In 1988, the Minerals Management Service contracted with the Pacific Marine Fisheries Commission, Oregon and Washington fisheries agencies, and the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission to develop fisheries information needed for the Lease Sale #132 Environmental Impact Statement: The contract requires Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife to develop quantitative and qualitative data bases describing the major fisheries occurring off Oregon. This report presents the qualitative fisheries information and is intended to fulfill Item 2c, Task 6 of the contract.

Purpose: The goals of the qualitative portion of the fisheries data base project are: 1) To map selected commercial and recreational fishing grounds off Oregon, and 2) To describe factors influencing fisheries on the fishing grounds. Information used to fulfill these goals was collected primarily through a series of interviews with knowledgeable fishers and biologists who mapped fishing locations and described the nature of the fisheries on each fishing ground.
