Determine whether the instruction

conflict of interest. Except for
reimbursement of official Board-related
travel and per diem, Board members
serve without compensation.
The public or interested organizations
may submit written statements to the

intent of the proposed study is to assess how and why commercial crew
working conditions may have changed since the initial 2011/2012
assessment. Data needed for this assessment support fishery performance
measures developed by the SSB, which include information on financial
viability, distributional outcomes, stewardship, governance, and well-
being. Data to be collected include demographic information on crew,

practices, job satisfaction, job opportunities, and attitudes toward
fisheries management.

policies and programs will affect the social and economic
characteristics of those involved in the commercial fishing industry.
To help meet these requirements of NEPA and MSA, the SSB will collect
data on an ongoing basis to track how socio-economic characteristics of
fisheries are changing over time and the impact of fishery management
policies and programs implemented in New England and the Mid-Atlantic
regions.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit organizations.
