SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    Marine recreational anglers are surveyed to collect catch and 
effort data, fish biology data, and angler socioeconomic 
characteristics. These data are required to carry out provisions of the 
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C. 
1801 et seq.), as amended, regarding conservation and management of 
fishery resources.
    Marine recreational fishing catch and effort data are collected 
through a combination of mail surveys, telephone surveys and on-site 
intercept surveys with recreational anglers. The Marine Recreational 
Information Program (MRIP) Fishing Effort Survey (FES) is a self-
administered, household mail survey that samples from a residential 
address frame to collect data on the number of recreational anglers and 
the number of recreational fishing trips. The survey estimates marine 
recreational fishing activity for all coastal states from Maine through 
Mississippi, as well as Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
    FES estimates are combined with estimates derived from 
complementary surveys of fishing trips, the Access-Point Angler 
Intercept Survey, to estimate total, state-level fishing catch, by 
species. These estimates are used in the development, implementation, 
and monitoring of fishery management programs by NOAA Fisheries, 
regional fishery management councils, interstate marine fisheries 
commissions, and state fishery agencies.

II. Method of Collection

    Information will be collected through self-administered mail 
surveys.
