This excel spreadsheet is the result of merging at the port level of several of the in-house fisheries databases in combination with other demographic databases such as the U.S. census. The fisheries databases used include port listings, weighout (dealer) landings, permit information on homeports and owner cities of residence, dealer permit information, and logbook records. The database consolidated port names in line with USGS and Census conventions, and corrected typographical errors, non-conventional spellings, or other issues.
Each row is a community, and there may be confidential data since not all communities have 3 or more entities for the various variables.

Access Constraints:NEFSC Data Access Constraint:

| Abstract: |
This excel spreadsheet is the result of merging at the port level of several of the in-house fisheries databases in combination with other demographic databases such as the U.S. census. The fisheries databases used include port listings, weighout (dealer) landings, permit information on homeports and owner cities of residence, dealer permit information, and logbook records. The database consolidated port names in line with USGS and Census conventions, and corrected typographical errors, non-conventional spellings, or other issues. Each row is a community, and there may be confidential data since not all communities have 3 or more entities for the various variables. |
| Purpose: |
As specified in the Magnuson-Stevenson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1996 (and reauthorized in 2007), NMFS is required to enumerate the economic impacts of the policies it implements on the harvesting and processing sectors of the commercial fishing industry, as well as to coastal communities. |
| Notes: |
SAS file (community2010.sas) resides on my home directory at: \\net\home2\stat\jolson\webcom. It spits out a SAS dataset which I usually convert to an excel file. |
