United States, National Marine Fisheries Service

A2 - Northeast Fisheries Science Center (U.S.)

AB - The MMPA requires NMFS and USFWS to review these reports annually for strategic stocks of marine mammals and at least every 3 years for stocks determined to be non - strategic. Included in this report as appendices are : 1) a summary of serious injury/mortality estimates of marine mammals in observed U.S. fisheries (Appendix I), 2) a summary of NMFS records of large whale/human interactions examined for this assessment (Appendix II), 3) detailed fisheries information (Appendix III), and 4) summary tables of abundance estimates generated over recent years and the surveys from which they are derived (Appendix IV)
