Abstract

With the passage of the Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976, marine fisheries management in the United States was apportioned to one of eight quasi-public regional management councils, consisting of representatives from industry, consumers, and the state and federal governments. The management process is itself a bargaining game among council members and interested parties, with the goal of determining what regulations, if any, are appropriate to balance the various social, biological, economic, bureaucratic, and political agendas that impact, and are impacted by, the council decisions.
