  • Seafood Trade Relief Program Frequently Asked Questions Last Updated: September 18, 2020
    Seafood Trade Relief Program Frequently Asked Questions Last Updated: September 18, 2020 Eligibility Q: Who is eligible to participate in the Seafood Trade Relief Program (STRP)? A: U.S. commercial fishermen who have a valid federal or state license or permit to catch seafood who bring their catch to shore and sell or transfer them to another party. That other party must be a legally permitted or licensed seafood dealer. Alternatively, the catch can be processed at sea and sold by the same legally permitted entity that harvested or processed the product. Q: I don’t participate in any USDA programs. Can I apply for STRP? A: Yes. Prior participation in USDA programs is not a prerequisite. Q: Is there an Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) limit to participate in STRP? A: Yes. To participate, a person or legal entity’s AGI cannot exceed $900,000 (using the average for the 2016, 2017, and 2018 tax years). However, the AGI limit does not apply if 75 percent or more of an eligible person’s or legal entity’s AGI comes from seafood production, farming, ranching, forestry, or related activities. Q: As a tribal fisherman, the treaty does not require me to submit annual income tax returns for fishing. Will this affect my ability to apply to STRP? A: No, that does not affect the application process. Tribal fishermen should submit their applications to FSA. Guidance on documentation by tribal members to certify compliance of meeting the adjusted gross income limit of $900K is forthcoming. Eligible Seafood Q: What seafood is eligible? A: Eligible seafood species must have been subject to retaliatory tariffs and suffered more than $5 million in retaliatory trade damages.

  • Lake Mattamuskeet Frequently Asked Questions
    1 Lake Mattamuskeet Frequently Asked Questions Since so many of these questions refer to monitoring activities in the Lake and Pamlico Sound, you may want to reference the following pages: o Summary of Lake Monitoring activities: http://nc.water.usgs.gov/projects/mattamuskeet/ o Summary of Bell Island Pier activities: http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=f52ab347d5e84ccc921b 75c34fea42d5&extent=-77.5214,34.7208,-75.2252,36.3212 1. How deep is the lake? Lake depth varies from a few inches to five feet, with an average depth ranging from two to three feet depending on the season. Water levels are deepest in late fall, winter, early spring and during years with above average rainfall due to evaporation and precipitation. The deepest portions are located in the northwest portion of the lake. (see bathymetric map below). You can access the current water levels by visiting the USGS website (East and West) for Lake Mattamuskeet. Updated 10/12/16 2 2. Why is the lake so high/low? Lake levels fluctuate on a daily, seasonal and yearly basis. Water levels are primarily determined by climatic conditions. Generally, seasonal lake levels follow a pattern of being lower in the summer due to high evaporation rates and higher in fall, winter and spring due to lower evaporation rates and greater precipitation. Lake levels will increase by a few inches after a heavy rain. During wet years with lots of precipitation, water levels will rise; during drought years, water levels will fall. You can access current water levels by visiting the USGS website for Lake Mattamuskeet (East and West).

  • Fishery-Independent Sampling: Florida
    Fishery-Independent Sampling: Florida SEDAR27-RD-03 Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Fish and Wildlife Research Institute, Fisheries Independent Monitoring Program Procedures and Gear Description Background Two sampling designs (stratified-random and fixed-station) were initially employed by the FIM program to assess the status of fishery stocks in Florida estuaries. Both fixed-station and stratified-random sampling surveys provided information on length-frequency, age structure, reproductive condition, and relative abundance of fish populations. Fixed-station samples, however, cannot be statistically expanded to describe the fishery stocks beyond the actual sampling sites, while stratified-random samples can be extrapolated to describe an entire estuary. Monthly fixed-station sampling, therefore, was terminated in 1996. Monthly stratified-random sampling is currently conducted year-round using 21.3-m seines, 6.1-m otter trawls, and 183-m haul seines. A third sampling design (directed) was added to the program in 1993. The directed sampling surveys also provide information on relative abundance, length- frequency, age structure, and reproductive condition of fish populations; however, these surveys target commercially or recreationally important species (red drum, striped mullet, and spotted seatrout) that appeared to be undersampled by the gears used in the stratified-random sampling surveys. In directed sampling, nets are set upon visually detected schools of fish or in areas where high concentrations of the target species are expected to occur. While directed-sampling surveys for striped mullet continue, surveys for red drum and spotted seatrout were terminated in 1999, as the numbers and sizes of these species collected during stratified-random sampling proved to be adequate for stock assessment.
