Specifically, the surveys intend to collect information on: gallons of fuel used for the fishing trip, price per gallon of fuel, cost of ice used, cost of bait & chum used, cost of fishing gear lost, and the engine type of the boat. These economic data are collected through an add-on to boat-based creel surveys initiated by local fisheries agencies in CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam to collect fisheries dependent data. The data collection program was implemented in April 2009 in CNMI, August 2009 in American Samoa, and September 2011 in Guam. The objective of the data collection project is to collect fishing expense data for small boat fisheries in CNMI, American Samoa, and Guam in the three island areas to support effective fishery management on a continuous basis.

The response rate of the economic data has increased over time, and currently about 70%-80% of creel survey respondents also provide trip-level economic data. After the data were collected through in-person interview, data were entered into the data entry file developed by WPacFIN. Then the entered data were provided to the Socioeconomics division of PIFSC for cleaning process including logic checking, skipping patterns, and outliers. Finally the cleaned data were used to generate data report. otherRestrictions otherRestrictions Access Constraints: None | Use Constraints: None
