Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation attempts to evaluate the appetite and attitudes of fishermen to change, including The Paradox of Fishermen, which is the reluctance by fishermen to change while consistently responding to day-to-day change in their working environment. It also attempts to evaluate the performance of three industry groups in facilitating change on behalf of member fishermen, and to develop a comprehensive organizational change management model to facilitate change in the New England groundfish fishery. The three industry groups were the Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association in Maine, USA, the Cape Cod Commercial Fisherman’s Alliance in Massachusetts, USA, and a group of fishermen from Queensland, Australia involved in an Environmental Management System. Fishermen from each group were invited to complete a questionnaire comprising multiple open- and closed-ended questions. In addition, members of the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea (ICES) Fishing Technology and Fish Behavior Working Group (WGFTFB) were invited to complete a similar questionnaire regarding their perceptions of fishermen’s appetite and attitude to change. A total of 54 fishermen responded to the questionnaire, representing at least one-third of fishermen involved in each industry group, and 47 responses were received from the WGFTFB. Loss of control, mistrust, and lack of reward, were the reasons fishermen primarily gave for their reluctance to change, while WGFTFB members primarily thought fishermen were reluctant to change because of concerns over cost and lack of incentives. Support for The Paradox of Fishermen was found, but also evidence that the paradox may be a perception based on not fully understanding the attitudes of fishermen. The performance of each industry group was evaluated through the lens of the Kotter model of organizational change. Fishermen were typically found to have joined each industry group following recognition of an urgent need to change, although there was disagreement regarding the type of change and remedial action. Fishermen provided evidence that each industry group does not adequately communicate its vision statement or provide adequate support to guide behavior consistent with the vision. No evidence was found that any group facilitated change using a formal change management model, although there was piecemeal evidence that some change management theory and principles had been applied. A new, comprehensive organizational change model for application in the New England groundfish fishery was developed. This model provides a clear and holistic approach to help change agents institute change in the commercial fishing industry, be they fishermen, researchers, managers, or other stakeholders. The model is also sufficiently adaptable to facilitate enhanced ecological, economic, and social outcomes from fishing activity, and is therefore an ideal platform upon which to launch future change initiatives in the commercial fishing industry.

Book excerpt: The Draft EIS provides decision-makers and the public with an evaluation of the environmental, social, and economic effects of alternative harvest strategies for the federally managed groundfish fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) and the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands (BSAI). The EIS examines alternative harvest strategies that comply with Federal regulations, the Fishery Management Plans for the GOA and BSAI groundfish fisheries, and the Magnuson-Stevens Act. The harvest strategies are applied to the best available scientific information to derive the total allowable catch for the groundfish fisheries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 2007, National Geographic warned, "The oceans are in deep blue trouble. From the northernmost reaches of the Greenland Sea to the swirl of the Antarctic Circle, we are gutting our seas of fish." There were legitimate grounds for concern. After increasing more than fourfold between 1950 and 1994, the global wild fish catch reached a plateau and stagnated despite exponential growth in the fishing industry. As numerous scientific reports showed, many fish stocks around the world collapsed, creating a genuine global overfishing crisis. Making Seafood Sustainable analyzes the ramifications of overfishing for the United States by investigating how fishers, seafood processors, retailers, government officials, and others have worked together to respond to the crisis. Historian Mansel G. Blackford examines how these players took steps to make fishing in some American waters, especially in Alaskan waters, sustainable. Critical to these efforts, Blackford argues, has been government and industry collaboration in formulating and enforcing regulations. What can be learned from these successful experiences? Are they applicable elsewhere? What are the drawbacks? Making Seafood Sustainable addresses these questions and suggests that sustainable seafood management can be made to work. The economic and social costs incurred in achieving sustainable resource usage are significant, but there are ways to mitigate them. More broadly, this study illustrates ways to manage commonly held natural resources around the world—land, water, oil, and so on—in sustainable ways.
