NEPA Guidance from CEQ
Direct effects which are caused by the action and occur at the same time and place.
Indirect effects which are caused by the action and later in time or further removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable. Indirect effects may include growth inducing effects and other effects related to induced changes in the pattern of land use, population density or growth rate, and related effects on air and water and other natural systems, including ecosystems.

Application of CEQ Guidance to this Analysis
Directly Affected Stakeholders are those stakeholders that would be specifically cited in the regulations
Directly Affected Resources are those groundfish species for which IFQs or cumulative trip limits would be issued.
All other stakeholders and resources are considered to be indirectly affected.

Additional Details on Harvester Classifications
Harvesters are classified because impacts will vary by class
Classes attempt to group permit holders and vessels that have similar sets of activities.
Classification will be made based on the landings of the permit holder and the vessel to which the permit is currently attached
Catcher Processors are included because they would be issued IFQ under Alternatives 2, 3 and 4
![Page 8: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Condition Indicators
Condition Indicators are established for directly and indirectly affected stakeholders and resources
The effects of the alternatives can generally be quantified by changes in the condition indicators
The direction and magnitude of change are empirical issues
Whether the change is significant is typically a judgment made by the analysts
![Page 9: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Indicators for Trawl Harvesters Catch by species Incidental catch by species Discarded catch by species Distribution of catches by month Ex-vessel revenues from
groundfish Operating costs Net revenues
![Page 10: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Indicators for Trawl Harvesters (continued)
Number of participating trawl catcher vessels
Number of permit holders Distribution of permit holders by
community Number of trips per year Number of fishing days per year Number of crew members Distribution of crew members by
community Crew and skipper shares
![Page 11: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Indicators for Trawl Harvesters (continued)
Some effects of the alternatives may not be measurable by quantifiable indicators. These include impacts on vessel safety, market power vis-à-vis processors, and others.
![Page 12: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Significance Criteria for Trawl Harvesters
Whether a quantifiable change is significant is typically a judgment of the analyst
Significance Criteria must be specified For trawl harvester indicators, the
Consulting Team has made the judgment that a 20 percent change in the indicator will be considered significant
![Page 13: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Landings of Bought-out Permit The outline lists Bought-out Trawl
Catcher Vessels as a directly affected stakeholder.
Technically this is incorrect. Under the IFQ Alternatives, permit holders that remain in the fishery following the buyout would be allocated the catch history of bought-out permits. While the bought-out permit holders are not directly affected, their landings will be described in the same section as other harvest vessel classes.
![Page 14: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Processors of Trawl-caught Groundfish
Issues with Classification Fish Ticket data indicate first receiver of fish Definition of processor in Alternatives is
ambiguous Treatment of Buyers that are not “processors” Number of actual processors is relatively low Confidentiality is an issue
Classification still an unresolved issue A separate workshop session will be held on
this issue

Non-Trawl Commercial Harvesters
Non-Trawl Harvesters These may be indirectly affected because
limited entry trawl harvesters also participate in other fisheries and rationalization of the limited entry trawl fishery may allow LE trawl permit holders to increase their participation in these other fisheries.

Other Indirectly Affected Stakeholders
Recreational Harvesters Potential effects have yet to be identified
Tribes While not necessarily directly affected by
federal and state management measures, they are directly involved in the Council process and craft their groundfish management measures in cooperation with federal and state managers
![Page 33: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Groundfish Species
Species broken up into two categories (overfished and non-overfished)
Quota setting process will remain unchanged
Of concern is the spatial/temporal character of the groundfish fishery
![Page 34: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Other Affected Fish Resources Species caught incidentally in
fisheries targeting groundfish Identify emphasis species; i.e.
Pacific halibut, coastal pelagic species, etc.
Concern is the possible change in the spatial/temporal character of the groundfish fishery

Other affected Protected Resources
Identify emphasis species Concern is the possible change
in the spatial/temporal character of the groundfish fishery
Examples, salmon and other species protected by ESA

Habitat Areas
Identified MPAs and areas closed to trawling
No direct effects from Trawl IQ
For areas closed to trawling, no indirect effects of trawling
If change gear, may have indirect effects
![Page 39: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Essential Fish Habitat
No direct effect of IQ on EFH Would fishers change area,
gear? Want to assess indirect impacts
relative to status quo? Fish closer to port? Fish farther away in higher CPUE? Switch to longline?
![Page 40: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Ecosystem Effects
No direct effects Want to assess relative effects
of indirect changes from IQ– predators, prey, protected species, habitat
![Page 41: Affected Stakeholders and Resources April 2006 Marcus Hartley and Members of the Consulting Team Presentation to Pacific Fishery Management Council Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649eb15503460f94bb7dee/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Area Management
How would changes in area fished, season fished, or gear fished affect the resources?
If no direct changes in behavior, then no indirect change for resources
Would effort concentrate, and affect distributions of commercial and other species?
As direct changes increase, requires more analysis of indirect effects
