The Pacific Region Of The Bureau Of Commercial Fisheries Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Pacific Region of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries The activities of the Bureau range from basic research on the populations of fish and the many factors influencing their abundance, to the product on the consumer's table. Between these extremes, the Bureau's work involves various types of problems in many fields of science and technology. The Bureau's program is financed from two major sources: (1) an annual appropriation by Congress and (2) saltonstall-kennedy funds, which represent a percentage of the duties paid on imported fishery products. Many pressing fishery problems in the Pacific Northwest are of concern to the Western States. Through persistent research by the fishery agencies of these States and the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries, these problems are being solved. Important to this effort is the supply of fishery scientists, educated in the colleges and universities throughout the United States. With the federal-state cooperative attitude and with the the dedicated people in the employ of the various agencies, we are confident that these great fishing resources will always be productive and contribute to the economy and well-being of the people.
