Adjustments: Estimated dealer numbers have decreased from 844 to 657. There are several possible explanations/contributing factors: 1) there may have been a drop in the number of businesses seeking federal permits out of the Greater Atlantic Region. This is due to prohibition of permits due to past history or fewer businesses wanting to deal with the reporting requirements; 2) There could be a decrease in the overall number of dealer submitting landings. Several dealers maintain permits but don't submit landing data; 3) there were probably some estimation errors in 2012 that showed an incorrect increase from 726 dealers in 2010. Costs have been corrected; previously, an operating cost per dealer was actually based on labor costs, in error.
