OMB CONTROL NO. 0648-0606



Semi-structured Interview Guidance



Interview themes have been revised and designed primarily based on the experience of two prior data collection efforts under the original authorization. These interviews aim to: 1) allow for the introduction of information researchers may have missed but participants feel is very important to capture, 2) to expand upon provided by the study participant, and 3) to guide interviews where respondents declined to participate in the survey.

Guidance for all participants

  1. Determine what is important to an individual that was not captured through the survey.

  2. Determine the importance of the role the individual plays in the industry that may not have not been captured otherwise.

  3. Identify concerns not otherwise captured.

  4. Explore a better understanding of the impacts of the catch shares program on other fisheries.
