Were is the decrease??
2012 ...
1,057,783 pound quota + 15% overage =
1,216,450 pounds
2013....Following a 15% quota overage in 2012, the Massachusetts commercial striped bass fishery will operate under a reduced quota of
997,869 pounds in 2013.
15% of 1,057,783 is 158,667, so 2013 should be 899,116 pounds!! It is an actual Increase!
