       HARD DATA THRU  DEC94  DEC94  SEP94

  Hard data for this report was extracted from the PacFIN database on 13FEB95

  HG = Harvest Guideline

  unkn = This catch statistic does not reside in the PacFIN database.

  The nontrawl (NTW) sablefish catch displayed on this report includes catches
  for both the limited entry and open access fisheries. The nontrawl limited
  entry sablefish harvest guideline is 2478 metric tons and the open access
  sablefish harvest guideline is 420 metric tons. Starting in 1995 this non-
  trawl sablefish catch statistic no longer includes treaty Indian catch.

  V&C = Van&Col = U.S. Vancouver & Columbia INPFC areas combined
  V&C&E&M = U.S. Vancouver & Columbia & Eureka & Monterey INPFC areas combined
  V&NC = U.S. Vancouver & No. Columbia (No. of Cape Falcon) areas combined
  E&SC = Eureka & So. Columbia (So. of Cape Falcon) areas combined
  E&M&C = Eureka & Monterey & Conception INPFC areas combined

  SBTS+URCK = Sebastes Complex plus Unspecified Rockfish. Due to the large
              amount of rockfish catch classified as unspecified rockfish
              (primarily in the Monterey and Conception areas) SBTS+URCK is
              the best estimate of catch for Sebastes Complex for the E&M&C
              area.
