From the minutes of the November SSC Meeting in Charleston:
DR. WHITEHEAD: I will add to that if separating quota by gear is a good idea and then separating quota by region has been suggested is a good idea, it is just a hop, skip and a jump to separating quota by fishermen to be a good idea; which would extend the season.
DR. WHITEHEAD: Yes, the transferability of endorsements can only increase the economic efficiency of this amendment where economic efficiency can be measured by profits.
