These catch rules are codified in regional Fishery Management Plans according to requirements of the Sustainable Fisheries Act. In the U.S., approximately 500 federally managed fish and shellfish populations are managed under approximately 50 Fishery Management Plans. About 200 of these populations are assessed each year, based on a prioritized schedule for their current status. Despite this, many minor species have never been quantitatively assessed. Although the pace is slower than that for weather forecasting, fish stock assessments are operational models for fisheries management.
