O knihe

Excerpt from Reauthorization of the Ocean and Coastal Programs of Noaa: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Oceanography, Gulf of Mexico, and the Outer Continental Shelf of the Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session on Noaa Reauthorization, November 3, 19

Today, over 54 percent of the United States' population lives in the coastal zone, including the Great Lakes, which consists of only 10 percent of the total land mass of the United States.

Coastal recreation and tourism attracts millions of visitors each year. Over 75 percent of total commercial landings and 80 to 90 percent of the recreational catch comes from species that are de pendent on coastal habitats during some part of their life cycle. Seventeen million Americans use these waters for recreational fishing, generating $18 billion annually.
