25. Areas Important to Fisheries
a) areas of high catch (e.g., high total pounds landed and high
value of landed catch); or
b) areas where highly valued fish are caught even if in low
abundance or by few fishers; or
c) areas that are important on a seasonal basis; or
d) areas important to commercial or recreational fishing
activities, including those of individual ports or particular fleets;
or
e) habitat areas that support food or prey species important to
commercially and recreationally caught fish and shellfish
species.

50. Formula for Success
Political & Policy Framework is in place:
25 years of state ocean planning:
● Statutory direction & expectations
● Ocean management policies (in state CZMP)
● Tested process (agencies, stakeholders)
● Literacy/expectations among the public
Technical Framework is in place:
● State agency science/technical capacity
● Academic research capacity at OSU/UO, etc
● Technical expertise from NGO, university partners
● IT capacity within state CZM program
Partnerships, leveraging, and trust
51. Benefits of Marine Spatial Planning
For industry and stakeholders:
Increases certainty for investments
Reduces costs in time and effort at project scale
Strengthens industry – industry ties
For government:
Promotes better decisions
Streamlines, clarifies decision process
Reduces the Oops! Factor
For public:
Provides transparency
Preserves wide range of public values
