Methodology and Definitions Survey Procedures: All known trout operators and hatcheries were contacted during the first half of January by mail, telephone, and personal interview. Estimation Procedures: Sound statistical methodology was employed to derive the estimates from reported data. All data were analyzed for unusual values. Data from each operation were compared to their own past operating profile and to trends of similar operations. Data for missing operations were estimated based on similar operations or historical data. Reliability: Trout production estimates are based on a census of all known active producers and, therefore, have no sampling variability. However, estimates may be subject to errors such as omissions, duplication, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing of the data. These errors are minimized through strict quality controls in the edit and summarization process and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness. Revision policy: Estimates for the previous year are subject to revision when current estimates are made. Revisions are the result of late or corrected data. Definitions: 12" or Longer Fish: Grown commercially for food, usually weighing from three-fourths to one and one-half pounds. 6"-12" Fish: Usually stockers that weigh less than three-fourths of a pound. Fingerlings: Fish usually from 1 to 6 inches long. Live Haulers: Person who buys live fish on the farm and functions as a middleman. Chemicals: Includes losses from pesticides or herbicide poisoning. Disease: Includes losses from both parasitic and bacterial caused sickness. Drought: Includes losses from lack of water causing oxygen depletion. Floods: Includes losses from too much water washing the fish away. Predators: Includes losses from mink, otters, birds, and other animals. Theft/Vandalism: The unauthorized removal of fish and/or the destruction of property causing a loss of fish by intentional acts by persons known or unknown. ACCESS TO REPORTS!!
