Provided

with
this
note:

I'm
attaching
a
workbook
that
reports
our
regional
estimates
of
foregone
commerical
and
recreational
yield
for
Northern
California
and
Northern
Atlantic
We
will
provide
a
detailed
report
of
our
methods
in
due
course.
For
now,
here's
a
brief
synopsis
of
what
you're
seeing.

The
basic
modeling
approach
for
deriving
foregone
yield
from
I&
E
is
the
same
that
we've
used
in
previous
case
studies.
We
have
introduced
a
few
relatively
minor
changes
to
the
procedure
based
on
public
comments
and
other
shortcomings
in
the
procedure
that
we
identified
ourselves.
The
most
significant
of
the
changes
are
a
(
1)
a
correction
of
the
algorithm
that
calculates
foregone
production
and
(
2)
relaxing
the
assumption
that
all
impinged
individuals
were
age
1.
Now
we
are
assuming
that
the
ages
of
impinged
fish
are
1
and
greater,
and
follow
an
age
distribution
that
is
implied
by
the
associated
survival
rates.
These
methods
have
not
yet
been
applied
to
our
previous
case
studies.
They
have
been
applied
to
our
new
case
studies,
which
include
Humboldt,
Potrero,
Morro
Bay,
Moss
Landing,
and
Diablo
Canyon
(
N.
California)
and
Millstone
(
N.
Atlantic)
