This project was undertaken on short notice to assist the Caribbean Fishery Management Council in its efforts to anticipate and plan for social and economic impacts potentially resulting from designation of a marine reserve south of the island of St. John, in the U.S. Virgin Islands.  As such, the objectives of the Rapid Socioeconomic Evaluation were straightforward in nature; these called for: (a) identification of persons known to use the areas in and around the proposed MCD; (b) characterization of basic patterns of use of the areas in question; (c) identification and analysis of local concerns about the MCD; and (d) description of potentially affected economic sectors and communities.   Based on data gathered during the course of the study, it was found that the socioeconomic and fishing-specific operational impacts of the proposed MCD would likely be significant since the area was used by or benefited various fleets and sectors.  While a more comprehensive Social Impact Assessment was recommended, such work was not funded.  The Hind Bank MCD was established in 1999.
