FISHERY TECHNOLOGICAL RESEARCH PROGRAM Usually, in June of each year, representatives of the fishery and allied industries and personnel of the Technological Section of the Service's Branch of Commercial Fisheries meet in Washington, D, C, to discuss the progress of projects during the past year and to suggest projects for the new fiscal year's program. This year, as a result of program planning for the research initiated under Public Law 466, usually referred to as the Saltonstall-Kennedy Act, the Washington office personnel of the Section and the Chiefs of the four Technological research laboratories met with in- dustry members as the need arose throughout the year to discuss the development of a fishery technological research program for fiscal year 1956. These meetings, together with the continuing contacts with industry at each of the laboratories, sup- plemented the usual annual meeting and assisted the Service in formulating a sound research program based on national interest. At the Technological Section Conference of laboratory heads on June 14, 1955, in Washington, D. C., the progress on projects during fiscal year 1955 was reviewed. Then, the technological research program for the fiscal year 1956 was discussed, together with the contracts negotiated as a result of the research conducted under Public Law 466. The basic program thus arrived at, plus the necessary liaison on these research contracts, constitutes the research program for fiscal 1956. This article consists of: 1. A summary of the progress on technological research projects for fiscal year 1955. 2. A list of reports issued by the Technological Section during the year, 3. A list of the research projects now under contract. 4. The new program for fiscal year 1956. Technological research is carried out in four field laboratories located in East Boston, Mass., College Park, Md., Seattle, Wash., and
