Source for revenues and expenses: state agencies; most data for 1993; data for some states is 1994. The first six columns show revenues, by source, in thousands of dollars. Total revenues and expenses are also in thousands of dollars. "Percent user fees" shows the share of total expenses covered by user fees and federal grants. Data are combined for Pennsylvania fish and wildlife departments and Florida game and marine fisheries. Marine fisheries for other states not included if managed by a separate department from wildlife. The three missing states account for less than 2 percent of nationwide totals.
