Alaska Administrative Code › Title 20 - Miscellaneous Boards and Commissions › Chapter 05 - Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission › Article 6 - Priority Classification Point System › 20 AAC 05.789 - Point system for the Southeastern Alaska shrimp beam trawl fishery

Current through May 31, 2024
(a) Past
				participation. The commission will award a maximum of 12 points to an applicant
				for past participation in the Southeastern Alaska shrimp beam trawl fishery. An
				applicant who commercially harvested shrimp with beam trawl gear during the
				period 1993 - 1996 will be awarded points for the years in which the applicant
				participated as a gear operator based on the following:
Year Pounds Harvested by an Points Applicant 1996 2000 pounds
				  or more 6 Less than 2000 pounds 3 1995 2000 pounds or more 6 Less than 2000
				  pounds 3 1994 2000 pounds or more 4 Less than 2000 pounds 2 1993 2000 pounds or
				  more 2 Less than 2000 pounds 1
(b) There is a rebuttable presumption that an
				applicant was a crewmember and not a gear operator for a year if the applicant's
				commercial harvest was less than 35 percent of the total commercial harvest taken
				in the fishery and delivered from the vessel during that year. The presumption
				can be rebutted with a preponderance of evidence showing that the applicant was
				the sole gear operator on the vessel at the time the shrimp were harvested or
				that the applicant was a partner with one or more other gear operators on the
				vessel.
(c) Consistent participation.
				The commission will award a maximum of 30 points to an applicant for consistent
				participation. The points awarded will be based on the number of statistical
				weeks of the year that the applicant commercially harvested shrimp in the fishery
				as a gear operator according to the following:
Years Statistical Weeks of Commercial Points Harvest 1996 7
				  weeks or more 15 2 weeks to 6 weeks 6 Less than 2 weeks 0 1995 10 weeks or more
				  15 2 weeks to 9 weeks 6 Less than 2 weeks 0 1994 10 weeks or more 10 3 weeks to 9
				  weeks 4 Less than 3 weeks 0 1993 7 weeks or more 5 3 weeks to 6 weeks 2 Less than
				  3 weeks 0
(d) Economic
				Dependence. An applicant will be awarded a maximum of four points if the
				applicant owned as of January 1, 1997, a vessel that the applicant used or
				intended to use in the fishery.

				one or more other gear operators on the vessel.
(c) Consistent participation. The commission
				will award a maximum of 18 points to an applicant for consistent participation.
