National Marine Fisheries Service manages the crab fisheries in the waters off the coast of Alaska under the Fishery Management Plan for Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Crab. The Crab Rationalization Program (Program) allocates Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands crab resources among harvesters, processors, and coastal communities. This collection-of-information authorizes an eligible entity and its commonly owned affiliates to combine North processor quota shares (PQS) and North catcher vessel owner quota shares (CVO QS) and exchange these shares for newly created converted catcher/processor owner quota shares (CPO QS). Allowing entities to convert PQS and CVO QS to CPO QS would allow them to harvest and process crab onboard a catcher/processor. Electing to exercise this provision could reduce each eligible entity's operating costs associated with purchasing crab, processing crab on land or in a stationary floater processor, and complying with the Program's arbitration system.
