Introduction


This report collects information on Gulf of Alaska Management Area (GOA) groundfish trawl operations. Pursuant to applicable regulations, data and identifiers reported may be used for program enforcement and determination of qualification for federal fisheries permit renewal. Consequently, identifiers and data may be disclosed to NOAA Enforcement, NOAA General Counsel, the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice, the Federal Trade Commission, and NOAA Restricted Access Management Program.


Each person who held an LLP license designated for a catcher vessel and trawl gear and endorsed for the Central or Western GOA during a calendar year must submit an Annual Trawl Catcher Vessel EDR for that calendar year for each trawl catcher vessel operated in the Central or Western GOA by that person.


A completed EDR must be submitted for each calendar year on or before June 1 of the following year. An EDR must be timely and all information fields must be accurately completed according to instructions in this form.


All required reports must be submitted to the NMFS Data Collection Agent, Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission electronically or by mail at the address provided below.

To make sure that each company is consistently and accurately completing the EDR, an audit may be performed by a qualified accountant for the purpose of validating the data reported in this form. This step will ensure that the data can be relied upon to produce accurate and reliable information for the Alaska groundfish trawl fisheries.
