Application for
TEMPORARY MILITARY TRANSFER (TMT)
OF IFQ
A quota share (QS) holder may apply for a temporary military transfer by submitting a temporary military transfer
application to the Alaska Region, NMFS. A QS holder who has received an approved temporary military transfer
from NMFS Restricted Access Program (RAM) may transfer the individual fishing quota (IFQ) derived from his
or her own QS to an individual eligible to receive IFQ.
In the event of a military mobilization affecting a QS holder that prevents him or her from being able to
participate in the halibut or sablefish IFQ fisheries, the Regional Administrator may approve a temporary military
transfer for the IFQ derived from the QS held by a QS holder affected by the military mobilization.
General. A temporary military transfer will be approved if the QS holder demonstrates that he or she is unable to
participate in the IFQ fishery for which he or she holds QS because of a military mobilization or activation to duty
status.
Eligibility. To be eligible to receive a temporary military transfer, a QS holder must:
♦

Be a member of a branch of the U.S. National Guard or other U.S. military reserve.
