Instructions

APPLICATION FOR ANNUAL CRAB

INDIVIDUAL PROCESSING QUOTA (IPQ) PERMIT


IPQ permits are issued annually to eligible persons who hold Processing Quota (PQS). These permits authorize their holders to process a specific amount of crab, under the terms and conditions set out on the permit. Individual Processing Quota (IPQ) permits are valid for one year -- the crab year for which they are issued.


Issuance of the correct amount and type of IPQ is entirely dependent on information provided by PQS holders on their annual IPQ applications. The completed application must be received by NMFS no later than June 15. An application that is received after June 15 may not be processed and may not yield annual IPQ.
