INSTRUCTIONS FOR

AMENDMENT 80 EX-VESSEL VOLUME AND VALUE REPORT

Submit this form On-line Only

(shown here for information only)

GENERAL INFORMATION

Wholesale Volume and Value reports are used for directed fisheries where fish are harvested exclusively, or almost exclusively, by catcher/processors and where insufficient ex-vessel prices data is available. These species include all groundfish species (except Pacific cod, pollock, and fixed-gear sablefish) allocated to the Amendment 80 and CDQ Program.

NMFS relies on the information provided in the Wholesale Volume and Value report to estimate the ex-vessel value of those species. The first arm’s length transaction that occurs under these conditions is the first wholesale price or first market price. The Magnuson-Stevens Act mandates that cost recovery fees be based on the ex-vessel value of fish. Give that there is no reliable ex-vessel price generated for some species, that price must be estimated. This report must be submitted electronically to NMFS no later than November 1 of the year in which the landings were made.

The Amendment 80 Wholesale Volume and Value Report is available on the Alaska Region website at http://www.alaskafisheries.noaa.gov/ram.
