ANNUAL CATCHER/PROCESSOR CRAB EDR
Introduction
This report collects information on Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area (BSAI) crab
operations, including Western Alaska Community Development Quota Program (CDQ) crab
fisheries. The fisheries are referred to as Crab Rationalization fisheries (CR fisheries). Pursuant to
the legislation, the data and identifiers will also be used for program enforcement and determination
of qualification for quota shares. Consequently, identifiers and data will 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.
You have received this form because our records show that you are either the owner of a
catcher/processor that participated in the BSAI crab fisheries in the past or were leased a
catcher/processor that participated in the BSAI crab fisheries in the past. You are required to
submit the Certification Pages (pages 3 and 4) and any additional information requested in
the Economic Data Report (EDR). Failure to submit an EDR form when required will result in
delay in and/or denial of any and all permit applications.
To make sure that each company is consistently and accurately completing the EDR, random
audits will be performed by a qualified accountant on some of the EDRs for a subset of the crab
fishery participants. This step will ensure that the data can be relied upon to produce accurate and
reliable information for the Alaska crab fisheries.
Auditors will verify records by comparing specific elements of the report with your accounting
records. To make this activity as efficient and non-intrusive as possible, we suggest that you:
1. Keep a copy of the completed EDR or certification pages you submit to the Data
Collection Agent (DCA). Copy and attach extra sheets as needed.
2. Keep a file that has all of the supporting information used in the preparation of the EDR.
3. Make sure that the EDR agrees to the company’s highest level of financial information.
For this purpose, the highest level of financial information is defined in order as:
a.
b.
c.
d.

Audited financial statements
Reviewed financial statements
Compiled financial statements
Tax returns.

Record only whole numbers. Round up dollar figures to the next highest dollar.

NOTE:
Any owner or leaseholder of a catcher/processor used to process crab in a Crab
Rationalization (CR) fishery during the previous calendar year must submit a
completed Annual Catcher/Processor Crab Economic Data Report (EDR) following the
instructions in this form. The completed EDR and/or EDR certification pages must be
submitted to the Data Collection Agent (DCA) for each calendar year on or before July
31 of the following year, electronically or at the address provided on the form. If the
owner or leaseholder of this vessel harvested but did not process any crab, a
Catcher Vessel EDR may be submitted instead of this form. A Catcher Vessel
EDR form may be requested from Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission at the
address or phone number listed below.
Definition of “Leaseholder”: For the purpose of defining the persons responsible for
submitting the EDR, a Leaseholder is a person, other than the owner of the
catcher/processor for which the EDR is required, who: was identified as the
leaseholder, in a written lease, of the catcher/processor, OR paid expenses of the
catcher/processor, OR claimed expenses for the catcher/processor as a business
expense on schedule C of his/her Federal Income Tax Return, or on a State Income
Tax Return.
