Instructions for
APPLICATION FOR EXEMPTION FROM WAG DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS
The eligible contract signatories (see qualifications at §680.4(o)(2)(i)) may request that NMFS exempt West designated
individual fishing quota (IFQ) and West designated individual processing quota (IPQ) for the Western Aleutian Islands
golden king crab (WAG) fishery from the West Region Delivery requirements.
Note: An exemption from West regional delivery requirements is only valid for the remainder of the crab fishing
year during which the application was submitted to and approved by NMFS.
Eligible Contract Signatories are:
♦

Quota Share (QS) holders: Any person or company that holds in excess of 20 percent of the West designated

WAG QS at the time the contract was signed, or their authorized representative.

♦

Processor Quota Share (PQS) holders: Any person or company that holds in excess of 20 percent of the West
designated WAG PQS at the time the contract was signed, or their authorized representative.

♦

Municipalities: designated officials from both the City of Adak and the City of Atka or an authorized
representative

Each Eligible Contract Signatory must complete, sign, and date an Affidavit affirming that a master contract was signed to
authorize the request for exemption from the West region delivery requirements for West designated IFQ and West
designated IPQ for the WAG fishery at § 680.7(a)(2) and (a)(4). By signing the affidavit, the signatory affirms that all
information is true, correct, and complete to the best of his or her knowledge and belief.
A completed application must be received and approved by NMFS before any person may use WAG IFQ or IPQ with a
West regional designation outside of the West region during a crab fishing year.
The application is available on the NMFS Alaska region website (https://www.fisheries.noaa.gov/region/alaska) or
from NMFS at the address below. All information fields on the application must be accurately completed.
If NMFS approves this application, the effective date of the exemption is the date the application is approved by NMFS.
Any delivery of WAG IFQ or IPQ with a West regional designation outside of the West region prior to the effective date
of the exemption is prohibited under 680.7(a)(2) and (a)(4).
The completed application may be submitted to NMFS using any one of the following methods:
♦ Mail:
