ANNUAL CHINOOK EDR COMPENSATED TRANSFER REPORT
The Chinook Salmon Economic Data Report (EDR) Program provides additional data to assess the
effectiveness of the Chinook salmon bycatch management measures implemented under Amendment 91
to the Fishery Management Plan for Groundfish of the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Management Area.
The information collected is a combination of quantitative and qualitative data to conduct descriptive and
quantitative analysis and comparisons of the annual and seasonal changes in the pollock fleet under
Amendment 91.
An owner or leaseholder of an American Fisheries Act (AFA) permitted vessel and the representative of
any entity that received an allocation of Chinook Prohibited Species Catch (PSC) from NMFS must
complete and submit the Certification Page (Part 1) of a PSC Compensated Transfer Report (CTR) each
year, for the previous calendar year.
Any person who paid or received money for a transfer of Chinook salmon PSC allocation after January 20
must complete and submit both the Certification Page and Chinook Salmon PSC Allocation Transfer
Information (Parts 1 and 2) for the previous calendar year.
This CTR is intended to provide information to fishery managers to evaluate the effectiveness of Chinook
salmon bycatch management measures. The CTR collects information on transfers of Chinook salmon
PSC allocation to or from another person during each calendar year for which the transferor or transferee
paid or received monetary compensation. Compensated transfers are those transfers that include
monetary compensation for a part of or the whole value of the transferred Chinook PSC allocation.
Please provide all requested information.
