ANNUAL CRAB CATCHER VESSEL 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 vessel that participated in the BSAI crab fisheries in the past or were leased a catcher vessel 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 may result in delay or denial of any and all federal fishery permit applications.

The EDR is intended to collect the most accurate information available without imposing undue burden on submitters. To make sure that each company is consistently and accurately completing the EDR, all reported values will be reviewed by PSMFC or NMFS authorized personnel for the purpose of validating the data reported in this form. This step will ensure that the data can be relied upon to produce accurate and reliable information for the Alaska crab fisheries.

If potential reporting errors are detected, you will be contacted by PSMFC and asked to verify one or more specific data elements of the report with your accounting records, and to provide corrected data values where appropriate. To make this activity as efficient and non-intrusive as possible, we suggest that you:

1. Keep a copy of the certification and all completed EDR pages you submit. If submitting the EDR using the online EDR Portal, download and save a copy of the final report page for your own records.

2. Keep a file that has all of the supporting information used in the preparation of the EDR.

3. Where possible, information reported should correspond to company’s highest level of financial information and operational recordkeeping. Where necessary, estimates should be derived from the best available financial and operational records, and the method of estimation (such as pro rata apportionment) documented in notes. For this purpose, the preferred sources of best available information are defined as:

1. Compiled (finalized, and if available, audited) financial statements and tax returns;

2. Vessel (captain or plant manager) daily logbooks, Daily Cumulative Production Logbook reports, and vessel manager records;

c. Qualified judgement of the most knowledgeable manager or engineer, explained in writing.

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