INSTRUCTIONS


IMPORTANT! This application must be submitted by legally recognized corporations, partnerships, and other business entities who own or hold a sablefish-endorsed Pacific Coast Groundfish Limited Entry Permit. This form must be submitted with your annual permit renewal (due by November 30) and with any transfer request when the resulting sablefish endorsed permit will list a business entity as either the permit owner or vessel owner. A sablefish endorsed limited entry permit that lists a business entity will not be renewed until such time that NMFS receives an ownership interest form from each business entity given on the permit and a completed renewal form and payment. Please type or print legibly in ink. Attach additional sheets as necessary. Sign in ink, keep a copy for your records, and mail the completed form to the address listed above.


The purpose of this form is to provide NMFS with information to determine if the number of sablefish endorsed permits owned or held by an individual exceed the limit (3 permits unless otherwise grandfathered) and to determine if any change in ownership has occurred to corporations and partnerships since the control date. Note: A “partnership” is defined as two or more individuals, partnerships, or corporations, or combinations thereof, who have ownership interest in a permit, including married couples and legally recognized partnerships, such as limited partnerships (LP), general partnerships (GP), and limited liability partnerships (LLP).

SECTION B - IDENTIFICATIONS OF SHAREHOLDERS AND PARTNERS: List each individual shareholder or partner name (Last, First, Middle Initial) and their business address. The date of birth is required for each individual. If the shareholder/partner is a corporation/partnership, list the individual names of all shareholders/partners of that entity. Please respond to the question at the end of the Section. Note the Privacy Act Statement at the end of the application. NMFS may request further documentation as proof of corporate or partnership ownership.
