Alaska
This Regulatory Impact Analysis analyzes proposed management measures that would apply exclusively to participants in the Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands management area (BSAI) crab Rationalization Program, the BS American Fisheries Act (AFA) pollock Program, and the BSAI Amendment 80 Program. These three Limited Access Privilege Programs (LAPPs) are the only LAPPs in the North Pacific that require participants to submit economic data reports (EDRs) to National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). The measures under consideration would remove the requirements to submit EDRs. The purpose of this action is to eliminate the administrative costs and reporting burden associated with these data collections.
