Description:The Council has requested that NMFS promulgate an emergency rule to relieve the existing regional delivery and processing requirement in the Western Aleutian Islands golden king crab fishery. An emergency exists because no processing facility is currently open in the West region, yet federal regulations require that a portion of crab be processed in the West region. Relieving this restriction would enable fishermen to deliver harvests made with West designated individual fishing quota outside the West region. A substantial portion of the fishery will likely remain unharvested, to the economic detriment of fishery participants and consumers, unless the West region delivery requirement is relieved. This document contains a Regulatory Impact Review to analyze the economic impacts of temporarily relieving the existing West region delivery requirement.
