Description:The Community Development Quota (CDQ) Program was established in 1992 as a fisheries and economic development program for Western Alaska communities. The Program was conceived in the mid-1980s in response to the juxtaposition of the highly developed industrial pollock fishery to highly undeveloped and economically impoverished Western Alaska communities. “It's unconscionable to leave the people that have been there for 8000 years on the beach while someone else gets the fish,” said Clem Tillion, who advocated for the creation of the program at the time as a fisheries liaison for the Governor of Alaska (Clem Tillion, pers. comm., July 31, 2015).
