TRANSITION FROM OPEN ACCESS TO QUOTA BASED FISHERY MANAGEMENT REGIMES IN ALASKA INCREASED THE SAFETY OF OPERATIONS
During the past 12 years fishery managers responsible for federal fisheries off Alaska have developed and implemented three new fishery management limited access/quota share programs in place of traditional open access management. The three limited access programs are unique but each provides for th...
