Harvest and Landing
Reports
NOTE: NOAA Fisheries Alaska Region recently revised the following reports for confidentiality reasons. Confidential data are masked with asterisks. We are no longer producing the report that showed the area of harvest vs. port of landing, and percent of total allowable catch (TAC) was removed from the weekly and monthly reports. You may submit requests for specific data in writing to the RAM Program at RAM.alaska@noaa.gov. However, confidentiality is the primary controlling factor in what we may release.

A new series of ten Alaska Department of Fish and Game statistical area charts became effective on January 1, 2001. In addition to their use on State groundfish and shellfish fish tickets (other than shellfish in SE Alaska), these statistical areas are used in required landing reports submitted to NMFS for IFQ halibut and sablefish, and for CDQ halibut. For more information on these charts, call the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Commercial Fisheries at (907) 465-6147.
