Commercial Fisheries Entry Commision CFEC Public Permit Holders by Community of Residence 1975-2016

The Commercial Fisheries Entry Commision (CFEC) is an independent, autonomous agency of the State of Alaska which regulates entry into Alaska's commercial fisheries. The CFEC is committed to promoting conservation and sustained-yield management of Alaska's unique fishery resources and boosting economic stability among fishermen and their dependents. To ensure effective management of commercial fisheries, all vessels used for commercial fishing or related activities must be licensed by the CFEC. This includes fishing vessels, tenders, packers, processors, transporter vessels, and seine skiffs. The CFEC is responsible for leasing all commercial fishing permits including permits for limited-entry fisheries. Limited-entry fisheries include all state salmon fisheries, most herring fisheries, and various other fisheries. This dataset represents the number of permits that were renewed, specifically, permit holders by community of residence. This includes all permits, limited entry and interim. This only includes Alaska Communities. So all the Non Residents that renewed their permit with an out-of-state address are not included.. The source of this permit information is various forms collected by CFEC including permit application, transfer requests, and address change forms.商业渔业准入委员会（Commercial Fisheries Entry Commision，CFEC）是阿拉斯加州的独立自治机构，负责监管进入阿拉斯加商业渔业领域的准入事宜。该委员会致力于推动阿拉斯加独特渔业资源的保护与可持续产量管理，并提升渔民及其家属的经济稳定性。为保障商业渔业的有效管理，所有用于商业捕捞及相关活动的船舶均需获得CFEC的许可，此类船舶涵盖捕捞渔船、补给船、包装加工船、运输船以及围网小艇。CFEC负责租赁所有商业捕捞许可，其中包括有限准入渔业的许可。有限准入渔业涵盖所有州属鲑鱼渔业、多数鲱鱼渔业以及其他各类渔业。本数据集统计已续期的许可数量，具体按许可持有人的居住社区进行分类，涵盖所有许可类型，包括有限准入许可与临时许可。本统计仅覆盖阿拉斯加境内社区，因此所有以州外地址提交续期申请的非本地居民均未纳入统计范围。本许可信息的数据来源为CFEC收集的各类表单，包括许可申请表、转让申请表以及地址变更表单。
