Description

Rural residents depend on access to fisheries in communities with limited alternatives for employment or income. Limited access programs, implemented in alaska's fisheries in the late 70S through 1990S, secured management improvement but also increased the cost of entry. The cost barrier to entry has, in turn contributed to the decline in local permit ownership and a "graying of the fleet" with fewer young people from alaska's rural communities entering the fisheries. The AK on-board commercial fisherman training project (AK on-board) will combine expertise and tried-and-true training methods from programs led by alaska sea grant, the alaska longline fishermen's association, the alaska marine conservation council, and the alaska marine safety education association, to provide regional training
