About this file

This document is the Appendix A Required Pilot RALF Bidder Proposal Sheet for the MA Commercial Fisheries Revolving Groundfish ACE Leasing Fund contract opportunity. The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries (MA DMF) is soliciting bids for the administration of a pilot Groundfish Revolving ACE Leasing Fund for eligible groundfishermen enrolled in a Gloucester-based groundfish sector for the 2016 fishing year. The proposal sheet requests information from the bidding sector such as total membership, primary homeports, and details on how the sector will manage the leasing of additional quota through the program, including distribution, notifications, payment terms, and measures to ensure proper use and repayment.

The proposal sheet does not provide specifics on pricing, set-asides, or funding requirements. However, it does indicate that the sector will be responsible for administering the program and ensuring compliance among its members who receive additional quota allocations through the leasing fund.
