Hew Law Affecting Vessel And Gear
License Transfers Is Explained
By Bob Simon
The Committee Substitute for
Senate Bill 60 became law during
the last session of the legislature,
and it is quite evident from the
telephone calls received at the
Commercial Fisheries Manage
ment office of the Department of
Fish and Game that it has caused
some confusion among the fisher
men.
The law is not a substitute for
those sections of the commercial
fishing regulations that provide
for area registration and the April
15 deadline for the licensing and
registration of salmon fishing ves
sels and gear. It provides for the
transfer of vessel and gear licenses
from one individual to another and
the conditions under which such
transfers are legal. The conditions
referred to are the sickness, injury,
dearth, unavailability or other in
capacitation of the licensee that
prevents or may prevent a licensed
commercial fishing vessel from be
ing used for commercial fishing. ■
A written statement on forms |
furnished by the Department of
Fish and Game along with the
pertinent licensing information
at the time the transfer is made
PRIOR to the time the transferee
commences fishing and within 10
days of a radio or telephone
communication. The law pro
vides that the statements will be
referred to the Department of
Law.
At the present time, the transfei
orms and supplemental licenses
ire being printed, but should bt
it the local Department of Fish
ind Game office in a short time.
In the meantime, in order to
avoid misunderstanding or pos
sible grief, it is requested that
fishermen or vessel owners con
sult with the Commercial Fish
eries Management office of the
Department of Fish and Game
should any questions arise.
