Fishery Notice

Groundfish Trawl licence holders and harvesters are advised that DFO has 
allocated the remaining 107,167 tonnes of Offshore Pacific hake quota for the 
2019/20 fishing season as follows;

Shoreside:      81,031 tonnes
Joint Venture:  26,136 tonnes

Industry is reminded that DFO initially allocated 26,998 tonnes of Offshore 
Pacific Hake for Shoreside delivery to eligible groundfish trawl licenses on 
February 21, 2019.  A further 18,900 tonnes was allocated on March 15 as 
carryover from the 2018/19 season (15,036 t Shoreside quota and 3,864 t Joint 
Venture quota)  

The allocation of the 2019 Offshore Pacific Hake TAC of 156,067 tonnes between 
Shoreside and Joint Venture quota for the 2019/20 season is;  
Shoreside:     126,067 tonnes
Joint Venture:  30,000 tonnes

As in the past, the Groundfish Development Quota portion (10%) of the Shoreside 
quota has yet to be allocated to licences but will be upon completion of the 
Groundfish Development Authority process later this year.

Fees for these additional quotas have been calculated for each eligible 
groundfish trawl licence based on the permanent individual vessel quota 
percentage (%) of Offshore and Offshore JV hake held on a licence as of June 
25th, 2019. Payment of fees can now be made through the National Online 
Licensing System (NOLS).

Once fees have been paid, the Groundfish Management Unit (GMU) will assign and 
issue a licence amendment reflecting the revised Offshore and Offshore JV Hake 
IVQ for that licensed vessel.
