Fishery Notice

2019/2020 Red Sea Urchin by Dive is now available for payment in the Pacific 
Region through the National Online Licensing System (NOLS). 

Harvesters will use the National Online Licensing System (NOLS) to go online to 
view, pay for and print their commercial fishing licences, licence conditions, 
commercial harvest plan, and/or receipts.

For vessel designation, licence eligibility holders must submit the required 
information via the 'Submit a Request' menu selection within the National 
Online Licensing System (NOLS). Full instructions are available at: 
http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/fm-gp/sdc-cps/products-produits/request-demande-eng.htm

A reminder that all licence renewal fee payments and vessel designations must 
be made through the NOLS.  

For communal commercial licences, even though the fees are $0.00, clients are 
required to add a checkmark beside the licence(s) to renew, and 
click "Checkout" through NOLS.    

To avoid delays, please ensure the payment, and designated vessel information 
is submitted to DFO at the same time.  

Upon the Department receiving the required payment, and vessel designation 
information, the licence will be issued and notification will be sent via email 
to advise Licence Holders that a change has been made to the licence holder's 
online account.  The licence documents, conditions of licence and receipt will 
be available to be printed at that time.
