Gentlemen
SEAS members have a port meeting at the PSVOA office room- we'll expand to a bigger room if need be. The meeting will begin at 7pm.
All SEAS members are welcome to attend. We will be serving refreshments and pizza.
Several large issues will be discussed, especially enhanced allocation and fleet consolidation. Difficult to imagine that permit cards are going to be cut up in just a couple months time.
Don't be bashful. And we could attempt to teleconference in if that is your wish.

Get the latest news here! The Southeast Alaska Seiners Association was formed in 1968 by a group of concerned Ketchikan commercial salmon purse seiners. As time wore on in the early 1980's, SEAS expanded to include all of Southeast Alaska. Today the board of directors is from multiple towns throughout Southeast Alaska. Board members hail from Sitka, Petersburg, Ketchikan, Bellingham, Seattle and Burlington-Anacortes.

SEAK Purse Seine Fleet Consolidation Proceeds
Fleet Consolidation steps up the pace
In late December Congress appropriated $235,000 to the National Marine Fisheries Service to establish a loan program for the Southeast Revitalization Association, not to exceed $23.5 million dollars.
In late January, the ADFG determined that the existing $2.88 million grant through the SSSF funds could go to a fully agreed upon program to do a reverse auction to achieve nearly a 10% reduction in permits prior to finishing up the remaining permits with the loan program through this coming fall and winter.
The Southeast Revitalization Association will be meeting soon and we will have concurrent discussions with the SEAS board at our annual SEAS Board meeting on March 1,2,3.
If you have any questions do not hesitate to call the SEAS office at (907)463-5030.
Stay tuned for fleet consolidation action imminently this spring.
warmest regards
