-
Monitoring fisheries regulatory, management, and marketing issues that may impact Southwest Alaska fisheries and influence policies, management, and marketing initiatives to create a more stable fisheries economy in the region.
-
Engaging the environmental community in an ongoing dialogue to anticipate, avoid, and alleviate legal challenges that adversely impact the fisheries economy of Southwest Alaska.
