Is the loan program available for purchasing crab quota share?
Yes. Starting in 2011, NMFS can make loans to purchase BSAI crab QS. To get more information, contact the Northwest Financial Services Branch. After discussing your proposal, and if it appears to meet the program’s requirements, you will be sent an application form to complete and submit along with a one-time filing/commitment fee equal to 1/2 of 1% of your proposed loan amount.
