As best we can tell, these are the affected Alaska fisheries and the sums we can expect someday:
• 2023-24 Bering Sea snow crab fishery, $75.2 million
• 2022 Chignik salmon fishery, $18.5 million
• 2023 Upper Cook Inlet eastside setnet salmon fishery, $5.8 million.

Soviet style fisheries management.
If we can give 300 billion to Iran to fix what we spent 100 billion or so blowing up I imagine we can afford .03% of that to keep Alaskan fishermen and communities afloat
We've revised the figure for the Bering Sea snow crab fishery.
I hate when govt bails out businesses. It’s not natural and it’s not right. If so, why didn’t they bail out OBI? Why didn’t they bail out Peter Pan? Should they bail out Northline? If you can’t hang or if you have a bad season, it is what it is. Tax money should not be there to bail you out.
Why doesn’t Kodiak, Chignik and South Alaska peninsula apply for crab disaster money? Our crab seasons have been shut down way more often than Bering sea.
How about some fuel money like the farmers get? For the whole fleet.
Tax money should only be used for bailing out big business and billionaires, I thought we learned that already, oh and ballrooms and reflecting ponds.
