permit at some point during fishing year 1999. For the seven vessels that
no longer retained their multispecies permit as their last valid permit
during fishing year 1999: five canceled due to "transfer" or "vessel owner
changed", one due to "permitted fisheries changed," and one due to "permit
sanction." |
