As AGDB transitions out of the business, we are assisting with the transition for the CGOA Rockfish Program (RP) Shoreside Intercooperative/Cooperatives and the GOA Trawl Electronic Monitoring (TEM) Incentive Plan Agreement (IPA).
The contact for both RFPs is Chelsae Radell, Assistant Director, TEM IPA Manager, and Intercooperative/Cooperative Manager. Please reach out via contact information provided in the RFPs.
Intercooperative/Cooperative Manager RFP –
The CGOA RP Shoreside Intercooperative is seeking proposals from qualified individuals or organizations to provide management services for both the Intercooperative and each of the four member cooperatives: North Pacific Rockfish Cooperative, OBSI Rockfish Cooperative, Silver Bay Seafoods Rockfish Cooperative, and Star of Kodiak Rockfish Cooperative. The Manager will be responsible for ensuring regulatory compliance, supporting cooperative operations, coordinating quota management, and fostering collaboration among participating entities. While an organization may provide these services, a single individual must be designated as the Cooperative Manager and point of contact.
TEM IPA Manager RFP –
The Gulf of Alaska Trawl Electronic Monitoring Association (GOA TEM) is seeking proposals from qualified individuals or organizations to manage the TEM Incentive Plan Agreement (IPA) for the GOA Pollock Fishery. This RFP aims to identify a suitable manager who will be responsible for overseeing the IPA’s annual submission and approval process by National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), implementation of the IPA, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements, supporting vessel operators, and fostering cooperation between stakeholders to meet the goals of the electronic monitoring program. While an organization may take on this work, a single individual must be listed as the IPA Representative.
