Next, whole-number amounts from fish ticket summaries are compared with the corresponding amounts on the IFQ reports (75 compared with 37+37, and 25 compared with 12+12, in both sold and deadloss dispositions), and one pound adjustments are applied to IFQ reports until they match Fish Ticket totals. Adjustments are applied to IFQ report items with maxout pounds first; within those with maxout pounds the smallest first; within those by IFQ Permit: next IFQ permit items with area/fishery; within those by area/fishery; within those by IFQ permit: then IFQ permit items with neither max out pounds or area/fishery by IFQ permit. In this case no IFQ report items have maxout or area/fishery, so the smallest (990051) IFQ permit gets the adjustment pounds in every case.

Next, whole number amounts from fish ticket summaries are compared with the corresponding amounts on the IFQ reports (76 compared with 38+38, and 25 compared with 12+12, and this applies to both sold and deadloss dispositions), and one pound adjustments are applied to IFQ reports until they match Fish Ticket totals. Adjustments are applied to IFQ report items with maxout pounds first; within those with maxout pounds the smallest first; within those by IFQ Permit: next IFQ permit items with area/fishery; within those by area/fishery; within those by IFQ permit: then IFQ permit items with neither max out pounds or area/fishery by IFQ permit. In this case no IFQ report items have maxout or area/fishery, so the item with the smallest (990051) IFQ permit gets the one pound adjustment on both sold and deadloss items.
Finally, IFQ reports are "leveled", and in this case, since one report got two positive rounding-related adjustments (adjustments for stat area 575732 on both catch sold and deadloss), while the other report got none... one adjustment of 1 pound from the stat area 575731 (the stat area with the largest percent) sold item on 990051's report to the stat area 575731 sold item on 990052's report "levels" the reports while retaining the match between fish ticket pounds and IFQ pounds. The end result of the leveling is that 990051's report loses one pound from a stat area 575731 catch sold item, while 990052's report acquires one pound on its stat area 575731 sold item.
