- The CFEC Permit holder must also be the same person that holds the specific NMFS ID and IFQ permit for the landing.
- If you enter a NMFS ID/IFQ Permit/Species with a blank Area/Fishery on one line, you cannot enter the same NMFS ID/IFQ Permit/Species with Area/Fishery filled in on another line without getting an error.
- If you want to use the max-out pounds feature, the CFEC permit holder must have two (or more) IFQ permits in the same IPHC area.
- Area/Fishery only has to be filled out when using the max-out feature.
- Example 2 below, displays the wrong way to use the max-out feature
- If you have one CFEC permit holder that has two IFQ permits and they want to split the halibut catch 50/50 between the permits, you would just enter the total pounds caught in the itemized catch section.
- Once you submit the Initial Report you will then be able to Generate IFQ reports which will evenly split the IFQ pounds caught between the two permits.
- If you want a specific amount of pounds to go on one permit then you will need to use the max-out pounds feature.

CFEC Permits/Percentage and Relationship to IFQ Permits
The percent field on the CFEC Permit Worksheet can be used to tell the system how you want the itemized catch split between permits.
- If you do not enter any percent values, the system will automatically split the catch up evenly between the CFEC permit holders.
- Keep in mind that the Percent feature is influenced by the use of max out pounds field.
- For instance, if all the IFQ permits connected to a CFEC permit have max-out pound requests, then the max-out pound allocation takes precedence (This is how it always worked).
- The introduction of Area/Fishery also affects how percent is honored.
- The system will never honor the requested percent if doing so violates the max out pounds requested or violates Area/Fishery specifications.
- The change to split itemized catch lines on whole pound boundaries, to avoid lines with fractional pounds, also means that percents are not honored exactly, only as close as possible.
