The eLandings System Reporting Sequence
Prior to the beginning of a vessel off-load
1. The processor needs to obtain the following licenses/permits from the vessel operator:
- Valid CFEC permit(s) for the year and fishery,
- IFQ permit(s) for IFQ/CDQ halibut, sablefish or rationalized crab (as applicable).
Check IFQ Balances
NOTE: If it is an IFQ landing, permit holders should check their IFQ permit balance to ensure they have adequate pounds available on their permit. This can only be done by going here: https://alaskafisheries.noaa.gov/webapps/efish/login
2. Once you have access to the internet, go to https://elandings.alaska.gov/
- Click on the Login link and enter your User ID and Password
- Select Groundfish Landing Report or Crab Landing Report.
3. You will be taken to the Vessel, Permit, and Location Information screen - also referred to as the Header section which corresponds to the 'header' information found on the conventional paper fish ticket.
- This information can be supplied at the beginning of the offload to initiate the landing report, or at the end of the offload.
- Enter information about the delivering vessel in the upper portion of the page. Do not modify the pre-filled values.
- Enter the appropriate CFEC information, select the management program, and enter the applicable NMFS ID and IFQ permit numbers.
- A mag-stripe reader can be used to 'swipe' in the CFEC permit data which removes the requirement to imprint the CFEC permit on the fish ticket.
- Enter statistical areas in the stat area worksheet if the harvest was proportional to all areas.
Click on the Save button.
The report has now been saved. Take note of the Landing Report number, so that if you close eLandings you can recall this landing at any time and continue with entry and submission.
4. Recall the unsubmitted landing report if you have closed eLandings, or continue to the Add/Edit Itemized Catch section.
- Data enter the itemized catch by species, delivery condition, disposition categories.
- Record if ice/slime is present (sablefish or halibut only).
- Record any overages and comments. (Note: Determination and documentation of any or all overages can be entered after the initial submission of the report.)
- Save and review information for accuracy.
5. Allocate catch to CFEC permits, if more than one CFEC permit is recorded for the landing. Review allocated catch for accuracy.
6. Submit initial report.
7. Select Add/Edit Grading and Pricing. (Note: Grading/pricing is not required for the submission of the landing report. This information can be entered and edited at any point during the process.)
