Section 635-005-0415 - Eligibility Requirements for a Permit

(1) Vessels or vessel owners must meet eligibility requirements for an Ocean Dungeness Crab Permit pursuant to ORS 508.931.

(2) An individual licensed under ORS 508.235 or a commercial licensed vessel under ORS 509.260, except as otherwise stated in section 3 of this rule, is eligible to obtain an Ocean Dungeness Crab Permit required by OAR 635-005-0405 by renewal of the previous year's permit as specified in OAR 635-005-0430. For the purposes of eligibility for an Ocean Dungeness Crab Permit, a vessel which received a license waiver issued pursuant to ORS 508.808 shall be considered as having possessed a boat license for that year.

(3) ORS 508.931 and ORS 508.941 require that the vessel be previously licensed in accordance with ORS 508.260 for the purposes of initial eligibility for an Ocean Dungeness Crab Permit. "Initial eligibility for vessels to participate" for the purposes of application for an Ocean Dungeness Crab Permit pursuant to ORS 508.931, means eligibility of a vessel on which to make permit application is confined to vessels which have never obtained an initial permit. A Single Delivery License shall not be substituted for a boat license for this purpose.

(4) In making determinations regarding issuance or renewal of any limited entry permit, the Department and the Commercial Fishery Permit Board may consider as evidence of permit qualifications or requirements Department records and such receipts, accounts, contracts and other business records of private parties as the Department or the Board considers reliable evidence of the qualifications or requirements in question.
