Update: 2021 PEI Halibut Reallocation - October 6th

DFO has advised that the PEI halibut reallocation fishery is anticipated to open on Monday, October 11^th, 2021. The fishery will close when the quota nears 100% or on Friday, October 15^th whichever comes first. Approx. 174 eligible fishers are approved to participate. The individual catch limits will be the same as the main fishery at 307kg round weight. The draw was completed on Monday and DFO determined eligibility of those on the draw list. PEIFA has made efforts today to contact the eligible fishers on the list to determine their interest in the reallocation. If eligible fishers declined, we moved to the next on the list. At this point between the number of ineligible and those not interested, we are at #275 on the draw list. The unofficial draw list results (which includes all registered so both eligible and ineligible fishers) is posted below by clicking the link. Thank you to all those who have contacted the PEIFA to assist us with this process.
