5 AAC 39.123 - Late registration
(a) To qualify for an extension of a
registration or permit deadline set out in 5 AAC 01 - 5 AAC 39, a person must
show that the person had demonstrated an intent to harvest fish before the
deadline. An "intent to harvest fish" may be demonstrated by
(1) renewing or applying for, before the
deadline, a CFEC permit which is effective in the fishery and area for which
extension is being requested;
(2)
participation during the previous season in the fishery in the requested area,
unless entry into the fishery is limited and the person did not own a permit
for that season;
(3) purchasing or
showing intent to purchase a vessel, permit, or fishing gear for the fishery
before the deadline;
(4) showing
intent to start, starting, or completion of vessel or gear repair or
maintenance for the fishery before the deadline; or
(5) any other written documentation, such as
loan applications, agreements with fish buyers, license applications, or other
writings, which indicate the necessary intent to participate in the fishery
before the deadline.
(b)
In addition to (a) of this section, a person must demonstrate that failure to
apply before the deadline was a result of excusable neglect. "Excusable
neglect" may be demonstrated by
(1) loss of
registration or permit form in the mail, or other documentation which may
demonstrate excusable carelessness or inattention on the part of authorized
agents or other third parties;
(2)
receipt of incorrect information from a department official, which is
substantiated by the appropriate official;
(3) illness or injury of the individual or a
member of his family that was serious enough to prevent him from meeting the
deadline;
(4) required government
or military service; or
(5) written
documentation that will substantiate other unavoidable circumstances that
prevented meeting the deadline.
