Abstract: The annual reports are intended to be a resource for the North Pacific Fisheries Management Council (Council) to track the effectiveness of the cooperatives and their ability to meet the Council’s goals. Additionally, they are a tool for the cooperatives to provide feedback on the programs. o The title is changed from "Alaska Council Crab Cooperative Report" to read "ALASKA COUNCIL COOPERATIVE ANNUAL REPORTS." o All annual reports requested by the Council are combined into this collection. Combining portions of the five collections into one collection is intended to make updates for requests easier, as each report is required annually; usually the Council adds several suggested updates each year.
