Pricing and Value Data

• Commercial Operator's Annual Report (COAR) Commercial Operator's Annual Report (COAR) +

  The Commercial Operator's Annual Report (COAR) is an operator's accurate and complete summary of purchasing and processing activity for raw fishery resources purchased or processed in Alaska. A first purchaser, first processor, catcher-exporter, or catcher-processor that has been assigned a processor code must submit a COAR. The COAR is due on April 1 for activity in the previous calendar year and is typically available for download by the beginning of June.
