		1. "Initially Issued" means QS that is initially issued to it's first holder. Initial issuance was accomplished primarily at the beginning of the IFQ program but may occur at any time as a result of adjudicated appeals. 2. Designation of "Alaskan" or "Non-Alaskan" is premised on holders' self-reported business mailing address; NMFS/RAM makes no effort to verify residency. 3. Changes over time between "Alaskan" and "Non-Alaskan" QS holdings are the result both of QS transfers and of QS holder's address changes. 4. Total QS units for a species/area may differ from published QS pool sizes as a result of QS units not assigned to any person (for ex., units in reserve or revoked mid-year). 5. The number of QS holders is not additive across areas or species. "Unique Total" represents the unique number of QS holders for each species. 6. Additional information on changes in QS holdings and consolidation in the halibut and sablefish fisheries can be found on our web site at: www.fakr.noaa.gov. 7. Excludes persons with unknown addresses.
