Important Notice Regarding the Waiting Lists for Limited-Entry Lobster Zones
As directed by LD 1503, An Act to Amend Lobster and Crab Fishing License Laws, the Maine Department of Marine Resources is in the process of contacting all individuals who are currently on the lobster license waiting lists for each of the six Limited-Entry Zones (A, B, D, E, F and G) to determine if they wish to remain on the waiting list, or if they no longer want a lobster license, and wish to be removed from the waiting list.
The Department has sent out a form to each individual on each of the six waiting lists, to the most recent address they have provided to the Department. Individuals who wish to remain in their current position on the waiting list MUST return the completed form by September 2nd. If an individual does not respond within the timeframes provided in the law, the Commissioner is required to remove that person’s name from the waiting list.
If you are currently on a waiting list, please watch your mail for the form, and return it to the Department at your earliest convenience, but no later than September 2, 2016. If you have a friend or family member on a waiting list, please advise them to do the same.
DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL. THIS IS FOR INFORMATION ONLY.
