SpecialtiesSince 1988 Saltwater Inc. has been an industry leader in the design and implementation of fishery and marine mammal observer programs. Annually we employ over 250 marine observers who collect fisheries data for a variety of public, private, and foundation clients. This observer data is used to manage U.S. fisheries and marine mammal populations in a sustainable way. We are currently recruiting biologists to work as fishery observers in the Alaska groundfish, Alaska crab, Alaska scallop, Alaska Marine Mammal, Hawaii, West Coast Groundfish, and Northeast marine fisheries programs.

The Coastal Villages Region Fund (CVRF) is dedicated to creating opportunities for individuals in its 20 member communities in western Alaska, focusing on financial security through sustainable fishing practices and community development. As the largest seafood owner-operator headquartered in Alaska, CVRF manages a variety of vessels that harvest pollock, crab, and cod, ensuring the protection of local fisheries while supporting the livelihoods of over 9,300 residents across 30,000 square miles of rugged coastline. CVRF emphasizes balancing growth and sustainability, making strategic investments and implementing necessary infrastructure to foster community development. By promoting self-determination and resource management, the organization aims to ensure lasting prosperity for Alaskan residents within the Coastal Villages region. Generated from the website
