The requirements of this section do not apply to a registered Tanner crab vessel that does not have a saltwater circulation system in its holds or live tanks. In the Bering Sea District only, the requirements of this section do not apply to catcher/processor vessels, if the commercial Chionoecetes bairdi Tanner crab season remains open through the opening of the commercial Chionoecetes opilio Tanner crab season.
