(2) Crewmember participation points. A maximum of 15 points will be awarded to an applicant for crewmember participation. An applicant will not receive both skipper participation points and crewmember participation points for the same season.

(A) Crewmember participation points for a given season may be claimed under (B) of this paragraph, subject to the requirements

(i) the applicant must be entitled to skipper participation points for 1982, 1983, or 1984; and

(ii) the applicant must have participated on a vessel from which at least 2,000 pounds of sablefish were commercially harvested in the fishery in that season.

(B) An applicant may claim three points for crewmember participation for each season from 1975 through 1984.

(b) Economic Dependence.

(1) Relative income dependence points and vessel investment points may be claimed under (2) and (3) of this subsection, respectively, subject to the requirement that the sum of the applicant's annual catch values for the years 1982 - 1984 is at least $2,000.

(2) Relative income dependence points.

(A) An applicant's income dependence percentage will be calculated by dividing the sum of the applicant's annual catch values for the years 1982 - 1984 by the combined sums of the applicant's annual catch values for the years 1982 - 1984 and the applicant's occupational income for the years 1982 - 1984, and then multiplying the quotient by 100.

(B) An applicant may claim relative income dependence points as shown in the following schedule:

    

    

Income Dependence Percentage Points at least 20% 15 at least 10% but less than 20% 10
