Proposed state fisheries budget holds steady for FY21 May 5th 10:01 pm |
The budget for Alaska s commercial fisheries division is facing no cuts for the upcoming fiscal year, assuming the current numbers make it through the Legislature. The governor s proposed budget is at about $72.8 million, which is a slight increase from the FY21 approved budget. And most of that increase is due to our personnel services, cost of living increases and things like that that are funded by the administration generally. And also from some additional federal funds for training and things like that. So we re looking pretty good compared to past years, said Sam Rabung, director of the commercial fisheries division, the largest within the Alaska Deptartment of Fish and Game, which employs just over 640 full-time, part-time and seasonal workers.
