Section 106.82 - Limitations(a)Extent of program activities. The AMIP will organize a voluntary market reporting system to collect price information for aquaculture and seafood products sold within our regional market on prices received by farmers/suppliers at the wholesale level. The AMIP is a voluntary program. The system will be based on obtaining information from the largest fish markets in the market area along with information provided by a sampling of dealers and aquaculture propagators. The Department will contact each identified participant and request information on average prices paid for aquaculture and seafood products twice per month. The information received will be averaged and summarized according to the market area from which it was received. A summary of the average mean price, volume purchased and the range of prices for each aquaculture product sold will be published bimonthly following the collection of data (Example: The average mean price received for rainbow trout at the Fulton Fish Market the week of March 26-30, 2001, was $2.50 in a whole, 8-12 ounce form, price range $1.35-1.60, volume 1,500 pounds.). Distribution will be made through the Department's website and through fax or mail to any individual upon request.(b)Use of funds. Funds allocated for the AMIP shall be used solely for the purposes in this subchapter.(c)Funds available basis. Program activities will not be undertaken unless funds are available.
