What AB 1056 does, verified December 13, 2025

The bill aims to amend the existing regulations regarding commercial fishing, specifically gill nets and trammel nets. Currently, permits can be transferred to qualified individuals, including those with disabilities or upon death. However, this bill eliminates these provisions, allowing permits to be transferred only to family members, as specified by regulations adopted by the commission. The transferred permit cannot be further transferred. The bill takes effect on January 1, 2027.
