AK SB181

Amends AS 16.10.240 to require that commercially taken live crab must be landed in an Alaska port and recorded on a department fish ticket form before being shipped, transported, or sent out of state.

Removes specific species restrictions (king crab, dungeness crab, and tanner crab) from the general transportation prohibition, simplifying the statute language.

Allows all crab species to be shipped live via air freight after pre-packaging, without restriction.

Permits live dungeness crab to be transported by surface transportation only if taken from locations and times where the Department of Environmental Conservation does not require marine toxin testing by seafood processors.
