Ice Availability in Bristol Bay

The Bristol Bay Regional Seafood Development Association (BBRSDA) encourages the fleet to chill their fish and handle them with care. Chilling fish is the most important action fishermen can do to preserve quality. BBRSDA is financially assisting three different ice platforms this year . 

If fishermen cannot get ice from their processor, they can purchase ice from the following places (inquire with each supplier regarding price) :
