Lt. j.g. Nicholas Herndon, of Annandale, Va., a student at the Coast Guard’s North Pacific Regional Fisheries Training Center, questions his instructor, Chief Petty Officer Erick Noel, who is posing as the master of a fishing vessel, to verify his compliance with Alaska fisheries laws, during a simulated fisheries boarding, Sept. 11, 2014. Prior to conducting a patrol to enforce fisheries laws in the Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska, Coast Guard boarding teams spend a week training at NPRFTC, where the course includes fishery and gear regulations, fish species identification, types of Alaska fishing vessels, forms and documentation, and practical training on every stage of a fisheries law enforcement boarding. Coast Guard law enforcement officers help ensure the sustainability of Alaska’s $2 billion dollar fishing industry.
