a quota management system that shall consist of determining on a scientific basis
by species and number or pounds the maximum allowable annual taking of those fishery
resources or part thereof in order to prevent over exploitation of any species and
assure the conservation and wise use of all species, and the determination on an equitable
basis of the distribution of that maximum allowable annual taking between and within
the sport and commercial fisheries. The chief and the council, in determining and establishing the apportionment of the
maximum allowable annual taking of a species between the sport and commercial fisheries,
