a petition that is signed by at least 25 percent of the interim-use permit and entry permit holders in the fishery that is the subject of the petition is presented to the commissioner of fish and game requesting amendment of the rate or termination date of the salmon fishery assessment;
the petition must state, as appropriate, the proposed rate or termination date of the salmon fishery assessment to be levied under AS 43.76.220; only a person who holds an interim-use permit or entry permit for the fishery at the time of signing the petition may validly sign the petition;
