Am I required to mark my lobster receiver?

buoy, receiver

Yes, any receiver impounding lobster must be individually buoyed and marked. Lobster receiver buoys must be clearly and distinctly marked with the lobster operator permit holder’s commercial fishing license identification number. The numbers must be at least 1.5 inches in height and drawn with a line at least 0.25 inch thick in a color that contrast with the buoy.
