Editing Sand Point, Alaska (section)

==Fishing industry==
Like most Aleutian communities, commercial fishing drives the local economy. The Aleutians' largest fishing fleet is based in Sand Point.<ref name="communitydb" /> [[Trident Seafoods]] has a major [[Pacific cod]], [[pollock]], [[salmon]] and [[halibut]] [[Fish processing|processing plant]], and provides fuel and other services. Peter Pan Seafoods owns a storage and transfer facility. In 1991, New West Fisheries had a [[Factory ship|floating processor]] near the city dock for [[Pacific cod]] processing. Residents in Sand Point have to acquire commercial fishing permits to participate in the fisheries.

The city completed a major rehabilitation of the Robert E. Galovin Small Boat Harbor in the summer of 2014. The harbor can hold more than 150 boats in permanent slips, as well as transient vessels. There is also a new boat harbor on the waterfront next to the small boat harbor and City dock. This harbor was built by the Borough and Army Corps of Engineers, but does not have any floats.
