With its headquarters in Seattle, Washington, Icicle Seafoods, Inc. is one of the largest seafood processing companies in Alaska with a focus on processing salmon, pollock, crab, halibut, cod, sablefish, and herring in most major fisheries throughout Alaska. It operates both plants on-shore and floating processing barges that travel to locations in various parts of Alaska to process fish. Fish processors working on these barges work 16-hour shifts processing fish. Because these processing barges qualify as vessels under the Jones Act, employees and fish processors working on floating barges are entitled to benefits under general maritime law and the Jones Act. These processing barges include:

• ARCTIC STAR
• BERING STAR
• DISCOVERY STAR.
• M/V NORTHERN VICTOR

Along with its processing barges, Icicle Seafoods operates a number of support vessels, including tenders, crabbers, trawlers, and other support vessels.
