U.S. Senate Expresses Concern with Federal Marine Fisheries Management

Comments Off on U.S. Senate Expresses Concern with Federal Marine Fisheries Management

Alexandria, VA – March 8, 2010 – A dearth of marine fisheries data is on a collision course with the primary federal law that oversees federal marine fisheries management. To address this impending train wreck, today the U.S. Senate’s Commerce Subcommittee on Oceans, Atmosphere, Fisheries and Coast Guard held an oversight hearing regarding the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Marine Fisheries Service’s (NOAA Fisheries) management of the nation’s federal marine fisheries. More and more federal marine fisheries are being closed to recreational fishing, including black sea bass in the South Atlantic and gag grouper in the Gulf of Mexico, as a result of amendments made to the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act during its 2006 reauthorization. Key provisions in the reauthorization include measures to end overfishing and set annual catch limits and accountability measures for all stocks by 2011.
