2012 Regional Fishery Management Council Appointments Announced
|
Dear Michael
Today the Secretary of Commerce announced the appointment of 30 new and returning members to the eight regional fishery management councils. Along with their colleagues, these new council members will help shape the science-based management of U.S. fisheries and continue the strong commitment to turning the corner on ending overfishing, rebuilding fish stocks and achieving and maintaining sustainable fisheries and vibrant fishing communities. Council membership represents a diverse spectrum of interests and expertise - from commercial and recreational fishing industries, to environmental interests. This year's new and reappointed members begin their three-year term on August 11. You can view the announcement and the list of appointees on the NOAA Fisheries homepage.
