... an experimental fishery was operated to enable samples to be collected for genetic stock identification to inform management in terms of operating a commercial fishery while safeguarding the spawning requirements of the salmon populations that were below conservation limit requirements. Managers using a combination of genetic and biological data derived from this study found that there were indeed distinct and predominantly non-overlapping differences in run time among the various local populations...

Subject field(s)
  • Titles of Laws and Regulations

OBS

In 1964, Congress passed the Bartlett Act(Pub. L. No 88-308, 78 Stat. 194) which excluded foreign vessels from fishing within the United States’ territorial sea, defined as all ocean waters within three miles from the coast. Two years later, Congress passed the Contiguous Fisheries Zone Act(Pub. L. No. 89-658, 80 Stat. 908), which created a nine-mile contiguous zone extending out from the three-mile limit, from which foreign fishing vessels would be excluded. These acts and treaties failed to protect U. S. fisheries as they were intended to. The Bartlett Act provided no authority for federal management measures, limiting the federal government's role to data collection and law enforcement against foreign fishers. Other nations also found their fisheries to be suffering, as most treaties provided no means of enforcement against nations who had not chosen to enter into an agreement. As a result, several countries moved to extend the area of their marine jurisdiction. By 1975, of the parties involved in ongoing law-of-the-sea negotiations, sixty nations including the United States, favored a twelve-mile territorial sea and a two-hundred-mile resource conservation zone.

On sait par ailleurs que la Convention de 1982, en son article 62(2), ne règle que de façon imparfaite la question de la gestion des stocks halieutiques chevauchant la zone économique exclusive d'un État et la haute mer proprement dite. Le Canada est en particulier très affecté par la surpêche étrangère au-delà de sa zone de 200 milles. Il a ainsi adopté une Loi modifiant la Loi sur la protection des pêcheries côtières et soumis à arrestation le 26 juillet deux navires américains qui se livraient à la pêche aux pétoncles au-delà de ses 200 milles.

In many parts of the United States, the limited availability of drinking water has made water conservation practices mandatory. With water consumption at an all-time high, the costs of water and sewer services continue to climb. The good news, however, is that widespread reduction in water consumption could limit the need for new or expanded water and sewage treatment plants.
