US Reopens Pacific Bluefin Tuna Fishery in Eastern Pacific Ocean
Summary
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) has reopened the US commercial fishery for Pacific bluefin tuna (PBF) in the eastern Pacific Ocean (EPO) until the 500 metric ton catch limit is reached, following a premature closure due to insufficient catch data. The fishery will close on December 31, 2014, if the limit is not met.
