Vessels of the United States Fishing in Colombian Treaty Waters

Streszczenie

NMFS issues this final rule to amend the regulations that govern fishing by vessels of the United States in certain waters of the Caribbean Sea covered by a treaty between the United States and the Government of Colombia (GOC). This rule requires that such vessels in treaty waters display their official numbers and that fish and lobster traps used in treaty waters have degradable panels. The intended effect of this rule is to implement conservation and management measures agreed to in consultations between the United States and the GOC.
