Determination by the Department of State Regarding Shrimp Imports From the Queensland East Coast Trawl Fishery, the Torres Strait Prawn Fishery, and the Exmouth Gulf Prawn Managed Fishery

Özet

The Department of State has determined that shrimp harvested in Australia's Queensland East Coast Trawl Fishery, the Torres Strait Prawn Fishery, and the Exmouth Gulf Prawn Managed Fishery are harvested in a manner that does not pose a threat of the incidental taking of sea turtles. Accordingly, the prohibitions on the importation of shrimp set forth in Section 609 of Public Law 101-162 do not apply to shrimp harvested in these three fisheries.
