U.S. Government Task Force on Combating IUU Fishing and Seafood Fraud

Topic:

Categories:

  • Government Initiative

A U.S. federal government Task Force on Combating IUU Fishing and Seafood Fraud—made up of a broad range of federal agencies—took a step to address these issues and published an action plan for combating IUU. The action plan identified 15 actions that would strengthen enforcement; create and expand partnerships with state and local governments, industry, and nongovernmental organizations; and create a risk-based traceability program to track seafood from harvest to entry into U.S. commerce. The plan also highlights ways in which the United States will work with foreign partners to strengthen international governance, enhance cooperation, and build capacity to combat IUU fishing and seafood fraud.
