Requires new ways to track seafood origin to fight illegal fishing
This bill would make federal agencies create a new chemical test to figure out where seafood comes from. The goal is to help law enforcement catch illegal fishing operations. This means a new tool for agencies to use, which doesn't exist today.
Today, there is no standard chemical method to identify where seafood comes from to help fight illegal fishing. If this bill becomes law, key federal agency leaders would develop such a method, including a portable field kit, and report to Congress on its implementation within two years.
