Coastal Sharks Fishing Moratorium Delayed by Federal Government - FishNews - 03-26-2010
The NJ DEP Division of Fish and Wildife has received notice that the federal government has agreed to give New Jersey until July 30 to implement regulations necessary to avoid a shark fishing moratorium. The state faced the moratorium this season due to non-compliance with regulations required in the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission's Atlantic Coastal Sharks Interstate Fishery Management Plan.
