Oregon Marine Reserves Update

[FishNews]

ASA and its Oregon representative continue to engage with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) officials, state legislators and angler groups to refine Oregon's process for establishing marine reserves. ASA is focusing on the four study areas and providing input on the criteria to determine how and if these study areas will become new reserves. Community groups for each study area began meeting in January. Industry interests were represented at these meetings.
