North Pacific Fishery Management Council
The North Pacific Fishery Management Council, established in 1976 under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, is responsible for managing fisheries within the 200-mile Exclusive Economic Zone off the coast of Alaska. The Council convenes regularly to address various fisheries issues, develop management policies, and ensure sustainable fishing practices in the region.
Based in Anchorage, Alaska, the Council honors the Denaina people, the Indigenous stewards of the land, and aims to incorporate their cultural resilience and traditions into its management processes. Through ongoing meetings and collaboration with advisory committees, the Council actively engages in ecosystem-based management and prioritizes research to support the fisheries it oversees.
