The Pacific Fishery Management Council, based in Portland, OR, is responsible for managing fisheries along the Pacific coast of the United States. Established by Congress in 1976, the Council oversees the management of various species including salmon, groundfish, coastal pelagic species, and highly migratory species. With a transparent public process, the Council engages in a comprehensive approach to ensure the sustainability and conservation of these fisheries. Through its advisory subpanels, management teams, and committees, the Pacific Fishery Management Council works collaboratively with stakeholders, fishing communities, tribes, and scientists to make informed decisions regarding fishery management plans and amendments. With a commitment to a transparent and inclusive process, the Council provides opportunities for public involvement and engagement, allowing individuals to contribute to the management of fisheries that are vital to their livelihoods, food sources, and recreational activities.Generated from the website
