The Department of Marine Resources (DMR) is holding a public hearing on the aquaculture proposal listed below:
The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC), under Addendum IV to the Interstate Fisheries Management Plan for American Eel, allows states to annually submit an aquaculture plan requesting up to 200 pounds of glass eels from within their waters for domestic aquaculture facilities, if certain criteria are met.
