SUMMARY

This bill establishes a commercial shrimp permit for the commercial shrimp fishery. It also establishes the Shrimp Management Fund into which proceeds from the sale of a commercial shrimp permit and any other revenue intended to be used in support of issues related to management of the shrimp fishery must be deposited. The bill provides that if reporting in the fishery is required, failure to provide reports is cause for nonrenewal of a harvesting permit or wholesale seafood license.
