Abstract

After intensive deliberations, the Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council concluded their week-long meeting in August 2002 by voting to approve a limited entry program for the longline fishery in American Samoa’s exclusive economic zone (EEZ). Discussions on this issue began in 1997, due to concerns about rapid expansion of fishing effort and fleet size in the longline fishery around American Samoa.
