For legislation to create the department of marine fisheries resources. Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to create the Department of Marine Fisheries Resources, which would replace the existing Division of Marine Fisheries. The new department would have expanded responsibilities, including promoting and developing the commercial fishing industry, collecting and disseminating catch data and fisheries research, and advising the Governor on the potential impact of regulations on the fishing industry. The bill makes several amendments to Chapter 130 of the General Laws to reflect this change, replacing references to the "Division of Marine Fisheries" with the "Division of Marine Fisheries Resources" throughout the existing law.
