I submit agreement to regulating purse seines in Virginia waters in a way that allows them to function as intended:

1) not to drag across the bay or sea floor, in order to prevent disruption of habitat, allowing non-target animals to escape the net, and to prevent pollution from net snags

2) regulatory oversight of fishing practices, including fines for overharvesting and fish spill damage from ripped nets and illicit bycatch 

3) would like to see Omega Protein Inc and others lose the right to reduction harvest within the Chesapeake Bay watersheds and  have all industrial business practices excluded within TWO MILES of the entrance to the Chesapeake Bay
