Menhaden purse seine
 

I am writing to you as I am concerned about the predatory fish being caught by purse-seine by Omega Protein Corporation. This has a profound impact on our waters and our economy as sport fishing is a large part of the economy. I am also concerned about the environment. I think it is very important to ensure that proper methods are being utilized when harvesting any environmental resources.

 

 

Thanks,

Alex Faiella
