16 U.S.C. § 4001 — Congressional findings

The Congress finds that— (1) the commercial fishing industry of the United States significantly contributes to the national economy, and could make a greater contribution if fish resources within the United States Exclusive Economic Zone were more fully utilized; (2) the commercial fisheries of the United States provide significant employment in coastal areas and in processing and distribution centers; (3) fish contribute an important nutritional component to the American diet; (4) increased consumption of seafood in the United States could significantly lower the risk of many cardiovascular diseases; (5) Federally supported development programs for commercial fisheries are unable to meet present and future marketing needs; (6) many fish species are underutilized by the United States fishing industry because of underdeveloped markets; and (7) the United States fishing industry has the potential to expand greatly its contribution to interstate and foreign commerce, favorably affecting the balance of trade.
