U S Opens Central Pacific Fishing Zone to All Nations
The United States opened about 1.75 million square miles in the Central Pacific to commercial fishing by any nation on a non discriminatory basis subject to navy licenses. Foreign fleets may fish near Eniwetok and off Marshall, Caroline and Marianas islands and build canneries, with licenses subject to revocation for security or local-interest concerns. Russia is seen as a likely early applicant.
