Tuna fishing limits loom as IATC may retreat
SAN DIEGO UP I The American Tunaboat Association chief August Felando predicts the Inter-American Tuna Commission will halt unrestricted yellowfin tuna fishing early in July under a newly adopted 84 500 ton quota. He warns the ban could cost about 13 250 000 in local economic losses as 61 000 tons have already been caught and prices have fallen from 358 to 265 per ton. Felando notes a shortened six to seven month fishing season and questions the impact of a 50 percent fleet expansion next year.
