RELEASES 2005
This public notice serves to advise all Beche-de-mer fishermen,
licensed exporters and the general public that the Fishery will
reopen as of 16th January 2005.
NFA and the provincial fisheries officers will be conducting random
checks on licensed facilities around the coastal provinces for evidence
of beche-de-mer being caught and processed prior to open date.
Fishermen and operators are therefore advised to refrain from collecting,
processing, buying and selling, and storing Beche-de-mer before
16 January. Anyone found conducting these activities prior to this
date would be dealt with accordingly.
Note: That ONLY PNG citizens are allowed under the Fisheries Management
Act 1998 to be involved in the beche-de-mer fishery activity.
