The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is requesting public input regarding the potential need for protective regulations for 20 coral species listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). If NMFS applies all of the prohibitions contained in Section 9(a)(1) of the ESA to the 20 listed coral species, a range of activities would become prohibited under federal law unless a party obtains further authorization from NMFS. These prohibited activities would include importing or exporting the species; possessing, transporting or selling the listed species; or handling, capturing, or holding the species in captivity. (See more: here)
PIJAC is working to ensure that the regulations are fair, based on scientific study, and will help to protect both the environment and the marine aquaria hobby.
FMAS will match your donation, DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR, up to a maximum of $5000.
