SB 5260: Salmon food fish labeling

Requiring salmon food fish to be labeled by its source and common name.

Summary

  • All fresh and frozen salmon sold in this state will be labeled with its common species name, its source (farmed or commercially caught), and its origin (domestic, imported, Washington-grown or Washington-caught). A sign near the product is sufficient; each piece or package does not have to be labeled.
