HJM 4008: Marine Mammal Protection Act

Requesting modification of the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Summary

  • Seals and sea lions are identified as active predators of anadromous fish such as salmon and steelhead. In order to allow certain salmon and steelhead populations to recover and be sustained at viable levels, the memorial finds that it is necessary to have more flexibility to manage seals and sea lions in identifiable areas where they cause unacceptable mortality levels in specific fish runs.
