Jeonnam Fishermen Voluntarily Remove 274 Tons of Illegal Fishing Gear
[Asia Economy Reporter Kwon Haeyoung] The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries announced on the 30th that fishermen voluntarily removed 274 tons of illegal fishing gear, including non-standard coastal traps, installed around Deukryangman Bay in Jeollanam-do.
The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, upon continuous discovery of octopus traps violating mesh size and usage regulations along the coasts of Jangheung, Boseong, and Goheung in Jeollanam-do, led negotiations with local fishermen for voluntary removal before proceeding with forced removal. The 274 tons of traps collected this time were in accordance with this agreement.
