For Immediate Release
ASMI celebrates the recent action by an independent adjudicator that will result in the recertification of the Alaska salmon fishery by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). This action speaks to the sustainability of the Alaska salmon fishery, which has been certified by MSC since October 2, 2000, and verifies Alaska’s science-based management efforts as the gold standard for fisheries around the world. ASMI appreciates the hard work of the Alaska Fisheries Development Foundation (AFDF), the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and others to ensure the certification and reputation of this important fishery remains intact.
See the press release from AFDF here and more information on the recertification by MSC here.
