The Health of U.S. Fisheries is Improving

"In 2013, as a result of the science-based management of U.S. fisheries, the status of our nation’s marine fish stocks continues to improve. In general, in 2013 we increased the overall percentage of stocks not listed on the overfishing or overfished lists: Seven stocks were removed from the overfishing list. Four stocks were removed from the overfished list." - excerpt from NOAA Fisheries' Status of Stocks 2013 report.
