Alaska Statutes.

Title 16. Fish and Game

Chapter 10. Fisheries and Fishing Regulations

Section 172. Legislative Policy On Utilization of Herring.

AS 16.10.172. Legislative Policy On Utilization of Herring.

The legislature finds the following: (1) extensive and valuable herring populations are available for harvest in waters subject to the jurisdiction of the state; (2) commercial markets are available for herring processed in several forms; (3) one processing technique presently employed involves deliberately permitting decomposition of the herring carcass to allow for removal and subsequent sale of the roe product, with the consequence that the flesh is unusable and discarded. The legislature declares that the process referred to in (3) of this section is wasteful and does not constitute utilization of this resource for the maximum benefit of the people. Therefore, it is the policy of the legislature that this process should be eliminated to the fullest extent possible.
