North Pacific council: no pollock for Adak


Wednesday, December 12 2007
Unalaska, AK – An attempt by Adak fish processors to snag a piece of the Bering Sea pollock fishery fizzled on Tuesday, the last day of the North Pacific Fishery Management Council's meeting in Anchorage. Representatives of Adak Fisheries, a local processing company on the island, say that federal fisheries regulations have routinely hamstrung Adak's attempts to develop its only available industry, and now the town has few options.
