We Endorse Flexibility in the Scallop Fishery

As representatives of businesses and industries that support and rely on a healthy scallop fleet, we endorse the Scallopers Campaign request that the New England Fishery Management Council prioritize the discussion and development of a voluntary leasing program.

The Atlantic sea scallop fishery is the most economically important fishery on the East Coast – and to continue its prominence it must secure operational flexibility.
A successful, voluntary leasing program will provide the fleet with much-needed options for operational flexibility and will provide sustainability and economic stability for vessel owners, crew members, and support industries alike.
The resulting operational efficiencies will conserve fuel and improve the economic benefits for scallop vessel owners and crewmembers.
A leasing program will also generate important benefits for local economies and spur new vessel construction and major upgrades that will improve safety at sea for crew.
Newer vessels and more efficient engines will reduce the fleet’s carbon footprint.
