Summary
This bill requires the Under Secretary of Commerce for Standards and Technology and the Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to develop a standard methodology based on chemical analysis to identify the country of origin of seafood, with a focus on combating illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing. The methodology must be practical for field use, minimize processing time, and be testable on prepared seafood products, with pilot studies conducted on red snapper and tuna. The bill also authorizes the Department of Defense to provide maritime technical assistance, including observers and intelligence support, to other nations' maritime forces to combat illegal fishing and transnational organized crime.
