ManagingOur MarineResourcesThe Marine Fisheries Division of the NH Fishand Game Department is responsible for theregulation and promotion of recreational andcommercial marine fishing in the salt waters ofthe state. State waters include all waters within3 miles of the coastline; the area between 3and 200 miles from shore is under the jurisdictionof the Federal government. The MarineDivision conducts scientific investigationsto monitor marine resources and habitat aswell as the harvest of fishery resources withinstate waters. We also work with other statesthrough the Atlantic States Marine FisheriesCommission, as well as the New EnglandFisheries Management Council, to managemarine species throughout their range.The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission(www.ASMFC.org) was formedby the 15 Atlantic coast states in 1942, inrecognition that fish do not adhere to politicalboundaries. The Commission serves as adeliberative body, coordinating the conservationand management of the states’ sharednear-shore fishery resources – marine, shell,and anadromous – for sustainable use.The Commission’s mission is to promotethe better utilization of the fisheries of theAtlantic seaboard by the development of ajoint program for the promotion and protectionof such fisheries, and by the preventionof physical waste of the fisheries from anycause. It currently manages more than 26 species,including lobster, striped bass, bluefish,Atlantic sea herring, spiny dogfish, northernshrimp, and river herring. New Hampshire isrepresented on the ASMFC by three commissioners,including one representative fromFish and Game’s Marine Fisheries Division.The New England Fishery ManagementCouncil (www.NEFMC.org) is one of eightregional fishery councils created in 1976.NEFMC manages the living marine resourcesin the Federal waters (between 3 and 200miles offshore) off the New England coastline.The NEMFC includes three New Hampshiremembers – the head of the Marine Division aswell as two local fishermen.
