Groundfish Fishery Management There are 90+ species of groundfish managed through the policies of the Pacific Fishery Management Council's Groundfish Fishery Management Plan and under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act and other federal laws. NOAA Fisheries Service governs commercial and recreational fisheries in federal waters from 3-200 nautical miles off the Washington, Oregon, and California coasts. NOAA Fisheries Service and Council policies are developed in cooperation with federal, state and tribal governments, and in consultation with industry, environmental and academic organizations.
