I support this petition
 

There needs to be scientific research (not lead by Omega Protein) into the impacts of reduction fishing of menhaden in the Chesapeake Bay. I fully support limiting the amount of menhaden harvested from the Chesapeake Bay by reduction fishing, better oversight and consequences for bycatch and fish spills, and moving the majority of the menhaden harvest out of the bay.
