Menhaden pause
 

The VMRC  should pause the menhaden industry inside the Chesapeake Bay. Waters east of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel and offshore should be regulated on menhaden fishing. The waters of the Chesapeake Bay west/ north of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnels should have a no fishing ban for menhaden for the foreseeable future!
