3 US conservation groups sue US govt for not enforcing Marine Mammal Protection Act's seafood import mandates.
3 US conservation groups sue US govt for failing to enforce seafood import mandates under Marine Mammal Protection Act. They claim the US govt has not enforced the law, banning imports from fisheries in Mexico, Indonesia, India, SK, Ecuador, UK, and SA, which are said to kill too many marine mammals. The groups are seeking to enforce the import provisions of the Act, requiring countries exporting seafood to the US to prove their bycatch prevention measures meet US fisheries standards.
