The North Pacific Fishery Management Council is a regional council established in 1976 to manage fisheries in the 200-mile Exclusive Economic Zone off the coast of Alaska. They work to ensure sustainable fishing practices and protect the marine ecosystem in the North Pacific region.
The council holds regular meetings to discuss fisheries issues, develop management policies, and make decisions regarding catch shares and allocations. They also have various advisory groups and plan teams that contribute to their decision-making process. The council is committed to honoring the Indigenous Peoples of the region and acknowledges the Dena ina, who have stewarded the land for generations.
