CaliforniaFish: commercial fishing.
What it does
(1) Existing law requires the receipts, reports, or other records filed with the department pursuant to specified laws, and the information contained therein, to, except as provided, be confidential and to not be public records, as specified.
More detail
This bill would revise and recast the above-described provision to additionally require certain landing receipts and records of fishing activities to be confidential and to not be public records, except for fish business identification numbers, fish business names, commercial fishing license numbers, commercial fisher names, vessel registration identification numbers, and vessel names, as provided.
(2) Existing law requires certain persons to report all fish sales, deliveries, transfers, and landings using an electronic fish ticket as prescribed pursuant to regulations adopted by the Fish and Game Commission, including a person engaged in specified activities who is required to have a marine aquaria receiver's license, as provided.
This bill would instead remove from the provision above relating to reports using an electronic fish ticket, that person engaged in specified activities who is required to have a marine aquaria receiver's license, as provided.
(3) Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
