Allowing the landing of salmon caught in other states'
offshore waters in Washington ports.
AN
ACT Relating to the delivery of salmon into the ports of the state; and adding
a new section to chapter 75.28 RCW.
BE IT
ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
NEW
SECTION. Sec. 1. A
new section is added to chapter 75.28 RCW to read as follows:
(1)
The legislature finds that landing salmon into the ports of Washington state,
regardless of where such salmon have been harvested, is economically beneficial
to those ports as well as to the citizens of the state of Washington. It is
therefore the intent of the legislature to encourage this practice.
(2)
Notwithstanding the provisions of RCW 75.28.010(1)(b) and 75.28.113, a
Washington citizen who holds a valid Oregon or California salmon troll license
may land salmon taken during lawful seasons in Oregon and California into
Washington ports without obtaining a salmon delivery license. This exception
is valid only when the salmon were taken in offshore waters south of Cape
Falcon.
(3)
The department shall adopt rules necessary to implement this section, including
rules identifying the appropriate methods for verifying that salmon were in
fact taken south of Cape Falcon.
