Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade

Promoting American Seafood Competitiveness and Economic Growth

This executive order directs federal agencies to reduce regulatory barriers for domestic fishing and aquaculture, combat illegal fishing, streamline permitting for offshore aquaculture projects, establish designated aquaculture zones, and develop a comprehensive seafood trade strategy. It creates multiple task forces and deadlines across Commerce, Agriculture, Army Corps of Engineers, and other agencies to expand U.S. seafood production and reduce reliance on imports.
