Fisheries Enforcement Act.

This Act assigns the primary responsibility for fisheries enforcement to the Marshall Islands Marine Resources Authority and makes provision for the enforcement of fisheries law of the Marshall Islands, jurisdiction and civil procedures in relation to infringement of fisheries rules and the appointment and powers of authorized officers and observers. The Act also prohibits the contamination of Fishery Waters.
The Authority may authorize other entities, officials or persons to perform fisheries enforcement functions. In addition to any other fine or penalty provided for under this Act, the Court may order any person to be banned from fishing in the Fishery Waters for a period up to three years if that person has committed multiple offences against this Act.
Amendments incorporate provisions relating to IUU fishing.
