摘要: Almost 10 years have passed since the first comprehensive safety regulations aimed at reducing fatalities in the commercial fishing industry were published in the U.S. These regulations were written to implement the Commercial Fishing Vessel Safety Act of 1988. The Act and the pursuant regulations sought to give fishermen adequate emergency safety equipment and minimum safety education to help them survive fishing vessel casualties until rescue. The rules have had a positive impact on the fatality rates for the fishing industry; however, recent experience has shown that more needs to be done to make commercial fishing no more dangerous than any other segment of the marine industry. This article describes the U.S. Coast Guard's Commercial Fishing Vessel Safety Action Plan and other efforts designed to improve safety practices in the U.S. commercial fishing fleet.
