§ 2361 Commercial Salmon Size Import

• •Importing undersized salmon for commercial use is prohibited.
• •Only domestically reared salmon that meet hatchery definitions can be imported.
• •Import of allowed salmon must follow regulations set by the commission.

A market vendor tries to sell wild salmon that are too small to keep, but a fish farm can bring in salmon that were raised in a hatchery.

The vendor must stop selling the small wild salmon because the law forbids importing undersized fish for business. The fish farm can import its hatchery-raised salmon as long as it follows the commission's import rules.
