These stocks had | so seriously depleted by un- cted fishing that it had be- me unprofitable. Under regula- ns by the Commission, the stocks on these northwest banks have been improved until they now af- ford the finest halibut fishing in the world and provide greatly in-| creased annual catches. The work of the Commission is an outstand- ing demons ion of what can be accomplished by practical inter- national cooperation. The Commission concsis of four members, two from each country. Present members are Edward W Allen, of Seattle; A. J. Whitmore, of the Canadian Department of Fisheries, Ottawa, Ontario; Milton C. James, of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, Wash- ingten, D. C.; and G. W. Nicker- of Prince Rupert, B. C. Alien are Chairman and during the son, and Nickerson Secretary, respectively, current year. The halibut regulations are bas- ed upon the results of biological and statistical investigations car- ried out by the Commission's staff of fishery biologists. They are guided from year to year by cur- rent investigations of the effect of past regulations with representa- tives of the halibut fishermen and vessel owners in the major halibut ports. 1947 Regulations The 1947 regulations are similar in most respects to those of last vear. As indicated, only two im- portant changes have been made, namely the relocation of the boun- dary line between Areas 3 and 4 and the setting of a catch limit for Area 4. The coast is divided into five areas for reguiatory purposes. Area 1A includes waters south of Cape Blanco, Oregon. Area 1B lies be- tween Cape Blanco and Willapa Harbor, Wash. Prior to 1946 these two areas together formed a single area, Area 1. Area 2 includes the waters between Willapp Harbor and Cape Spencer, Alaska. Area 3 covers the waters from Cape Spen- cer to a line running true we from Cape Sarichef on Unimak I land. Area 4 includes those waters of the Bering Sea lying north ot | the line running from Cape Sari- | chef | New Boundary i The boundary between Areas 3 and 4 was relocated to place the grounds immediately north of the Aleutian Islands in Area 3. This}| change was based on investigations | which indicated that the halibut on these grounds form a part of the Area 3 stock. The Area 2 catch limit of 24,500, | 000 pounds and the Area 3 limit of 28,000,000 pounds remain the same as in 1946. A catch limit of 500,- 000 pounds has been set for Area 4! which heretofore has not been fished commercially and did not require a limit. There are no catch limits for Areas 1A and 1B. Season Opens May 1 The fishing season is again open- ed in all areas on May 1. It ends in Areas 1B and 2 when the Area 2 catch limit is taken, and in Areas 1A and 3 when the Area 3 catch| limit is reached. Area 4 closes at the same time as Area 3, unless it | has been closed earlier by reason of the attainment of its own catch limit.
