Bill overview
This bill aims to protect the North Atlantic Right Whale population by temporarily halting the implementation of new rules regarding vessel strikes. It prevents the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration from updating the existing vessel strike reduction rule until specific mitigation protocols are fully developed and deployed. The bill also requires the Secretary to report on how these protocols will influence any proposed rule changes. This action is intended to ensure that any new regulations are based on effective strategies for whale protection.
