Bill overview
The Domestic Seafood Production Act aims to boost the U.S. seafood industry by incentivizing domestic processing capacity and strengthening local supply chains. It directs the Secretary of Agriculture and Commerce to develop a plan identifying communities in need of seafood processing infrastructure and providing grants for pilot projects and rehabilitation of existing facilities. The bill also prohibits the federal government from funding or regulating commercial finfish aquaculture operations in the Exclusive Economic Zone without specific congressional approval, and it evaluates the effectiveness of these efforts.
