Milolii on Hawaii Island is officially designated as the second Community-Based Subsistence Fishing Area in the state.

Signed into effect by Gov. David Ige, the coastline’s new position is meant to protect and conserve fish populations and habitats by combining traditional Hawaiian fishing practices with modern approaches to conservation, officials reported.
 

“We need young people to carry this work forward and encourage other communities to create community-based subsistence fishing areas for the benefit and future of the entire state,” the governor said.
