Redfish harvesters call on Ottawa to reverse decision requiring observers for each trip

Fish harvesters on the west coast of Newfoundland are calling on Ottawa to overturn a decision they say could keep them from fishing for redfish, and brought their concerns to the Department of Fisheries and Oceans office in Corner Brook on Monday.

Dwan Street, president-elect of the Fish, Food and Allied Workers union, said harvesters face the requirement of an at-sea observer — which ensures compliance with fishery guidelines — on every trip they take.
 

"It's unheard of. It's ludicrous at this point in a fishery to expect that availability of observers," Street told CBC News Monday, adding there are only around five observers available for 10 vessels.
