CHINA
Thursday, October 03, 2024
Every year, within the framework of the Russian-Chinese Intergovernmental Agreement on Cooperation in the Field of Protection, Regulation and Reproduction of Living Aquatic Resources in the Border Waters of the Ussuri and Middle Amur Rivers, the fisheries protection agencies of the two countries carry out joint control measures.
The raid was organized in anticipation of the ban on fishing, which is in effect from October 1 to 20.
The Russian delegation visited fishing camps in China, where they familiarized themselves with documents permitting fishing, examined fishing boats and fishing gear, as well as the harvested aquatic bioresources. A conversation was held with fishermen about the need to comply with the Fishing Rules.
Joint control was carried out in full, in a businesslike and friendly atmosphere. No violations of the Rules for the protection, regulation and reproduction of fish stocks in the border waters of the Amur and Ussuri rivers were identified. Based on the results of the activities, the parties signed a protocol.
The next stage of cooperation will be a meeting of the Working Commission for the Management of Fisheries in the Border Waters of the Amur and Ussuri Rivers in November 2024.

The bay of Pasaia was the setting for the spectacular launch of the latest vessel from the Zamakona Shipyard. The ship, the Eidsvaag Atlas, was commissioned by a Norwegian shipping company and will be used to transport fish feed by sea, according to sources at the port of Pasaia. Representatives from the shipbuilding company, the Scandinavian shipping company, and the president of the Port Authority of Pasaia, Izaskun Goñi, participated in the launching ceremony at 6:30 p.m., which was attended by numerous onlookers and boating enthusiasts.
In addition to a significant portion of the suitable land in the five areas where floating wind farms can be located in Galicia, the Maritime Spatial Planning Plans (POEM) approved by the Government in February 2023 eliminated the possibility, present in the initial draft, of classifying these areas as "priority use" zones for offshore energy over other activities. They were reclassified as simply "high-potential" areas. "It has been very important to have the information, the input, and the participation of all public and private stakeholders."

For many years, Aquaculture UK, the country’s biggest trade event for the aquaculture sector, has been synonymous with the Highland town of Aviemore. All that is about to change, however, as the city of Glasgow prepares to host the show for the first time in recent years.
Aquaculture UK, to be held this year from June 16-17 at the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) by the River Clyde in Glasgow, has moved from its long-term base to Scotland’s biggest city. It will mean, say organisers Diversified Communications, that the event will be able to accommodate the growing demand for exhibition space and provide easy access for exhibitors and visitors.
