This geoduck semi-autonomous diving ‘hookah’ type fishery started in 2004 as a commercial fishery, with 5 fishing permits, and has grown to 194 fishing permits. This fishing resource has become more important, as its demand increases in Asian countries. The FIP aims to strengthen the biological monitoring program and legal and customary framework.
