Sperm Whale Reserve (west coast offshore waters)
Co tato zóna je
Přehled
Jak je harpunový rybolov upravován v Sperm Whale Reserve (west coast offshore waters).
World's first sperm whale reserve, established by the Sperm Whale Reserve Act, 2025 (passed by Parliament 14 October 2025; Reserve Board appointed by Cabinet 24 March 2026 to implement the Act). Covers 923.3 sq km of Dominica's western territorial sea/EEZ starting 2 nautical miles offshore (Schedule 1); within the Reserve, s.22(1)(m) makes it an offence to fish - including spearfishing - without a licence issued under s.11 of the Fisheries Act, overriding the usual s.11(2) sport-fishing exemption, and vessel, tourism and cetacean-approach restrictions apply. Nearshore waters (0-2 nm), the SSMR and Cabrits NP are outside this Reserve's boundary.
