Title: Protection of Striped Bass and Red Drum Fish Populations; Executive Order (E.O.) 13449 
Abstract: This action would implement no-sale provisions of red drum and striped bass caught in the U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) contained in Executive Order (E.O.) 13449. This E.O. established a policy of the United States to conserve striped bass and red drum for the recreational, economic, and environmental benefit of present and future generations of Americans, based on sound science and in cooperation with State, territorial, local, and tribal governments, the private sector, and others, as appropriate. The E.O. encourages, as appropriate, management under Federal, State, territorial, tribal, and local laws that supports the policy of conserving striped bass and red drum, including State designation as gamefish where the State determines as designated appropriate under applicable law. The E.O. requires the Secretary of Commerce to periodically review the status of the striped bass and red drum populations within waters subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Nothing in the E.O. precludes or restricts the production, possession, or sale of striped bass or red drum fish that have been produced by aquaculture.
