Order No. 397/97 establishing norms concerning bivalve catchment in the south western coast.

This Order establishes norms concerning bivalve catchment in the south western coast. Due to certain circumstances, this fishing area was reaching a saturation point. Fishing licensing of these specific molluscs, (Spisula solida), (Venus striatula), and (Pharus legumen) is restricted. Other shell and clam species imply a daily vessel limit. For control purposes unloading and selling are obligatory in certain harbours.
