. The Legislature finds and declares:

California's salmon and groundfish fisheries, have caused significant

their optimum yield.
(b) That the California Salmon Fishery has been severely affected
by regulations imposed by the Pacific Fishery Management Council and
the federal Department of Commerce.
(c) That the membership of the Pacific Fishery Management Council
has never included a commercial salmon troll fisherman and has at

to the fishery management plans of the council.
