This action prohibits the importation into the United States from New Zealand of all snapper, tarakihi, spotted dogfish, trevally, warehou, hoki, barracouta, mullet, and gurnard fish and fish products harvested by set nets and trawls in the inshore fisheries of the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island within the Maui dolphin’s geographic range.
