E-MAIL ACTION NETWORK

Our Email Action Network is a service we provide to everyone, free of charge, who would like to take a more active role in conserving our nation's fisheries. The Network sends brief (2-3 paragraphs) periodic updates and action alerts about fish and fishing related issues directly to your email address. We have 7 lists available, depending on what interests you (see choices below).

Our purpose is to keep interested people informed on the issues, and notify you of opportunities when you can take an active role in conserving fisheries by weighing in with public officials. Someone signed up for all 7 lists can expect an average of 3 emails per month.

Example of an action alert item: NOAA Fisheries is making changes to fishing regulations for a (particular species in your area), and has opened up a 60 day comment period. . . The alert will contain specific instructions on how to comment, to whom and when, with suggested points to make.

Example of an update: NOAA Fisheries just approved the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council's dolphin/wahoo fishery management plan. . .

OUR PRIVACY POLICY:  We are mindful of the volume of e-mail you receive each day and will provide you only with the information described above. In addition, we respect your privacy. Your e-mail address will only be used for E-mail Action Network purposes. E-mail lists will not contain visible e-mail addresses, so others on the list will not see your address. NCMC never sells or rents its subscriber or membership lists.

Each email you receive will include a link to a subscription box enabling you to change your subscription.
