TERRITORY OF GUAM FISHERIES DEVELOPMENT AND MANAGEMENT PLAN
Under Executive Order 79-6, Governor Paul M. Calvo established the
Guam Marine Fisheries Advisory Council (G-TAC) and charged it with
the responsibility of preparing a Fishery Development and Management
Plan for the Territory. This plan will ultimately be integrated into
the Comprehensive Economic Development Plan, currently being
prepared under the auspices of the Guam Department of Commerce. The
Fishery Development and management Plan will also become an integral
part of efforts by the Pacific Basin Development Council (PBDC) to
develop fisheries in the U. S. Pacific Islands. Funds are presently
being earmarked by the Department of Commerce, NOAA, and NMFS to
enable PBDC to incorporate the fisheries development plans of all
island members into an Overall Pacific Fishery Development Plan.

Guam's Small-Boat-based Fisheries - Nearly 900 finfish
species and a similar number of macroinvertebrate species inhabit
the waters surrounding Guam. Approximately one-third of the species
of finfishes and a smaller contingent of the invertebrates are
utilized in the subsistence or commercial fisheries. Guam's
exploited fisheries resources can be divided into the following five
major groups based on biology and harvest method: Marine
invertebrates, reef fishes, bottomfishes, pelagic fishes, and bigeye
scad.
