Excerpt from Interim Fisheries Zone Extension and Management Act of 1973, Vol. 3: Hearings Before the Subcommittee on Oceans and Atmosphere of the Committee on Commerce, United States Senate, Ninety-Third Congress, Second Session

This legislation also would significantly extend the claims of u.s. Jurisdiction over domestic anadromous fish, such as salmon, even to ranges far beyond the proposed 200 mile limit. This legislation is expressly interim in nature and would terminate as soon as the Law Of the Sea Conference now in progress puts into force a treaty regarding jurisdiction and conservation.

Since introduction of this legislation, many California coastal fishermen have told me that foreign fishing fleets, simply by staying outside the present 12 mile limit, can ignore fishery conservation practices decimating the fish population to the point where the continued existence of California coastal fishing itself would be endangered.
