Sri Lanka blue swimming crab - bottom gillnet (FIP)

Last Updated: 2021-06-04
Evaluation Start Date: 2013-11-01
Type: Comprehensive

Status: Active

FIP Lead: Seafood Exporters' Association of Sri Lanka (SEASL), Pelagikos Private Limited (PPL)

Comments:

FIP status remains active but FIP progress has been removed as the FIP profile is no longer active on FP. The FIP changed its objective from "reach a level equivalent to a pass against the MSC's Fisheries Standard", to "maintain the 'good alternative' eco-recommendation by the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program", which was achieved in December 2018
