The Secretary of Commerce shall treat the Proclamation of a State Emergency and associated Executive order issued by the Governor of California on January 17, 2014, as a request for the Secretary to determine under sections 312(a) and 315 of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1861a(a) and 1864) that there is a commercial fisheries failure and catastrophic regional fishery disaster, respectively, for fisheries that originate in the State of California.
It is the sense of the Congress that if the drought conditions continue as projected and negatively impact the fisheries originating in the State of California, and the communities and industries that depend on them, then the Secretary— should look favorably upon such request; and should immediately propose regulations to provide disaster assistance, funds, and other assistance under, and otherwise implement, such sections with respect to such request, to ensure timely relief for impacted parties.
