Nothing in this Act shall be construed in derogation of applicable law regarding the production of animal feed, and offshore aquaculture operations shall comply with all applicable law (including regulations). The Secretary shall require that fish meal, or any fisheries-derived marine feed ingredients (both first-use and trimmings), used at offshore aquaculture facilities in the exclusive economic zone— are sourced from a sustainably managed fishery for aquaculture feed; employ traceability sufficient to credibly demonstrate the ingredients were sourced from a sustainably managed fishery for aquaculture feed; are harvested and produced without convict, forced, or indentured labor; and are delivered to the cultured species as part of a formulated feed.
Not later than 2 years after the date of enactment of the Advancing the Quality and Understanding of American Aquaculture Act , the Secretaries of Commerce and Agriculture, through the coordinating group, shall conduct a study of the best management practices related to sustainable, economic feed for the United States marine aquaculture industry. The study shall— recommend best practices for sourcing fish meal from sustainably managed fisheries for aquaculture feed; recommend best practices to provide traceability on the source of fish meal ingredients; recommend best practices for sourcing formulated feed ingredients from domestic sources; and recommend best practices for harvesting and producing fish meal so that it can be known that it is harvested and produced without convict, forced, or indentured labor.
Upon completion of the study under subsection (c), the Secretaries of Commerce and Agriculture shall prepare and submit a report containing the recommendations described in subsection
(c)to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate and the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives.
