Outreach & Education

Commercial Outreach

The purpose of the commercial outreach program is to prevent the sale of contaminated fish, identified as "Do Not Eat" species, in local markets and restaurants in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Based on consumer protection laws and enforcement standards, three key points are conveyed during outreach:

  • Buy fish only from approved sources, such as licensed fish wholesalers, distributors or commercial fishermen.
  • Know where your fish was caught.
  • Keep and file all invoices when fish is purchased.
