Shark and ray species exempt from wildlife trafficking prohibitions because they are subject to federal management plan

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) has developed a list of shark and ray species that are subject to a federal management plan and therefore exempt from the prohibitions of ORS 498.022 (Table 1).

The North Pacific Fishery Management Council’s (NPFMC) Gulf of Alaska Groundfish (GOAGF) Fishery Management Plan (FMP) includes all shark species found in the management area. For this FMP, ODFW included those species of shark with reported distributions that overlap the GOA-GF management in Table 1.

Several Western Pacific Fishery Management Council (WPFMC) Fishery Ecosystem Plans (FEPs) include entire taxonomic families, but individual species within those families may not occur in the fishery management area. For these family level listings, ODFW examined the distribution for each species within each family and included those that have reported distributions overlapping one or more WPFMC management areas in Table 1.
