Objectives (Since 2007)
To approach an Ecosystem-Based Management which offers the possibility of sustaining conch fisheries by addressing aspects of conch biology that directly support production and are otherwise overlooked in quota-based management.
To be successful applying of the Non Detrimental Findings procedures for the Queen Conch, according to the CITES criteria.

tApplying 8% Rule
Using the rule of 8% harvest at stock sizes (densities) below that of MSY is equivalent to adopting a strategy of constant fishing mortality (Medley, 2008, Appeldoorn 2010). This has the effect of reducing catch proportionally as density declines.
In addition, MPA zones, bank size, Illegal catch, juvenal recruitment, habitat, and deep are considered.
Additional regulations
Temporal Closures (Adaptive TAC System)
Permanent Closed Areas.
Limited Fishing Effort (boats and divers)

National progress and developments are threatened by IUU Fishing.
Regional Agreement and Cooperation.
Alternative livelihood projects are necessary for artisanal fishermen.
