Network is a unique and diverse 200-member coalition committed to sustainable
fish populations, ecosystems, and fishing communities. The Network's long-term
goals are to defend and implement the conservation gains made through (the
Network-led) passage of the reauthorized Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA), and to
realign fisheries management to be consistent with objectives for sustaining
healthy marine ecosystems as the basis of sustainable fisheries.

approaches in U.S. fisheries law as part of the next reauthorization of the
MSA. At the same time, we are committed to working with the Congress,
National Marine Fisheries Service, and regional fishery management councils on
national issues of concern to our members, particularly defense and
implementation of the MSA, ecosystem-based management, appropriations, and
national oceans policy. </SPAN></SPAN><SPAN

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">The mission of the Pew Environment Group is to
promote policies and practices that protect the global atmosphere, preserve
large intact wilderness ecosystems and conserve living marine resources.
For the past two decades, the Environment group of the Pew Charitable Trusts has
been a major force in driving conservation policy in the United States, and
increasingly internationally. The group's work is focused on reducing the scope

<P style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt">The Pew Charitable Trusts has played a major
leadership role in successfully promoting policies, both in the United States
and abroad, that protect the ocean environment and the life it contains.
We have been instrumental in bringing about many of the major improvements in
fisheries management and marine conservation that have occurred in the United
States since the mid 1990s. In addition, we have sponsored a large number
of groundbreaking research studies published in recent years that have
fundamentally changed the way in which the scientific community, the public,
policymakers and the media think about the world's marine environment.</P>
