By WorldCatch News Network

Jan. 31 - WorldCatch News Network - The Atlantic States Fisheries
Management Commission has a new executive director in U.S. Coast Guard
Capt. John Vincent O'Shea.

O'Shea has a long history in fisheries issues. He spent more than 30
years with the Coast Guard, much of it working with commercial fishermen.
During the early 1990s, he was in charge of fisheries law enforcement at the
Coast Guard's headquarters.

The past five years he worked in the Coast Guard's 12th District office
in Juneau, Alaska. He was the Coast Guard's representative to the North
Pacific Fishery Management Council and still is the Chief of Operations
for the 17th District.

The position of ASFMC executive director became vacant when John H.
Dunnigan left to become the director of the Office of Sustainable
Fisheries at the National Marine Fisheries Service. Dunnigan served the
ASFMC states for the past 11 years.

O'Shea will begin his new duties full-time on or before April 15.
