National Aquaculture Act of 1980: P.L. 96-362

national aquaculture policy, including a formal National Aquaculture Development
Plan; established a Joint Subcommittee on Aquaculture on which officials of
USDA, Commerce, Interior, and nine other federal
agencies sit; designated USDA as the lead agency for coordination; and
authorized the National Aquaculture Information Center within the
