1Young Fishermen’s Development Act reauthorization
This section would change a date in section 5(a) of the Young Fishermen’s Development Act (33 U.S.C. 1144(a)). It would strike out the year 2026 and put in the year 2031. As the bill’s own title states, this reauthorizes the Young Fishermen’s Development Act, extending whatever period or authority section 5(a) ties to that year so it now runs through 2031 instead of ending in 2026.
