Ere U.S.-Korean Agreement Concerning Cooperation in Fisheries 
Provisions of this agreement are summarized below: 
"The United States agreed to provide technical advice on 
shellfish sanitation and salmon propagation to Korea. 
(Article IT). 
Three loading areas were established within the United States 
contiguous zone in the Bering Sea for Korean fishing boats 
to transfer their cargoes. (Article III). 
Both nations agree to exchange scientific and statistical data 
and to assist in development of joint participation ventures 
in commercial fisheries. (Articles I, IV). 
Korea agreed te refrain from fishing for salmon and halibut 
in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea east of 
175° west longitude... (Article V). 
The two nations agreed to consult on and limit gear conflicts 
and to refrain from practices which would result in pollution 
of the sea.? (Articles VI, VII)." 
On March 1, 1977, United States unilateral extension of juris- 
diction over fishery resources will extend westward beyond the 
abstention line of 175° West Longitude. Renegotiation of this 
agreement will therefore be necessary if it is to continue in force.
