Coral Reef Finfish Closures

On 19 June 2009, Minister for Primary Industries, Fisheries and Rural and Regional Queensland Tim Mulherin announced he would seek an amendment to current regulations to implement two five-day closures for coral reef fin fish for 2009.

The two, five-day periods have been implemented as closed seasons to the taking of all coral reef fish in October and November this year around the new moon phases. The closures apply to all Queensland east coast waters between latitude 10°41´S and 24°50´S. The closures are designed to protect spawning aggregations of most coral reef fish species.

The closures for 2009 will be:

• 15 October to 19 October 2009;
• and 14 November to 18 November 2009
