Lost Filladhoo pole-and-line FAD replaced

The lost Filladhoo pole-and-line FAD has been replaced.

During the Fisheries Ministry's technical team's ongoing trip to the north, this FAD was deployed at its previous location, 15 miles east of HA. Filladhoo. The number of the newly established pole-and-line FAD is C09D01-01.

During this trip to the north by the Ministry's team, the lost HA. Kelaa pole-and-line FAD was also replaced last Wednesday. There are 4 pole-and-line FADs in HA. Atoll.

Pole-and-line FADs are FADs specifically deployed for pole-and-line fishing or skipjack tuna fishing. It is legally prohibited to conduct other types of fishing in the area surrounding these FADs in a way that obstructs pole-and-line fishing vessels.
