NtM No5 of 2008 - Conservation area around wrecks
The Veterinary Regulation and Fisheries Conservation and Control within the VAFD has set a number of conservation areas around wrecks. These are considered as "NO STOPPING AREAS". Anchoring is allowed to divers' vessels only after pre-notification to the Valletta VTS. Masters of diving support vessels are to ensure that collisions at sea and international code of signals, are shown at all times. Furthermore, spear fishing and the use of fishing gear such as set bottom lines, trammel nets, gill nets and entangling nets, encircling nets, demersal pots and traps are prohibited in these areas. Only surface fishing is allowed including trolling lines (rixa) and angling for pelagic fish. (Other charts affected).This data was funded by of one of the co-financed EU LIFE+ Funding Programmes - LIFE BaĦAR for N2K project.
