To the Congress of the United States:
In accordance with the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act of 1976 (Public
Law 94 - 265; 16 USC 1801), I transmit herewith an exchange of Diplomatic Notes, together
with the present agreement, extending the governing international fishery agreement between the
United States and Poland, signed at Washington on August 2, 1976, until July 1, 1983. The
exchange of notes together with the present agreement constitute a governing international fishery
agreement within the requirements of Section 201(c) of the Act.
I urge that the Congress give favorable consideration to this extension at an early date. Several
U.S. fishing interests have urged prompt consideration of this agreement, and I therefore
recommend that the Congress consider issuance of a joint resolution to bring this agreement into
force before the agreement expires on July 1, 1982.
