Not knowing” will no longer be an excuse for illegal fishers
20.10.2013
Informative signboards and demarcation polls were placed in Gökova Special Environmental Protection Area at 16 different spots with the aim of informing the public about no-fishing zones, which will eliminate the excuse of “We did not know”.
Signboards and demarcation polls were placed at 16 points with the aim of increasing the visibility of the no-fishing zones and to explain their borders better in Gökova Special Environmental Protection Area (SEPA) by the Mediterranean Conservation Society (AKD), under the context of “the Strengthening the System of Marine and Coastal Protected Areas of Turkey” project.
This effort is expected to eliminate the excuse of “We did not know” used by the illegal fishers.
