The US gov is claiming because the law states they may collect "fees," the fisherman must pay the salaries of the observers at $700/day. According to the plaintiff's attorneys, that would add up to about 20% of the total value of the catch, effectively putting them out of business.

Because you see, being populated with eco-kooks, that's what the gov is really trying to use it's "interpretative deference" to do: stop all fishing.

So called "Chevron deference" just provides cover for government lawlessness.
