“some Norwegian fishermen have been granted seasonal licences to catch the Kamchatka crab but stiff regulations on the size of the boat used and other criteria mean they are few in number.”

It appears the government is the source of the problem, how unusual.

And there that disconnect is. At least in part. Seasonal licenses and boat regulations... As you say, typical.

Perhaps the boats are emitting too much greenhouse gases??? *rolls eyes*
