Alaska Marine Conservation Council
Founded in 1994, the Alaska Marine Conservation Council (AMCC) is a community-based organization dedicated to protecting the long-term health of Alaska's oceans and sustaining the working waterfronts of Alaska's coastal communities. Our members – fishermen, subsistence harvesters, marine scientists, small business owners, conservationists, families and others who care about Alaska's oceans – are committed to AMCC's mission of protecting "the natural diversity and integrity of Alaska's marine ecosystems by working with the coastal communities whose well–being depends on healthy oceans."
