Message to the Congress Transmitting the United States-Spain Fishery Agreement

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 a governing international fishery agreement between the United States and Spain, signed at Washington on July 29, 1982.

This agreement is one of a series to be renegotiated in accordance with that legislation to replace existing bilateral fishery agreements scheduled to expire this year. I urge that the Congress give favorable consideration to this agreement at an early date.

RONALD REAGAN

The White House,

August 13, 1982.
