MENTS.

gress that automatic identification systems, originally con-

and on the high seas in order to manage shared use of 
the ocean, improve fisheries and natural resource manage-
ment, and deter and interdict illegal, unreported, or un-
regulated fishing and associated human trafficking, in-
cluding forced labor and oppressive child labor. 
(b) REQUIREMENT FOR FISHING VESSELS TO HAVE 
AUTOMATIC
IDENTIFICATION
SYSTEMS.—Section 
70114(a)(1) of title 46, United States Code, is amended—

economic zone, or on the high seas,’’ after ‘‘States,’’;
