The SCDNR serves as the principal advocate for and steward of South Carolina’s natural resources. The responsibility of directing the focus of that mission specifically towards the state’s marine ecosystem lies with the Marine Resources Division. Sound resource management plays a major role in responsible stewardship, and a comprehensive and intimate understanding of those resources is essential for maintaining a balance between protection and user fulfillment. Long term statistical data is one tool the Marine Division utilizes as a means with which to identify the impact different user groups may have on the resource. This information provides the basis for agency recommendations and potential solutions that will ensure resource sustainability. Fishermen, both commercial and recreational, have a significant impact on fisheries resources.Collections
