Slimhere, FDA is more a symptom than a cause in your example. The Bay of Fundy like the Grand Banks collapsed back in the 1970s due to overfishing. But, if you have a link to the FDA regulation on guts that you cite, I'd be interested in the (market? safety??) rationale behind it. The Bay of Fundy has become dependent on salmon aquaculture, which in turn is also dependent on fishoil in the feed for growth and health. Too little marine ingredients in their diet and the salmon become more susceptible to disease.

Here's a Seattle Times article from 2005 on a sardine plant in Maine - https://www.seattletimes.com/business/one-us-sardine-plant-left/

Here was the same owner of that Maine sardine plant in that article above, filing this past week in bankruptcy court according to the WSJ - www.wsj.com/articles/pro-bankruptcy-briefing-fcf-fishery-bids-for-bumble-bee-insys-faces-creditor-over-legal-releases-food-co-ops-trustee-sues-ex-brass-for-80-million-11574432391?mod=searchresults&page=1&pos=3

And here's the sad state of affairs of Bay of Fundy sardines (technically, herring) - its all about the jobs and not sustainability. oceansnorth.org/en/blog/2019/08/why-decision-makers-are-in-the-dark-on-atlantic-herring/

Scientists have been scratching their heads for decades now, wondering why these regions have not bounced back like everyone thought they would. It's poked holes in the idea that fisheries can just bounce back from collapse if you leave them alone.
