The resolution, which bears the signature of the Minister of Production, Raúl Pérez Reyes, also states that said period may be modified if the Instituto del Mar del Perú - IMARPE, evidences changes in the evolution of the reproductive process of the aforementioned resource, to which must send the recommendations with the corresponding measures to the Ministry of Production.
