Greenpeace sent CBP a “request” to impose penalties on Bumble Bee Tuna and other entities that it alleges have continued to import tuna from a fishing vessel subject to a CBP withhold release order, Greenpeace said in a May 1 news release. The request is “being made in line” with 19 U.S.C. 1595a(b), which provides for “a penalty equal to the value” of the imported goods on any person who aids unlawful importation. Greenpeace said it “found a Bumble Bee branded can of tuna containing fish caught by the reportedly blacklisted Da Wang at an Arlington, Virginia supermarket in April 2022.” It said a penalty was imposed on another importer for similar reasons in 2020 (see 2008140016). CBP didn’t immediately comment, nor did Greenpeace when asked for more details on the request.
