The legislature declares that stripping roe from pollock without utilizing the flesh is wasteful and does not constitute utilization of this resource for the maximum benefit of the people. Therefore, it is the policy of the state that
(1) roe stripping be eliminated to the fullest extent possible; and
(2) pollock taken in a commercial fishery should be utilized for human consumption to the fullest extent practicable.
