Oregon Fishermen's Cable Committee (OFCC) is an association of Oregon commercial trawl fishermen dedicated to protecting the integrity of the fiber optic network and fishing grounds. They have negotiated cooperative agreements with fiber optic cable companies and work to facilitate communication, coordination, and cooperation between the fishing industry and the submarine cable industry.
OFCC aims to inform the fishing fleet about appropriate operation procedures and provides updates and resources for chart plotting programs. They have successfully recovered fishing gear and science platforms, and they are involved in the installation of the Jupiter Cable system, which will connect Oregon to California, Japan, and the Philippines.
