the Philippines">Philippine fisheries</a> that fall under the jurisdiction of local governments, namely <a href="/wiki/List_of_cities_and_municipalities_in_the_Philippines" title="List of cities and municipalities in the Philippines">cities and municipalities</a>. This includes all fisheries on inland waters, and in waters within 15 kilometres (9.3&#160;mi) of the coast. While the term may technically include <a href="/wiki/Aquaculture_in_the_Philippines" title="Aquaculture in the Philippines">aquaculture activities</a>, it is usually used to discuss capture fisheries. Municipal fisheries are restricted to boats of 3 <a href="/wiki/Gross_tonnage" title="Gross tonnage">gross tonnes</a> or smaller, and commercial fishing vessels are generally prohibited from fishing in these waters. </p><p>A variety of commodities are caught within municipal waters, from high-value products such as <a href="/wiki/Tuna" title="Tuna">tuna</a> to smaller species caught for domestic consumption. Most municipal fisherfolk work on an individual basis, some with simple fishing methods. While municipal fisheries are crucial for domestic nutrition and livelihoods, most fisherfolk are poor. While municipal fisheries once made up the majority of fishery output, by 2020 they produced only about a fifth of national production. </p><p>Municipal fisheries have historically been heavily overfished, especially as fishing industrialized after <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. Various efforts were made over time to ensure the sustainability of municipal fisheries, with current law under the Fisheries Code of 1998 banning commercial fishing from municipal waters and charging local governments with ensuring fisheries are sustainable. Local governments can implement more stringent regulations than the national baseline, as well as establish <a href="/wiki/Marine_protected_area" title="Marine protected area">protected areas</a> and
