The Revised Fisheries Control Regulations deemed sea lion hunting as an activity that requires the governor’s approval.

On April 14, 1905, the prefectural government issued Shimane Prefectural Ordinance No. 18 which revised the Fishing Industry Control Regulations (Shimane Prefectural Ordinance No. 130 of 1902), classifying sea lion hunting as an activity which requires the governor’s approval in order to prevent overhunting.
