Ep: 068 - Conflict with Aquaculture

ENVIRONMENTALLY SPEAKING

This week are going to discuss an issue we are seeing here with Aquaculture. We did a show once before about what Aquaculture is (Ep: 017 - https://bit.ly/3RnpZke). But to recap, it’s the farming of sea life for consumption.

Today however we are going to discuss a conflict of uses of any submerged land that is adjacent to the coastline out to three nautical miles is in the custody and control of the state.

Here is the article we reference during the show: http://bit.ly/40fzfLv
