Salmon Farm Companies Seek Massive Expansion
Fish farm companies in BC are seeking approval from the provincial government to roughly double current licensed production on several farms in critical wild salmon migration routes such as the Broughton Archipelago and the northern Georgia Strait. On a site-by-site basis, some farms could triple, quadruple or increase six-fold their current licensed production levels.
