Please reply to <nlen@nf.sympatico.ca>. Thanks. NSEN. From: Kathleen Parewick[SMTP:nlen@nf.sympatico.ca] Sent: Monday, March 23, 1998 12:34 Subject: Enquiry - Impacts of Aquaculture developments I've received a call recently from a gentleman in St. Alban's on the Connaigre Peninsula (South Coast of the Island) -- the region that is synonymous with the high-profile economic development focus that the Provincial Government here has placed on aquaculture -- one of our "strategic" sectors. As might be expected, there are arising some conflicts between residents and enterprise now that there are more than a few fish-farms hastily squat up beside homes, fishing berths and the like. The enquiry was a request for materials and contacts treating the theme of the impacts of aquaculture development on communities. In particular, the caller wishes to focus on Salmon and Rainbow Trout/Steelhead farms or their equal and impacts relating to their effluent, disease transmission, antibiotic usage, etc... Any suggestions? I know you all have some aquaculture developments in your province...anything to pass on? Thanks, Kathleen Parewick, Coordinator Newfoundland/Labrador Environmental Network (NLEN)
