Final Report
The Special Committee on Sustainable Aquaculture was tasked to inquire into and give recommendations on the economic and environmental impacts of the aquaculture industry in BC; the economic impact of aquaculture on BC's coastal and isolated communities; sustainable options for aquaculture in BC that balance economic goals with environmental imperatives, focusing on the interaction between aquaculture, wild fish and the marine environment; and BC's regulatory regime as it compares to other jurisdictions. Through the extensive public consultation process, the Committee identified a number of key areas and two concepts. The two concepts are the New Relationship and how to make sure that its principles underlined the continued development of the aquaculture industry; and that of ecosystem-based management, which seeks to integrate healthy full-functioning ecosystems and human communities. Members of the Special Committee on Sustainable Aquaculture made 52 recommendations in this report.--Document.
