A license is required for fish processing and/or aquaculture sites in our province.
Processing applications for new licenses, license transfers and changes in ownership must be forwarded to an independent Fish Processing Licensing Board. The Board in reviewing these applications makes a recommendation to the Minister who will make the final decision.
Parties interested in applying for an aquaculture licence must submit their application to the department. Information contained in the application must demonstrate expertise in the industry, financing capability, and a business plan.
