  • Description:
    An assessment was conducted to identify the needs of Connecticut's shellfish aquaculture industry. Participants identified and prioritized issues of importance through a mail survey, personal interviews, and an industry summit. Government and public relations, or lack thereof, are major constraints to the industry. Industry members are in favor of streamlining the permitting process, and developing positive relationships with regulatory agencies. Most wish to increase public awareness and acceptance of aquaculture and improve support from other users of the marine environment. A working group is being developed to address these issues through collaborative research, outreach, and education programs.
