Grant Activity:
Aquaculture Farming Capacity Expansion, Northern Tasmania
Purpose:
This $4.48 million Project, which comprises Stages 2 and 3 of a larger $8.7 million investment, will expand Petuna s Atlantic Salmon farming capacity at its farm in Rowella, at the mouth of the Tamar River in Northern Tasmania. New pens will be constructed in an innovative new site layout, in which parts of the site will remain permanently fallow. This will ensure the long term environmental sustainability of the lease, encourage optimum fish health, and demonstrate international best practice in salmon farming. The Project will create 23 new ongoing FTEs with an additional 6 FTEs on 12-24 month contracts and a further 12 FTEs during construction.
