On behalf of the salmon farming industry in Atlantic Canada, the Atlantic Canada Fish Farmers Association (ACFFA) has written to Fisheries and Oceans Canada to address the potential SARA listing of Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) as Threatened and specifically the removal of the potential limitations on the “breeding, sale and use of Lumpfish as cleaner fish…and directed fishery for broodstock.”
Anyone wishing to provide input into the potential listing may submit feedback here:
Deadline to submit feedback is December 22, 2023.
