Press release from the Environmental Protection Information Center:
In response to news from Nordic Aquafarms and Humboldt County that the
county will pursue a full environmental impact report for the proposed fish farm, a coalition of
North Coast environmental organizations thank the company and county for listening to
community concern and their commitment to rigorous environmental review.
“Our organizations called for the preparation of an environmental impact report because we
believed that this project which is unlike anything seen before in Humboldt County or even the
state of California could benefit from more thorough environmental impact review and public
participation,” said Jennifer Kalt, director of Humboldt Baykeeper.
