Resumen

This Chapter of Division 12 of the Fish and Game Code of California provides rules for the leasing by the Fish and Game Commission of state water bottoms or the water column to any person for aquaculture, including, but not limited to, marine finfish aquaculture and prohibits engaging in marine finfish aquaculture in ocean waters within the jurisdiction of the State without a lease from the Commission. No state leases shall be issued, unless the commission determines that the lease is in the public interest in a public hearing conducted in a fair and transparent manner, with notice and comment, in accordance with commission procedures. Leases and Regulations adopted by the commission for marine finfish aquaculture shall meet, but are not limited to specified standards relating to, among other things: environmental impact assessment; interference with fishing, wildlife and marine habitats, impact on ecosystems; protection of benthic habitats; best management practices; use of drugs, chemicals, and antibiotics; tagging and marking; prevention the escape of farmed fish into the marine environment; a restoration or enhancement plan. No water bottom lease may be assigned without the prior approval of the Commission. A water bottom lease may require periodic reports that the Commission deems necessary for the proper administration of the state’s water bottoms.
