Nordic Aquafarms' land-based salmon farming project has received all of its necessary state and city permits to build its 33,000-metric-ton land-based salmon farm in Belfast, Maine.
The company expects to soon also receive federal permits from the US Army Corps soon and move forward with construction of the massive land-based salmon farm in Maine.
"The state permits have been appealed by the opponents, but due to the thorough vetting by the DEP (Maine Department Of Environmental Protection), we don't consider that a high risk," Marianne Naess, executive vice president of commercial for Nordic, told IntraFish.
