Chilean salmon farmer Nova Austral has been ordered to pay a fine of CLP 150 million ($190,000) after a high court found the group guilty of under-reporting mortalities at is sites in Magallanes.
The First Court of Punta Arenas determined the company misreported the overall deaths to Chile's National Fisheries and Aquaculture Service (Sernapesca) last year, and ordered the group to pay the fine which was the maximum amount, given the violations.
