On a recent Sunday in June, a privately-owned fishing vessel with the capacity to hold around 280,000 pounds of whiting, was unloading around 50,000 pounds of the fish per hour at Pacific Seafood's new 78,000-square-foot processing plant in Warrenton, Oregon
The facility, which re-opened last year after a fire led to its closure in 2013, processes whiting as fresh and frozen fillets, headed and gutted (H&G), as well as groundfish and Dungeness crab.
