Aqua-Cage Fisheries

The debate over fish farming in the Great Lakes is underway in Lansing. Committees in the state house are considering competing bills. One package of bills would create rules allowing what’s called cage or net pen aquaculture. Other legislation would ban fish farms in the Michigan waters of the Great Lakes. IPR News Director Peter Payette has been following this story and spoke with David Cassleman.
