Responsibility measures

The aquaculture farmer should set up an inventory, if not done already, of all installed and acquired equipment during the life cycle of a farm. This way, the number of items that are replaced or got lost can be tracked more easily.

Relevant type of aquaculture:

Fish Shellfish Seaweed

Relevant sea basin:

North

Relevant stage:

Monitoring and quantification

Related Barriers:

  • There is a lack of procedures for effective monitoring of the aquaculture farms.

  • To install any aquaculture infrastructure, you need a concession/license. To get this license, and to get it renewed, you need to follow the environmental criteria. This is mandatory for all infrastructures of all offshore sectors, but is not sufficient to monitor litter from aquaculture farms.
