Offshore Fish Farm Virtual Hearing

September 30, 2020 @ 10:30 am - 6:00 pm

Free
Despite overwhelming public opposition to the Villela Epsilon offshore fish farm at the EPA hearing in Sarasota, the Army Corps of Engineers is set to issue a permit without holding a hearing. The farm, the first in a proposed Gulf aquaculture opportunity area, poses grave danger to Sarasota marine life, the ecosystem, tourism and the economy. Fish waste, pollution and excess feed may increase red tide blooms. Please join the Virtual Hearing to express your views.
