 The report drew widespread criticism from the aquaculture industry because it called for the industry to move to ocean-based closed containment within five years.According to the report, open net fish farms may contribute to the decline of wild salmon populations through the spread of parasitic sea lice and diseases from the farmed fish to migrating salmon fry.The industry claims that moving to closed-containment is tantamount to ending finfish aquaculture off the British Columbia coast.
