“At this time we do not have any<br />
comment to make on your planned<br />
proposal and are prepared to allow the<br />
EPA to assess your expansion plans as<br />
you have suggested.”<br />
“I wish to advise that <strong>Marine</strong> <strong>Produce</strong><br />
has the full support of the Western<br />
<strong>Australia</strong>n Fishing Council in its<br />
endeavours to expand production of<br />
barramundi. We appreciate the<br />
challenges in operating in such a<br />
remote area and we wish you well in<br />
regard to your future plans.”<br />
“Thanks for your email and attached<br />
letter. I’ve forwarded that on for you.”<br />
“The Broome Fishing Club sees<br />
aquacultured <strong>Barramundi</strong> as a more<br />
sustainable and environmentally<br />
amenable option to the wild caught<br />
product and as always you will have<br />
our full support.”<br />
