Description
Alberta's alternative livestock industry, including the production of fresh fish through aquaculture for commercial purposes, has expanded rapidly over the last few years. At the same time, an interest is being expressed to raise fish on public land for commercial or personal use. In addition, there have been several instances where individuals have approached the Lands Division for authority to raise various aquatic species that are not typically associated with fish production (e.g., leeches for medical purposes, aquatic plants for commercial purposes) on public land or in a Crown owned water body.
