  • Ecological Effects of Project South, an Open Ocean Salmon Farm Proposed for Eastern Foveaux Strait
    Assessment of ecological effects of Project South, an open ocean salmon farm proposed for eastern Foveaux Strait February 2020 Mark James1, Neil Hartstein 2, Hilke Giles 3 Prepared for Sanford Ltd 1Aquatic Environmental Sciences Ltd 2 Aquadynamic Solutions Sdn Bhd 3 Pisces Consulting Contact: [email protected] PO Box 328, Whangamata Coromandel 0210538379 1 Executive summary Introduction Sanford Ltd (Sanford) is preparing a consent application to develop an offshore salmon farm in eastern Foveaux Strait, to the south-east of Ruapuke Island, comprising five separate farming areas, each with 26 ha containing the pens and barge and 157 ha including anchors. The application is for larger farming area for each of the areas to allow for final changes in siting after consultation. The proposed area will likely serve as grower farms operating initially in conjunction with existing smolt and broodstock salmon farms in Big Glory Bay and later from land hatcheries. The nearest farming area of pens would be approximately 10 km from the nearest point on Ruapuke Island and the farming areas will be in water depths of between 52 and 80 m. The Foveaux Strait area is a high energy environment with currents up to 1.2 m s-1 and wave heights of up to 10 m having been recorded. The farming areas will likely be developed in four stages with full development being a grid of 2x5 polar circle pens producing an estimated 5,400 t per year per farming area at full development. Field surveys of the benthic habitat, currents and water quality, and a desktop study using existing information were used to describe the aquatic ecology of Foveaux Strait and the Ruapuke Area in the vicinity of the proposed farm.
