LD 620 amends the one page state law on land-based aquaculture. It requires the agency to factor in the wastes exiting from existing land based fish farms, when licensing another in the same waterbody. Ditto when deciding whether to revoke a license of an existing land based salmon farm. Supporters say it will prevent the problems that occured
