this alternative would be of similar size
at full build-out, would use the same net
pen design, anchoring design, phased
development, and operational plans as
the San Diego Site Alternative.
Half-Scale Alternative
This action alternative would
consider an initial projected production
of 2.2 million pounds (1,000 metric
tons) and a final production of 5.5
million pounds (2,500 metric tons) from
3 to 6 years after the project is
constructed and operated. This
production level and project spatial
extent would be approximately half that
described in the San Diego Site
Alternative. The anchoring and mooring
system for a single submerged grid
would use the same engineering design
as the full-scale San Diego Site
Alternative. Only 1 pen grid containing
2 rows of 7 pens (14 pens total) would
be installed. The half-scale alternative
would be analyzed for both the San
Diego and Long Beach Alternative sites.
Action Alternatives Summary
Currently, two location alternatives
and a half-scale alternative are being
considered for detailed analysis in the
EIS. The two location alternatives in
southern California—San Diego and
Long Beach—are considered for the offshore finfish aquaculture site and the
landside facilities that would be used to
receive, process, and distribute the
harvested fish.
