Description
Description | Kingfish Maine plans to build a $100 million land-based aquaculture plant on a 22-acre site in Jonesport, Maine. The project aims to produce 8,500 metric tons of yellowtail kingfish annually and provide 70 to 100 jobs. The project has faced years of legal challenges but was cleared to proceed in April 2025. Proposed ordinance changes in Jonesport would give Kingfish more time and flexibility to begin construction, extending the period to show a substantial start from 24 to 30 months and loosening the definition of substantial start. |
