The following story was posted this morning on the ABC News Website: Tuna boss threatens to quit Pt Lincoln
Mr Hagen Stehr, chairman of Clean Seas Tuna, has voiced strong concern regarding the possibility that Centrex Metals may be permitted to ship iron ore from Port Lincoln, suggesting he may relocate his business if this occurs.
This raises an interesting topic for discussion. With increasing competition for the utilisation of oceanic waters, how will this be regulated into the future? How will the zoning of appropriate waters for fish farming stack up against competing industries such as oil and gas and mineral exploration, who may be vying to use the same ‘patch’ of water?
