BAD NEWS BITES: Salmon/Seafood Industry, Sixth Post, Updated Dec 8, 2017

I receive almost 30 global press fish farm/seafood industry newsletters every week. In these, I have found a startling amount of bad news, and decided to do a post on it. I had no idea there was as much bad news as there is.

I am at my sixth post. In little more than two years, I have found 2000 BAD NEWS BITES. Some days I am stunned by the amount of bad news in the fish farm/seafood industry. As of April 30/17, you can add another 500 BAD NEWS BITES, from this post, or more than 1,600 BAD NEWS stories since July 1/15, less than two years. Now, add 400 more from the fifth BAD NEWS BITES post: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/2017/05/bad-news-bites-fifth-post.html. And that reaches 2,000.

This is the link to the fourth post, Jan 14, 2017, it has 500 BAD NEWS BITES in it: http://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/2017/01/bad-news-bites.html. it has links to the previous three posts since July 2015.

Here is a summary of the bad news stories:

"In one mouthful, here are the kind of stories I am finding: boom bust industry, billions made and lost, crisis in lice and disease, bankruptcy, workers fired, executives jumping company to company, dividing big bonuses, fraud, corruption, litigation, conflict of interest with government and scientists, using the ocean as a free open sewer – $10.4 Billion in BC alone, killing of whales, seals and sea lions – more than 12,000 in BC so far, slavery, unpaid labour, taxpayers paying millions for diseased, dead fish – $177 Million in Canada, dueling scientists, weakening of laws, unsustainable feed, illegal fishing, jail sentences, disasters in Norway, Scotland, Chile, Canada, bullying of scientists, governments and anyone critical of their business, cartels, collusion, price fixing, fishing down the food chain to Antarctic krill, carcinogens and persistent organic pollutants, fluoroquinolones, chicken feathers in feed, animal feces in feed, eutrophication in a time of global warming, Malachite Green fungicide in USA seafood, fake industry awards, all the wild salmon in the Pacific ocean, more than a billion, put in peril... it goes on."

Look at the last post as it shows the CEO of the company that owns Marine Harvest, John Fredriksen, selling half a billion dollars in stock on the bet that the share price will drop so he can make money buying it back.

Update 2017: of some humour, the share price went up, so I guess John made the wrong bet. Here's a thought: John, raise fish on land, thus increasing supply, thus reducing cost, then MH shares go down, and you buy them back!

Now, to add to the 2,000 bad news stories I have found, here are the BAD NEWS BITES, starting Sept 1, 2017.

Update, Dec 11, 2017. As you can see, I have found 500 BAD NEWS BITES in less than 3.5 months. That means well over 1000 in a year. That is how much bad news there is in fish farms/seafood industry. The new post is here:

496. Tofino Blood Water - Clayoquot Action, Creative chinook:  https://clayoquotaction.org/2017/11/tofinos-tainted-fish-farm-blood/. Blood water contains PRV: "Campbell then drove to Tofino to see what was happening with the effluent from the plant processing Creative Salmon’s farmed Chinook salmon. He was able to sample and film a similar plume of bloodwater. Clayoquot Action was later able to obtain samples from a school of wild rockfish feeding near the outflow pipe. Both Creative’s blood water and the rockfish tested positive for PRV."

See: "Whilst salmon prices and acquisition sprees fueled spectacular growth among seafood's largest firms, value-added processors and tuna firms faced more volatile fortunes.

The high salmon prices propelled Australian farmer Tassal Group to our ranking for the first time, while two Chilean salmon farmers, Agrosuper and Australis Seafoods, sported growth rates of over 80% year-on-year.

Of the 11 firms with growth rates of more than 30% last year, eight are salmon farmers.

The highest growth rate nevertheless goes to Cooke Aquaculture and Cooke Seafood USA, which climbed 25 places thanks to acquisitions that boosted its top line by 90%.

Acquisitions also lifted Royal Greenland 15 places on the list.

At the other end of the spectrum, our ranking confirms that times remain tough for value-added processors. The UK's Young's Seafood and Canada's High Liner Foods fell 15 and five places, respectively."

"Delegates from the Heiltsuk, Haida, Gitxsan, Lax Kw’alaams and Wet’suwet’en nations visited a fish farm that was subject to an oil spill last spring to see for themselves the environmental impacts of the spill. They said they stand with other first nations trying to put a stop to the fish farm industry." And: "We on the North Coast and in the Interior fought so hard to have a ban on fish farms. That is why we don’t have these problems in our waters on the North Coast. Now we need to stand together and shut down these fish farms in the south and let people know this is only a corporate business,” he said."

490.

See: "The Brown’s Bay processing plant received a discharge permit from the B.C. government in 1989, granting the company permission to release 28,000 litres of effluent every day. There are 109 fish processing plants in B.C.; if they are all releasing roughly the same as the Brown’s Bay plant, that’s ten Olympic swimming pools of effluent being released into B.C. waters daily.
The Brown’s Bay plant was inspected in 2013, and found to be out of compliance with the province’s environmental laws. According to Heyman no further inspection took place at the time."
And: "Many of the companies operating farmed salmon open net pens in B.C. are Norwegian, the country behind many of the farmed salmon operations worldwide. Currently Norway does not allow for the discharge of fish processing waste into the ocean."

See: Aquaculture is a concern in this regard, the agency wrote. Most antibiotic drugs are excreted un-metabolized along with resistant bacteria.

"This is a growing problem, since human antibiotic use increased 36 per cent this century, and antibiotic use in livestock is predicted to increase 67 per cent by 2030. Additionally, up to 75 per cent of antibiotics used in aquaculture may be lost into the surrounding environment," the report notes.

486. Fish Farm Salmon in Skagit River - Cooke salmon from broken Cypress Island farm are being caught in the Skagit: http://asf.ca/tribes-catch-more-escaped-atlantic-salmon-in-skagit-river.html. The Lummi Nation has caught 400,000 pounds of them. See: "“I can tell you they are free swimming and they are healthy and alive,” Scott Schuyler, Natural Resources Director for the Upper Skagit Tribe, told The Seattle Times on Thursday. He said tribal fish technicians keep on catching Atlantics as they fish with tangle nets for chum to gather broodstock for the tribal hatchery." And: "“The Skagit is a big river, and the fact we were catching that many in just a little stretch of river when they were out for just a few hours, they have got to be all over,” Schuyler said of the Atlantics, “which is very concerning …""

“The Skagit River is the largest contributor of chinook to the Puget Sound …" What this means is that farmed salmon have been found in two major salmon producing rivers, the Fraser and the Skagit.

485. Fraser Sockeye Listed as Threatened - BC: http://asf.ca/sockeye-salmon-recommended-for-listing-under-species-at-ris.html. "Now, scientists have determined that many populations of Fraser River sockeye are in such alarming decline that they should be listed under Canada's Species at Risk Act.

The recommendation, announced Monday by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada, an independent scientific body that advises the federal government, is the most significant acknowledgement to date of the jeopardy facing the iconic red-bodied fish that was once the mainstay of British Columbia's salmon industry."

Used "over 900 grams of antibiotics per metric ton annually during the three-year period."

From Bill Bryden, about Canada: Grieg's Placentia Bay NL Canada scheme will see 10,000mt (2 million fish) at each of 11 sites and thus will top the very largest single site in Norway at 8,580mt. To put 2 million salmon into perspective, it is nearly 4 times ALL the wild Atlantic salmon left in North America in a single school that never moves.

This is just like Cooke aquaculture blaming the eclipse and high tides for the wreck of its Cypress Island fish farm in Aug 2017, releasing 200,000 farmed fish (of 305,000). Nice try. While Omega says its  been operating for 30 years in Jane Bay, it has taken from its news release that the farm has been sitting on the shore for five years, rotting. Why didn't they take the bags out long ago? And the obvious thing is, if your equipment can't take the weather, what is it doing in the water?

"The Scottish Salmon Company, which supplies Co-op, has 10 farms clustered around Loch Fyne in Argyll. Data provided for six sites show that lice numbers exceeded acceptable levels for a total of 52 weeks. Its Furnace Quarry farm recorded average sea lice numbers of up to 23 per fish for an “astonishing” run of seven consecutive weeks.Nine farms run by Grieg Seafood Shetland, which supplies Tesco with salmon, admitted breaching sea lice levels over the same 10-month period. At one point, it estimated that at its Score Holm site, every fish being reared was infested with an average of 22 adult female lice.
Other sites singled out for breaching sea lice levels include those owned by Marine Harvest, a Sainbury’s supplier."

"A Disgrace: Ten Million Salmon Thrown Away by Scottish Fish Farm Industry in Last Year Alone
SEAFOODNEWS.COM [Herald Scotland] by Rob Edwards - October 9, 2017

The Scottish fish farming industry has admitted that it threw away up to ten million salmon last year – nearly a quarter of its stock – because of diseases, parasites and other problems.

Official figures reveal the tonnages of dead fish that had to be disposed of has more than doubled from 10,599 in 2013 to a record high of 22,479 in 2016. Most are transported south to be burnt at an incinerator in Widnes near Warrington in northwest England.

Campaign groups warn that the industry is facing an “environment catastrophe”, is “haemorrhaging cash” and “shames Scotland”. Companies accept that they have been plagued by disease and sea lice, and that their businesses have suffered.

And: "Lice loads were found to be elevated near farms with ineffective sea lice management, with analyses based on 15 years of field work estimating a 23 percent loss to the Broughton Archipelago pink salmon population. A Salmon Health Initiative paper confirmed that heart and skeletal muscle inflammation occurs in B.C. and appears correlated with piscine reovirus. PRV has been found in B.C. wild salmon. Further study is needed to understand the role salmon farming plays as a disease and pathogen conduit to wild salmon.

"A review just published by Simon Fraser University and led by biologist Michael Price found that Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s wild salmon monitoring is woefully insufficient and that the conservation health of about half of B.C.’s wild salmon populations is unknown. We’re still missing the most basic data."

See: "Living Oceans reviewed all ASC certifications and audits to date. We found emerging patterns with the implementation of the Salmon Standard in Canada that suggest the ASC is lowering its sustainability bar to accommodate current industry practices. Despite the claim a farm must be ‘100 % complaint’ with the Standard, we found B.C. farms regularly rely on ‘variances’ to the Standard criteria in order to be certified. We also found up to a year of the production cycle is never assessed by auditors for compliance. Furthermore, due to inadequate suspension and revocation rules, farms in major breach of the Standard can and have sold their product with the eco-label. For example, a certified farm that experienced 7 sea lion deaths (5 above the Standard threshold), a breach that would have disqualified the farm from initial certification, has twice successfully harvested and entered the market with the ASC certification.

Likewise, problematic findings were found with the MSC certification. Several certified fisheries experienced significant timeline extensions and flexible interpretations of the application of the Standard requirements.   While SeaChoice’s analysis of requirements of certification to directly improve fishery practices’ impacts on habitat, non-target species and ecosystem function to be minimal.

"Washington is the only state on the West Coast that has not forbidden Atlantic salmon net pens in its marine waters." And: "Alaska, California, and Oregon have all banned Atlantic salmon net pens. These states recognized the damage net pens impose on their wild fish populations. In Alaska, Atlantic salmon net pens are prohibited because the risk of disease infection, parasite exposure, and potential damage to wild salmon is too high. Oregon states that Atlantic salmon net pens are prohibited due to their potential to cause adverse ecological and genetic damage. Similarly, in California net pens are prohibited due to concerns about infection, disease, and impacts on wild fish. Washington is the only state on the West Coast that allows this industry to operate in its waters. And not only does Washington allow Atlantic salmon to be raised in open water net pens, it is actively encouraging industrial expansion of this industry."

174. Fish Farm Spin - BC: http://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/value-of-farm-raised-salmon-climbing-fast-industry-report-says. Here is my comment: One has to always look for the real stats when fish farms/DFO states their own. The BC Stats report has figures far below these. See the table: https://fishfarmnews.blogspot.ca/.../fish-farms-are-small....

It says contribution to GDP is a measly $61.9M for all of aquaculture, that there are only 1700 multiplier jobs, and I went out and found that actual employment is only 820 jobs.

And a spin check is always needed. For example, salmon output down is the result of Scotland's lice killing fish (and they paid the highest in lice chemical costs of $483Million last year), Norway's lice killing fish, and Chile fish dying in an algal bloom, caused in part by their own sewage and dumping 75,000MT of dead fish too close off shore. It was down 8.7%. BC fish farms are recasting this as a positive spin story about a global market opportunity.

It goes on.

Let that sink in for a moment: the research says one in three fish are hybrids, it’s not just one escape that’s to blame, and the genetic genie is out of the bottle, because the hybrids are themselves reproducing."

98. Red Flagged Eco-Certification - MSC, only 15% meet standard: http://vancouversun.com/news/local-news/seachoice-raises-red-flags-about-eco-certified-seafood. NO certified BC fish farm meets all conditions, even years later. Karen Wristen, Living Oceans: "“In B.C. they have varied this criterion to allow the government regulatory level of 3 motile lice per fish to apply,” she said. “None of the farms are compliant with the ASC standard.”

The report notes that one certified farm successfully sent ASC certified fish to market twice despite experiencing several sea lion deaths, a breach that should have prevented certification.

Seventeen B.C. salmon farms are ASC certified and about eight more are under assessment. SeaChoice analyzed published audit reports on certified farms.

“It says right in the ASC standard that 100 per cent compliance is required for certification and that is patently not the case,” she said. “I can’t think of one farm that is totally compliant.”"

"The fish appear in poor health.

62.  Cohen Report - LeBlanc says he'll actually do something - more science. Huh, that just gives fish farms another five year pass to use our ocean as a free open sewer. Then they'll say, the science doesn't say that, it says this, and we need five years more science: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/fisheries-minister-dominic-leblanc-sockeye-fraser-river-declining-1.3713332. Asking for science is naive. LeBanc won't be in office by the time his inconclusive science comes in. Here are some of LeBlanc's naive thoughts: ""I think there is a way for world-class, transparent, open and available science and management decisions that are transparent to Canadians to be made with respect to the aquaculture sector."" We don't need science we need to get fish farms out of the ocean just like Norway that is fed up with its environmental damage and is giving out free licences to set up on land.

60. Legislation With NO Teeth - WA: http://asf.ca/that-atlantic-salmon-farm-was-on-its-last-legs.html.This is what Cooke said in Feb, 2017 about conditions on the farm that fell apart: "
The existing steel net pen structure has been in service for approximately 16 years in the marine environment and is due for complete replacement. Steel net pen systems located in the marine environment are subject to the corrosive effects of salt water and to metal fatigue from the constant wave energy, storm events and the extreme forces that are exerted on them from tidal currents. The corrosion on the metal walkway grating and substructures is accelerating and some metal hinge joints show signs of excess wear. Repairing the rusted steel walkways and replacing fatigued metal components of the existing cage system structure in place is not cost effective or practical." Cooke said this to government. Read the rest of the article to see what the government knew and what it did/didn't do.

Here is some:  "The Department of Natural Resources inspected the Cypress Island farm in September 2016. Smillie said DNR does fairly perfunctory inspections, checking on things like whether emergency response kits are well-stocked.

“We don’t have a whole lot of structural engineers on staff to go out and inspect our lease facilities,” Smillie said." And: "
“We rely on them to make sure that their facility is in good shape and doesn’t fall apart,” Smillie said."

Atlantics eat salmon smolts: "Swinomish chairman Brian Cladoosby was out fishing this week, “trying to kill these things.” He said fishermen are catching Atlantics with bellies full of native Pacific salmon fingerlings." And fish caught as far away as Tofino, more than 100 nautical miles from Cypress Is, WA. And past escapes in WA are: "Washington is no stranger to farmed Atlantic salmon escapes, with spills in 1996, 1997 and 1999, including one of 369,000 fish. So far, no instance of crossbreeding between Pacific and Atlantic salmon has been documented." And past stocking has failed: "The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife once tried to establish Atlantic salmon runs to stoke fishing opportunity, releasing the foreign fish in Washington waters in 1951, 1980 and 1981. Many releases also were made in lakes. But none resulted in established runs."
