WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Sens. Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan and U.S. Reps. Carol Shea-Porter announced that the University of New Hampshire received $747,673 from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration through the NOAA Sea Grant 2018 Aquaculture Initiative. The funding will support a UNH project that seeks to boost U.S. seafood production through a specialized aquaculture training program that will recruit fishermen and farmers from across the northeast, including New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Maine. The training will specifically include workshops on farming steelhead trout and blue mussels.
“The University of New Hampshire plays a critical role in support of our coastal communities through its continued research and development that benefits our local fishermen and invests in our Seacoast economy,” said Shaheen.
