<p><span style="font-size:10.5pt; font-family:"Georgia",serif">Siting and permitting are key barriers to the continued development of the marine shellfish aquaculture industry. When designing projects, growers must select sites that avoid and minimize environmental
impacts and conflicts with a wide array of other uses and where they can obtain all required permits. Successful siting therefore requires growers — and regulators — to understand and apply complex scientific, practical, and regulatory information.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.5pt; font-family:"Georgia",serif">The Massachusetts Shellfish Aquaculture Siting Tool (MA-ShellfAST) was developed to assist prospective growers with the siting and permitting process, with a focus on legal compliance and ease of
use. This GIS-based, online tool provides key environmental and legal data for consideration by prospective growers, local officials, and state regulators. By using MA-ShellfAST, growers can identify legal and permitting issues at the outset, easily identify
site boundaries, and work seamlessly with regulators during site selection and permitting.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.5pt; font-family:"Georgia",serif">This webinar will discuss how the tool was developed, demonstrate how it is used in practice, and identify lessons learned during the tool development process.
