Northern Ontario Aquaculture Association
Regulatory  
The legislative and regulatory systems affecting aquaculture in
Ontario can be very complex.  No single agency is responsible
for all aquacultural regulations.  The principle regulating
agencies are: the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources,
Fisheries and Oceans Canada, the Ontario Ministry of
Environment and local municipalities.  However, depending on
the type of operation or activities, numerous other Acts
administered by various federal and provincial agencies may be
involved.
