"Cramming millions of Atlantic salmon in land-based tanks is a welfare nightmare and an ecological disaster," said Don Staniford, Director of $camon $cotland.  "Factory salmon farms are torture chambers - concentration camps for fish - plagued by mass mortalities, infectious diseases and unnecessary suffering.  Discharging a staggering 1 million cubic litres of effluents per day into the Humber Estuary - a RAMSAR, SSSI and Special Protected Area - will inevitably spread viruses, pathogens, bacteria and parasites as well as environmental pollution.  Local residents are revolting against this super-sized salmon farm which, if approved, would be the UK's largest at 5,000 tonnes (the largest salmon farm in Scotland is 3,950 tonnes).  Noise pollution, impacts on wildlife (the site is a safe haven for deer, foxes, badgers, butterflies, bats and birds) and the bad smell emanating from the 40,000 square metre development have already spawned community objections.  Grimsby Town FC - nicknamed 'The Mariners' - may have to swap for their Harry Haddock mascot for Skanky Salmon if this monstrous proposal gets the green light.  That North East Lincolnshire Council is recommending approval without conducting an Environmental Impact Assessment - and without questioning the financial credentials of the fishy investors behind AquaCultured Seafood Ltd - raises alarm bells."

Just a heads up that there will be a peaceful and respectful protest outside Grimsby FC on Tuesday 7 March.
 
 
I just spoke to Humberside Police and there is a police log # of 180 - 1 March 2023.
 
My phone number is 07771 541826.
 
The protest is not against Grimsby FC but against the proposed 5,000 tonne stinky salmon farm which is planned for just over the railway line by Harrington St:
 
 
 
Would we be allowed to unveil a banner at half-time during Tuesday's game vs Newport?
 
Would we be able to set up a photo opp with Harry Haddock and Salmon Salmon (we have stuffed salmon)?
 
If you want further details please let me know.
 
Thanks,

Would it be possible to set up a meeting with AquaCultured Seafood Ltd at the proposed salmon farm site in Grimsby/Cleethorpes on Tuesday (7 March)?
 
I am available to meet at any time during Tuesday 7 March at your convenience. 
 
Could you please share any more information on the proposal?
 
For example, p8 of the screening opinion dated 9 December 2022 (published on 12 December 2022 by North East Lincolnshire Council) it states under "the production of waste":
 
"Up to 1,000m3/day of effluent will be generated from the aquaculture process. The effluent will be treated to a very high standard, using the best quality water filtration technologies developed by AquaMaof to produce treated effluent that is very low in nutrients and suspended solids.  Effluent water will be treated and discharged with surface water through the AWA outfall located within the ABP/AWA ownership".
 
1,000m3 per day equates to 1 million cubic litres of effluent per day - what exactly does "a very high standard" mean in reality?  What viruses, pathogens, parasites, bacteria, chemicals and contaminants will be in the wastewater and treated effluents?
 
And where exactly is the AWA outfall? Does this discharge effluents directly onto Cleethorpes Beach?
 
 
Fish Farming Expert reported on 13 February 2023: "Aquacultured Seafood plans to build a state-of-the-art 5,000 tonne per year salmon facility in Grimsby employing approximately 100 people at the new facility. The project will boost economic growth as the company invests approximately £100 million into the project over the next two years," said a spokesperson for the company. "The project, which has received excellent support from businesses and politicians, will feature cutting edge technology to become one of the most environmentally friendly ways of producing nutritious food." 
 
Could you please provide more details on the £100 million investment?
 
The only accounts filed by AquaCultured Seafood at Companies House in May 2022 (dated September 2021) detail a bank balance of only £16,887.  Where is the other £99.9 million coming from?
 
In terms of "excellent support from businesses and politicians" could you please provide further details.  I am unaware of any businesses and politicians speaking out publicly in support of what would be the UK's largest salmon farm.  
 
Please note a new blog showcasing local objections via:
 
 
I would be happy to showcase AquaCultured Seafood's position. 
 
 
Please also note a peaceful and respectful protest planned for 6pm on Tuesday 7th March (Humberside Police and Grimsby Town FC have been notified):
 
 
 
If you had time to meet at the proposed site on Tuesday 7 March it would be much appreciated (I would also be available to meet at the site on Monday 6 March). 
 
 
Director of AquaCultured Seafood, Craig Anderson (the 'Spy Who Loved Scottish Salmon'), has my contact details and other background information already but I am available on 07771 541826.
 
Thanks,
 
Don Staniford

Subject: Typo in planning application - Davies not Davis

Re: the planning application submitted on behalf of AquaCultured Seafood Ltd in December 2022 via http://planninganddevelopment.nelincs.gov.uk/online-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=documents&keyVal=RMS6JKLJ04300
 
Specifically relating to p25 of the Montagu Evans/AECOM document dated 9 December 2022 published online by North East Lincolnshire Council on 12 December 2022
 
Could you please correct the typo? 
 
It is James Fox-Davies - the 'Aquaculture Evangelist' (according to his Twitter profile and documents published at Companies House) - not James Fox-Davis. 
 
i.e. as in the difference between Steve Davis the snooker player and Steve Davies the footballer.  
 
James Malcolm Fox-Davies is listed by Companies House as a Director of AquaCultured Seafood Ltd along with Colin Craig Anderson who is also Director of the Yuri Lopatinsky-owned companies  Associated Seafoods and Loch Fyne Oysters (the former where he is known as Craig Anderson). 
 
Insofar as you may be required to comply with anti-money laundering laws - specifically the  the Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 - or carry out due diligence checks moving forward with this £75 million investment please note from a press release issued earlier this morning by $camon $cotland:
 
 

Colin Craig Anderson (born in October 1962) is a director in Loch Fyne Oysters along with Viacheslav Lavrentyev.  Both are also directors in Associated Seafoods although he is listed as Craig Anderson (born October 1962). 

 

Both Associated Seafoods and Loch Fyne Oysters are owned by ‘Moscow banker’ Yuri Lopatinsky – outed by the Sunday Mail in March 2022 as connected to Russian intelligence, a notorious KGB double agent and dodgy businessmen including Mohamed Amersi.

Acting for investors and people guilty of illegal surveillance, illegal hacking and illegal money laundering may not be illegal in itself (I'm not a lawyer but your lawyers may be able to advise you in that regard).  However, such behaviour is morally and ethically bankrupt. 
 
$camon $cotland is certainly interested in where the "circa £75 million investment" (p4 of the Montagu Evans report dated 9 December 2022) is sourced from.   The only accounts filed by AquaCultured Seafood at Companies House in May 2022 (dated September 2021) detail a bank balance of only £16,887.  It makes you wonder where the other £74,983,113 is coming from.   
 
Follow the $almoney!
