Eric Peters on Tuesday couldn't seem to allay local concerns about his
proposed aquaculture venture in Quahog Bay.
Peters, of Searsmont, hopes to lease 7.5 acres of water north of Snow
Island from the state Department of Marine Resources in order to cultivate and
harvest American oysters and quahogs. The lease would last for 10 years; it
would take three years just for the shellfish to reach maturity.
Tuesday's public hearing, attended by about 50 residents, was required
under the state's application process. The state must make a decision on the
lease within 120 days.
