Scott Matoian Shellfish Grant Project Outline <br /> I intend to acquire 1.9 acres in Hamblin Pond to grow and harvest Oysters, Bay Scallops,and <br /> Quahogs.Primarily focusing on Oysters and secondarily on quahogs and bay scallops. I plan to purchase <br /> oyster seed from an approved and reliable hatchery. The seed will be placed in floating fine mesh bags <br /> and grown to larger sizes. Once they get bigger they will be transferred into larger floating bags and <br /> cages.I will be testing out two products; "F1owN Grow"and OysterGro".Both products are floating <br /> cages consisting of separate compartments to put bags in. <br /> All gear will be secured using ropes, chains, and anchors. All gear will be sunken or removed from the <br /> area during winter months and storms. Floating gear will be in the Northern section of the grant, <br /> providing protection against a Southwest wind from the island. <br /> Area: 1.9 Acre or 81,609 square feet <br /> Distances Between Points: <br /> Point 1- Point 2=403ft <br /> Point 2-Point 3 =203ft <br /> Point 3-Point 4=403ft <br /> Point 4-Point 5=203ft <br /> Total: 1,212 feet <br /> Latitude and Longitude of Points: <br /> Point 1: (41.57453°N,070.50842° W) <br /> Point 2: (41.57349°N,070.5079 VW) <br /> Point 3: (41.57375° N,070.50725° W) <br /> Point 4: (41.57478°N, 070.50776°W) <br />
