Description: Per the definition in Natural Resources Article 4-11A-01, “Aquaculture Enterprise Zone” means an area of the Chesapeake Bay approved for the leasing of submerged land or the water column by the Department in consultation with the Department of the Environment and the Wetlands Administrator of the State Board of Public Works. The areas are further described in 4-11A-05 and COMAR 08.02.23.05. The Department has not implemented the use of these areas for shellfish aquaculture leasing and therefore, they are not currently available for application.
