Omega fish farm site Taken from public documents	Anger Island Area
	18 open net cages below shows clam beaches eagle’s nest and seal haul out green is Kelp (doubtful so limited)

Aerial photos show typical coastal w boggy interior and little forest values on Azimuth island

Transects by Omega of the site – elementary & superficial – but all that is required

Something Better you say?

It wouldn’t take much

to adapt something like this to Kitkatla area – much more informative

SUMMARY

The site looks acceptable – good currents and llittle high value in vicinity --- only the threat of PSP plankton blooms mentioned in several sources for Anger Island area give pause --- the near by clam beaches need monitoring too
