Neighbors Keep Fighting E. Ind. Fish Farm Plans
Bell Aquaculture is planning a $30 million expansion of its fish farm near the Delaware County town of Albany that would more than double its current production of about 3 million pounds of fish a year.
Neighbor Tony Evans tells The Star Press that the operation produces an odor similar to a “rotten fish bowl.'' Neighbors also say water discharged by the farm is causing drainage problems and flooding.
A county zoning board is scheduled on March 27 to consider Bell's proposal to build a feed mill for the expansion about 10 miles northeast of Muncie.
Bell says it's made commitments to address neighbors' concerns.
