Client: Grieg Seafood
Location: Gold River, BC
Start Date: April, 2020
End Date: June, 2022
On June 28th, 2022, Grieg Seafood celebrated the completion of the Gold River Hatchery expansion project, known as RAS 34. The project is a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) that recycles water through an aerated treatment system, providing a closed loop inside the building. The facility is completely instrumented, and all controls are automated. The RAS technology greatly reduces water usage compared to older technologies.
The new facility effectively doubled Grieg’s smolt capacity at the Gold River hatchery and the new technology allows them to start to explore keeping the fish in the hatchery for longer, reducing the amount of time required in the ocean. Wedler provided civil engineering, site chemical / process pipe layout, and coordinating registered professional services.
