An Act instructing the Massachusetts Department of Fish & Game to study the feasibility of repurposing the former Moon Island Sewage Treatment Plant for the purposes of fish and shellfish farms

This bill directs Massachusetts' Department of Fish & Game to study whether the former Moon Island Sewage Treatment Plant in Boston Harbor could be repurposed for fish and shellfish farming. The study would examine using the site's large granite tanks (50 million gallons capacity) to improve water quality in Boston Harbor and Quincy Bay, support marine life like crabs and fish, and provide educational opportunities for schools. The department must complete the study and share findings with Boston and Quincy officials, conservation commissions, and state legislators by December 15, 2026. The bill does not create the farms but evaluates their feasibility.
