The fish stocking event was attended by representatives from state, county and local governments and will initiate a major innovative advancement in seafood production that incorporates currently unused byproducts from beverage and food processing facilities. TimberFish will be utilizing a $100,000 grant from Empire State Development, and a $10,000 grant from Directed Energy to continue development of this project.

The current commercial facility at the site will serve to launch larger commercial installations throughout New York State. These can benefit economically depressed areas by creating well-paying jobs and a revitalization of local economies while preserving the aesthetics and biodiversity of the rural lifestyle. A single large commercial facility producing two to three million pounds of seafood per year would directly employ over 40 people and add over $15 million to a local economy.
