Summary
In a book on the law of the sea and climate change, the relevance of the law of the sea for aquaculture may seem questionable: is the law of the sea, in fact, applicable to aquaculture? On the one hand, to a certain degree aquaculture takes place on land territory and/or in fresh waters, and is thereby classified as a land industry. In that case, the relevance of the law of the sea seems quite distant. On the other hand, in Norway and elsewhere, much aquaculture is conducted along the coast – and such installations are subject to coastal state sovereignty in internal waters and the territorial sea (12 nautical miles), according to the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (LOSC) Article 2(1). Thus, legislation concerning aquaculture is mainly national law, and is not based on the law of the sea.
