FN0018-Fisheries and Aquaculture Clean Technology Adoption Program Application Deadlines


The Fisheries and Aquaculture Clean Technology Adoption Program (FACTAP) can 
provide funding of up to 75% of project costs to improve the environmental 
performance of the industry.  The funding can support the industry with the 
adoption or adaptation of market-ready clean technologies for aquaculture, wild 
capture harvesting and seafood processing operations.  Key dates for the first 
application intake for 2019/2020 are: 
January 25, 2019: Expression of Interest (Application) Deadline 
February 1, 2019: Project Proposal Template Deadline
April 1, 2019: Successful applicants notified

Those requiring assistance with their application may set up an appointment 
with the Regional Program Coordinator. The following dates are available for 
meetings outside Vancouver:
January 16, 2019 - Nanaimo 
January 22, 2019 - Prince Rupert 
January 24, 2019 - Victoria 

Please contact the Regional Program Coordinator at least 1 week prior to the 
date to set up an appointment.  Other locations are available upon request.

Please note that limited amounts of funding are available to support specific 
types of clean technologies and/or processes. 

Once funds have been allocated to a particular type of project, the likelihood 
of funding for similar projects will diminish. Projects funded in the past will 
receive lower priority for funding.  A list of approved projects can be found
