Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 14, § 235.1 - Screening Requirements for Aquaculture Facilities

All bodies of water or private hatcheries registered for aquaculture purposes shall be entirely within the exterior boundaries of the land owned or leased by the owner of the facility. No aquaculture facility shall be built or operated on a natural water course or lake without the prior written approval of the department. Prior written approval is not required for aquaculture facilities constructed below a spring rising on private property.

For purposes of this section, waters existing seasonally or intermittently and not serving as a passageway or nursery area for anadromous fish are not required to be screened.

Except for those facilities using marine water, all artificial inlets and outlets of such bodies of water or private hatcheries used for aquaculture purposes shall be screened to prevent the ingress or egress of aquatic plants or animals.
