Longline & Tidal Basket Aquaculture Installation

The contract involves the installation of longline aquaculture systems utilizing SEAPA-style baskets or tipping bags designed to leverage natural tidal movement to tumble oysters, enhancing their growth and shell conditioning. This work is specifically tied to marine farming operations in the 95521 zip code area, with the project falling under NAICS code 238990 for other construction specialties. The effort is structured as a subcontract and is scheduled to be posted on June 22, 2026, under the oversight of Humboldt Bay Harbor in California. The method of operation relies on environmental forces rather than mechanical intervention, promoting sustainable aquaculture practices while improving oyster quality through consistent motion and exposure to nutrient-rich tidal flows.
