| Project Title | Development of a new seafood market of locally abundant underutilized fish for smaller-scale fishery in Rhode Island |
| Funding Amount Requested (may be an estimate)* | $300,000 |
| List of Co-PIs | Mitch Hatzipetro, CELS/FAVS/Fisheries Center |
| Provide a short paragraph stating why the project is best administered by the Coastal Institute. | This project is suited for Coastal Institute because it addresses two important issues for better utilization of our coastal resources: increasing demand for so-called underutilized fish species which enhances the overall value of RI commercial fishery, and do this in a way that enhances the resiliency of small-scale and/or part-time commercial fishers -- a segment that was mostly overlooked in the past is part of the RI fishing industry landscape. |
