Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources(BFAR)

October 23, 2023 Dear Ailyn Angub, Greetings! Thank you for your request dated Oct 10, 2023 01:43:43 PM under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch. Your Request You asked for Guidelines for Research and Fish Hatchery Center. Response to Request This is to inform you that currently, BFAR has no guidelines nor project on hatchery for ornamental fish species such as white goby (as requested). The Bureau is focused on the establishment of legislated hatcheries which produce fish species for food consumption as a contribution to the nation's goal on food security. For the request on the guidelines on Lake Research Center (LRC), BFAR has no LRC per se but we have Technology Outreach Stations (TOS) situated in the regions which I think are sometimes used in doing research. For additional information, please see attached file.
