With two submerged land leases for shellfish culture, do you need a cert for each lease or a single cert listing both?

• A. Yes, One For Each Lease
• B. No, Each Lease Site Will Be Listed On One Aquaculture Cert Of Registration
• C. Not Applicable
• D. Unsure

Answer: (B)

When managing two submerged lease sites for shellfish culture, the certification is typically issued as one Aquaculture Cert of Registration that lists both lease sites. This approach keeps everything in a single regulatory record, making renewals, compliance, and oversight simpler and less duplicative. You still must follow site-specific conditions and reporting for each lease, but they’re both covered under one certificate. Having a separate certificate for each lease would add unnecessary paperwork and make tracking harder. The other options don’t fit standard practice, since a single registration can encompass multiple lease sites.
