A plan to expand two fish farms near Shuna has been approved by Argyll and Bute Council.
Marine Harvest plans to merge five local sites into four, closing its Ardmaddy Fish Farm, while only reducing their combined capacity from 9,600 tonnes of biomass to 9,500 tonnes.
In one application, Marine Harvest sought to modify 16 100m cages into 12 120m cages, and increase biomass to 2,500 tonnes, at Poll Na Gille Salmon Farm, east of Shuna Island.
