MARINE Harvest has submitted an application to Highland Council to increase production at its ‘open sea’ salmon farm off the Isle of Muck.
The farm was opened in 2014 as part of an £80 million expansion which has seen the creation of larger open sea sites and six full-time permanent jobs on the island, as well as new houses to accommodate staff.
Now the company hopes to increase production at the farm and, in the process, employ three more people.
