• TAMP

    TAMP is an alliance of recreational fishers, commercial fishers and community groups from around Tasmania who are all determined to protect our precious waterways from ‘Big Salmon’.

    TAMP is united by a simple set of demands and concerns about protecting Tasmania’s wild fisheries, coastal waters - and the native species that live in those waters - from industrial salmon farming.

  • DENNES POINT DECLARATION

    In 2020 the Dennis Point Declaration was drafted in support of all Tasmanians who recognise the coasts and waters of our island as their heart country, in recognition of the globally significant riches of Tasmania’s marine world, and to ensure a Tasmanian aquaculture industry that will endure into the future, we call for -

    1. A moratorium on any new industrial fish farms in Tasmania’s coastal, estuary and river waters.

    2. An immediate government led transition out of the sea and into landbased farms.

    3. An independent, empowered and resourced regulator guided by independent science and community values.

  • RESOURCES

    As an umbrella organisation, TAMP provides a coordinated voice against industrial salmon farming, lobbies decision-makers and generates support materials for events and programmes.

  • MARINE DEBRIS

    Report aquaculture marine debris!

    Photograph it - Log it - Report it- Broadcast it

    Debris from aquaculture industry is a big problem and totally unacceptable. It's essential to report it to maintain safety for all who work on or live by the sea. TAMP have a sticker you can put on your car/boat/trailer and give out to others. Contact us if you'd like some.
