Interview includes the following on closed containment: 

Westcoaster.ca: The Pacific Salmon forum recently released some recommendations on open-net pen salmon farms. One of those suggestions was that the provincial government design and implement a commercial-scale trial of a closed containment system. 

Premier Gordon Campbell: We think that that’s actually a good idea. We’re working in partnership with the federal government on that. We may be able to find a way that that partnership will work so that we can have a closed contained system where we can see whether it’s economically viable . . .
