A Company in St. George is giving hope to the Municipality of Shelburne Nova Scotia that a 150 million dollar fish plant will be built there.
Cooke Aquaculture has three possible locations in the province and the proposal includes a year-round, 24-hour processing facility for fish harvested in Nova Scotia.
Shelburne official Kirk Cox says municipal representatives recently traveled to the St. George site to tour a processing facility.
He says senior officials from the company are now planning to visit the municipality in a couple of weeks.
Cooke Aquaculture plans to be operational in 2011.
