The space is presently open enough to be used as a classroom laboratory, and in March 2016 we hosted the annual Maine Hatchery Roundtable with over 40 attendees.<\/p>\n

In addition to the main processing room, the building has four attached environmental chambers, where we grow microalgae, macroalgae<\/a>, and sea urchins<\/a>.\u00a0 A small office serves as a microscope lab, and in a separate room at one end of the building is the facility’s work shop.<\/p>\n
