22 MAC Pt. 6, R. 5.9

Holding tanks for live bait in the live bait camp must be either circular or raceway type with adequate water flow, provided, however, that rectangular shaped tanks already in use may continue to be used when boards are placed in corners to prevent live shrimp from congregating in corners. Provisions for aerating the holding tanks shall be provided to ensure optimal survival of the bait shrimp. Other types of holding tanks may be permitted if it can be shown that they are at least as adequate as those described above. The Executive Director or his designee shall determine the capability of such tanks prior to the Executive Director or his designee issuing a permit for their operation. MISS.
