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.

TAMP is run by volunteers. The committee is:

President - Diana Shaw (POWW)

Co-Vice Presidents - Trish Baily (TPMP) and Kirsten Bacon (NOFF)

Acting Secretary - Kirsten Bacon

Treasurer - Patricia Kirk (MPT)

Committee members - Deb Dunn (TPMP), James Bunker (BIEN), Cass Wright (NWTAS4 Clean Oceans)

Back in 2020 the Dennes 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.

TAMP and affiliates continue to uphold the spirit of the Dennes Point Declaration, whilst negotiating the most proactive ways forward to best protect Tasmania’s waters in a changing industrial/political environment.

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

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.

Check out the 'News & Actions' section for events, news, activities and actions around Tasmania - you are most welcome to join in and support all the efforts by TAMP affiliates to free our coastal waters from damaging aquaculture industry practices.

You can also view a selection of news clippings and press releases initiated by TAMP members and supporters.
