72 MARCH 2014 • WORLD AQUACULTURE • WWW.WAS.ORG the next year, we worked under his leadership to develop a set of proposed standards. This work then led to the official appointment by the USDA of the Aquaculture Working Group (AWG) to work directly with the USDA National Organic Standards Board and National Organic Program towards USDA standards for organic fish and shellfish. The NOAWG proposed standards developed under Richard’s leadership were the beginning point of the AWG’s work. As a result of his contributions, proposed standards for organic aquaculture are consistent with organic principles and are workable. Richard’s devotion to organic aquaculture was part of his vision for good aquaculture. He was a true pioneer in aquaculture, including feed manufacturing, and was an active participant in many facets of our industry. He was a good and respected businessman and a true visionary. The entire aquaculture community will greatly miss his enthusiasm and wise counsel. — George Lockwood, NOAWG Co-Chair MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION — WORLD AQUACULTURE SOCIETY BENEFITS of membership: Quarterly issues of the magazine, World Aquaculture; discounts on WAS books; electronic access to the Journal of the World Aquaculture Society; access to “members only” section of the website; and discounts for WAS meeting registrations.
