; (4) to develop cost-effective alternative feeds to optimize the use of wild fish, fish oil, plants, and alternative sources of protein and lipids in marine aquaculture feeds and maintain the human health benefits of cultured seafood; (5) to improve techniques for monitoring, assessing, and addressing environmental and socioeconomic effects; (6) to develop and evaluate methodologies to prevent, minimize, and mitigate potential adverse ecosystem and socioeconomic impacts of marine aquaculture, including methods for avoiding interactions with living marine resources; (7) to conduct research to document and increase the potential positive effects of marine aquaculture; (8) to transition innovative aquaculture technologies, including technologies focused on the commercialization of high-value marine species, from laboratory studies to commercial and restoration projects that create new, and support existing, jobs in coastal communities, produce healthful locally sourced seafood, revitalize working waterfronts, support traditional fishing communities, and restore depleted species and habitat; (9) to advance engineering solutions for marine aquaculture, to develop new technologies, to design engineering innovations to reduce the potential for environmental impacts of marine aquaculture facilities, and to refine existing aquaculture cultivation practices; (10) to monitor and assess the effects of environmental changes on marine aquaculture, and develop adaptation strategies; (11) to enhance and develop seafood marketing programs for aquaculture species as part of broader Federal seafood marketing initiatives to promote trade in both wild-caught and farmed seafood under existing grant programs
