The Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut will shut down its aquaculture business by September of this year.
The tribe invested millions in the venture, spending $7 million over the past five years. But tribal leaders said there was no profit in the business.
So the tribe will suspend all its operations, The New London Day reported. A tribal official previously told The Westerly Sun that only shellfishing in the town of Stonington would stop.
