Resumo: 	The objectives of this research are to evaluate the usefulness of waste heat from steam electric generating stations as an inexpensive and suitable source of warmed seawater for use in aquaculture of American lobsters and to develop the techniques and systems necessary for the commercially viable culture of this species. Growth rates of larval and juvenile stage lobsters are significantly greater in effluent of elevated temperature than at ambient ocean temperature. Water quality analyses suggest that concentrations of heavy metals and chlorinated hydrocarbons are similar in each water source. 1 Culture techniques have been developed for the larval and juvenile stages and current research efforts are directed toward controlling reproduction, reducing cannibalism, refinement of artificial diets, developing methods of disease prevention, and in engineering culture systems to rear large numbers juveniles to market size. Criteria essential to the development of culture systems for the intensive rearing of lobsters and other cannibalistic crustacean species in individual holding compartments are considered. Latest cost projections indicate that lobster culture utilizing these systems may be economically feasible.
