Genetically Modified Salmon

I read an article this morning about the FDA considering to endorse genetically modified salmon. The fish are modified to constantly produce growth hormones in order to speed up their life cycle. It seems like their potential effect on the environment and our health is not something to take lightly. And there's the possibility that these salmon would be sold without any indication that they've been genetically modified.
The article is brief and informative: http://www.ktxs.com/news/25098481/detail.html
