Area 1652 closing to oyster harvesting at sunset today

The Department of Agriculture will close area 1652 to oyster harvesting at sunset today.

Area 1652 is the Conditionally Approved Summer North Shellfish harvesting area.

The area is being closed because of heavy rainfall – the area received 2.7 inches of rain over the past 5 days.


Biologists will take water samples from the area on Wednesday to see whether the water quality is acceptable to reopen the area.
