THE COMPREHENSIVE SHELLFISH CONTROL CODE

Overview

RULE:

5L-1.003

Shellfish Harvesting Area Standards

PURPOSE:

This amendment proposes to update the legal descriptions of all shellfish harvesting areas by making minor changes in order to make the legal descriptions easier to read. The simple changes do not require changing the maps, management plans or legal boundaries.

SUMMARY:

The proposed update of the legal descriptions of shellfish harvesting areas will simply add clarifying language to the Conditionally Approved and Conditionally Restricted area legal descriptions similar to the language and phrases utilized in the Prohibited area. The Tallahassee office of the DACS Shellfish Environmental Assessment Section recommended updating the legal language for clarity. These amendments place descriptions, references to shellfish harvesting area map numbers and operating criteria for all shellfish harvesting areas in the document Shellfish Harvesting Area Classification Boundaries and Management Plans.
