Description

As the agency reported it.

Oyster shell recycling programs will be expanded and enhanced around the gulf. Shells will be collected from restaurants, recycled, and put back in the environment at oyster reef restoration sites. Shell recycling programs and oyster reef restoration sites will be designed to serve local ecosystem and community resilience needs, with an emphasis on tribes and underserved communities. The restored oyster reefs will provide habitat for a diverse group of species, including recreationally and commercially important fish and their prey. Benefits to communities will include shoreline protection from waves and water quality improvements.
