Name: Commercial Shellfish Lease Areas

Display Field: LEASE_NUMB

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: The Coastal Resources Division currently monitors and maintains five shellfish growing areas comprised of commercial leases and public recreational harvest areas. Shellfish waters on the Georgia coast are classified as “Approved" or “Prohibited" in accordance with the criteria of the National Shellfish Sanitation Program. Specific zones within shellfish growing areas may be closed to shell fishing because of the proximity to a marina or a municipal or industrial discharge. Georgia maintains approximately 33,000 acres approved for the harvest of shellfish for commercial and/or personal consumption. Only those areas designated as Public Recreational Harvest or those areas under commercial lease are classified as "Approved for shellfish harvest". Shellfish growing area waters are monitored regularly to ensure that these areas remain in compliance with the FDA fecal coliform thresholds. All other waters of the state are classified as "Prohibited", and are closed to the taking of shellfish. It is important to note that, even though some of these areas could potentially meet the criteria to allow for harvesting, they have been classified as “Prohibited" due to the lack of available water quality data. Please contact the GADNR Coastal Resources Division Shellfish Program for the most current version of this layer.
