Governor Martin O’Malley today thanked the Maryland Natural Resources Police for its enforcement efforts during the six-month oyster season, which ended March 31.
“When we began this large-scale oyster restoration initiative nearly four years ago, we promised to turn things around and do everything within our power to protect this vital species,” said Governor O’Malley. “I want to thank our NRP officers ─ the men and women who continuously put their hearts into protecting our State’s natural resources ─ for their hard work and dedication not only this past oyster season but every single day.”
Preliminary reports show that officers issued 92 citations for violations, the majority of them for harvesting undersized or unsorted oysters and harvesting in prohibited areas. The total is a 3-year low and the second lowest number of citations in five years.
