Sample Letter RE: Oyster Issue

[Raymond]

Good idea Micah but I prefer there to be a percentage of the license taken and used for reseeding by and independent agency. It should be mandatory for the oystermen to pay for reseeding the reefs through a portion of their license since they are reaping the rewards.

I'm with you 100% Raymond and thought about that. Just thinking if we can get a group rolling this would be an immediate impact while we fight for additional regulations on the lake. I won't kid anyone to think I know the amount required for sufficient seeding purposes per area, but I did see it was roughly $50 for 1000 seeds.

Throwing it out there as a potential "weekend warriors" project.

If we do this, I will buy the first 5000 seeds.

I will match. Need help figuring out logistics of where to get them but I am game with this - pending there are no hiccups with bringing in outside seed.

Anyone have insight into this? SaltyCajun Reef??
