Galveston County declares oyster disaster aid sought
Galveston County Judge Mark Henry issued a local disaster declaration to aid oyster farmers suffering from heavy rain and flooding. The move paves the way for possible government disaster aid pending a state declaration. Oyster beds have died as freshwater from floods dilutes saltwater critical to shellfish. Prestige Oysters warns of tough times as river floods impact the industry.
