Waters Closed
To Fishermen
State fisheries officials closed
Brunswick Cuuuiy coastal waters to
shellfishing Monday and will stop
shrimp harvesting within three
miles of the beach starling today
(Thursday).
The N.C. Division of Marine
Fisheries temporarily closed oyster
and clam beds between Southport
and the South Carolina line Monday
morning due to heavy rainfall over
the weekend.
Rainfall can carry bacterial pollu
tion into coastal waters and make
shellfish unsafe to cat The local
closure was part of an action that
affected waters as far north as Hyde
County, according to a state procla
mation.
Starting today, ocean waters
within three miles of the Brunswick
County coast will close to shrimp
ing to protect white shrimp spawn
ing populations.
Atlantic Ocean waters between a
line running from Cape Fear to
Buoy 6FP and the South Carolina
state line will close to shrimp har
vesting, according to a Marine
Fisheries proclamation.
The temporary closure is com
mon in the late winter and early
spring to protect spawning shrimp
populations.
