The proposed amendments apply to commercial oyster harvesting and processing in Florida in order to protect the health of oyster consumers. Specifically, the proposed amendments remove multiple cooling options for oyster shellstock and implements one set of sequential time limits for the months from April through November by specifying shipping and receiving temperatures. Additionally, the text of Rule 5L-1.008, F.A.C., was reorganized. Seven workshops were held for interested parties across the state of Florida, in the principal areas of oyster industry activity.
