Nonprofit files lawsuit challenging legislation allowing private leasing of public oyster reefs
SUMMARY: A lawsuit has been filed against legislation allowing the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources (MDMR) to lease public oyster reefs to private entities. Mississippi Commercial Fisheries United argues that Senate Bill 2648, which permits up to 80% of the state’s natural reefs to be leased, is unconstitutional and threatens local fishermen’s livelihoods. The group claims the law undermines public access to the reefs, turning traditional oystermen into dependent workers for private leaseholders. They demand an immediate halt to leasing, transparent impact assessments, and more community involvement in decisions regarding public waters and resources. No comment has been made by MDMR.
